Claude Monet,Pablo Picasso and Leonardo da Vinci ...the art world has never lacked talent.And now,a new painter is ready to join the list,although this one isn't even human. Next month,the auction house (拍卖行) Christie's Prints and Multiples will make history by offering the first piece of artwork created by artificial intelligence for sale.The painting is expected to be sold for up to $ 10,000. The work,which features a man with a mysterious look on his face,was created by software developed by a French art group.Nicolas Laugero Lasserre called it "strange but amazing".This isn't the first artwork produced by Al.However,many people doubt whether it should be called art at all. According to Russian writer Leo Tolstoy,art is about creating emotion.So,if the emotion behind art is what makes it,the ability to create and use tools is what makes human beings different from other species.And as a tool itself,the Al technology used to create the portrait is the result of a lot of efforts made by several designers.They "fed" the Al many paintings from the 14th to the 18th centuries,until it was able to work out how to make similar paintings of its own. The introduction of Al art could be the beginning of an artistic movement.However,not everyone is ready to welcome these high-tech artists. "The human mind is what's behind the Al technology.And the human mind is not a cold,hard fact," said Oscar Schwartz,a professor of AI. "Rather,it is something that's created with our opinions and something that changes over time."(1)Why does the writer mention these famous artists in Paragraph 1? ______A.To introduce talented artists' works.B.To make an advertisement for famous artists.C.To explain a new art form-AI.D.To introduce a new painter-AI.(2)What can we learn about the Al produced artwork according to Paragraph 5? ______A.It results from human works.B.It beats human artworks completely.C.It expresses human feelings effectively.D.It is beyond the imagination of humans.(3)What does Oscar Schwartz think of the human mind compared with the AI? ______A.Limited.B.Difficult.C.DecisiveD.Meaningful.(4)What's the main idea of this passage? ______A.n auction house will make history by selling AI artworks.B.A great many artists think AI-produced artworks are amazing.C.AI technology can be used to create portraits with the designers' efforts.D.AI artworks have come out,but different people hold different opinions.

题目解答
答案
(1)D.推理判断题。根据第一段"And now,a new painter is ready to join the list,although this one isn't even human.(现在,一位新画家准备加入这个名单,尽管这位画家甚至不是人类)"结合下文对AI艺术家的介绍可知,作者在第一段提到了这些著名的艺术家就是为了引出这位非人类的新的画家Al。故选D。
(2)A.细节理解题。根据第五段"And as a tool itself,the AI technology used to create the portrait is the result of a lot of efforts made by several designers.(作为一种工具,用于创作肖像的Al技术是几位设计师努力的结果)"可知,Al制作的艺术品是人类努力工作的产品。故选A。
(3)C.推理判断题。根据最后一段的"The human mind is what's behind the Al technology.And the human mind is not a cold,hard fact,"said Oscar Schwartz,a professor of AI."Rather,it is something that's created with our opinions and something that changes over time."(人工智能教授奥斯卡;施瓦茨说:"人工智能技术的背后是人类的思维。而人类的思维并不是一个冷酷无情的事实。相反,它是由我们的观点创造的,并且随着时间的推移而改变。")"推知,Oscar Schwartz认为与AI相比,人类的思维是具有决定性的。A.Limited.有限的;B.Difficult.困难的;C.Decisive.决定性的;D.Meaningful.有意义的。故选C。
(4)D.主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段"The introduction of AI art could be the beginning of a new artistic movement.However,not everyone is ready to welcome these high-tech artists.(AI艺术的引入可能是一场新的艺术运动的开始。然而,并不是每个人都准备好欢迎这些高科技艺术家)"可知,文章主要介绍AI艺术品已经出现,但不同的人对此持有不同的观点。故选D。
