25、 Early last year, a French art group known as Obvious stated that their artificial intelligence(AI)had managed to "create" art. Christie's (佳士得拍卖行) was expecting less than $ 10,000. In the end, it was sold at $ 432,500!
The painting was the first piece of AI art to have been sold at auction (拍卖). Soon questions rang through the media: Is this art? Who is the artist? How about the owner? Are machines now creative, too?
All good questions——but too early. The technology is far from advanced, as Obvious suggested, because the public is completely confused about what AI is, and what it is able to do.
In fact? The painting was just one of the countless artworks AI could produce. It was the team behind Obvious that chose this one. And they got involved in the whole process. They first programed (编写程序) the AI, and then they chose 15,000 existing paintings to train the software. Connecting the painting with the algorithm (计算程序) was just a clever marketing tool. AI did not produce the painting on its own at all.
Dozens of artists are using the same software as Obvious, but none of them are worried about being replaced. As they build the machine themselves and work with it every day, they know how limited it is. What interests the artists is co-creation: the way AI lets them go beyond their natural ability.
Artists also laugh at the idea that AI is creative. It certainly creates things, sometimes in new and effective ways, but it does so without a purpose. It is the artist who explains its output (输出). “You make a fire and produces interesting shapes, but in the end the fire is not creative. AI is a glorified (美化了的) campfire," said one of the pioneers of using AI in art.
【1】What can we know about the painting sold at auction?
A.It was created by a French artist alone.
B.It was sold at a much lower price than expected.
C.It was the first piece of AI art in the world.
D.It attracted a great deal of media attention.
【2】Paragraph 4 mainly talks about ________.
A.what kind of paintings AI could create alone
B.How AI produced the painting in its own way
C.Why the painting was connected with the algorithm
D.who made it possible for AI to create the painting
【3】It can be inferred from the passage that the AI technology can ________.
A.produce countless artworks B.program on its own
C.think independently D.replace the artists
26、 “Da-da-da daaaaah! ” These four notes are strong and full of power(力量). Even if you don't know Ludwig van Beethoven(1770-1827), you have probably heard these notes before.
This year is the 250th anniversary(周年)of Beethoven's birth. Born in Germany, he is one of the greatest musicians in history. The four opening notes above comes from his Symphony No.5(第五交响乐, also known as Fate(命运交响乐).
Like this symphony, many of Beethoven’s works are rich in emotion(情感). They probably came from his hard life. He started to lose his hearing in his 20s. But he chose to face this pain and turn his feelings into music.
In Symphony No.5, for example, you can hear anger and grief(悲痛)in the powerful notes. But as the music goes on, it sounds like a man who is moving from darkness into light. In the end, when the strings(弦乐)and drums play together, you know that the man has beaten fate.
“I will seize(扼住)fate by the throat; it shall certainly never wholly overcome(战胜)me,” Beethoven once wrote. This spirit of his music will never stop giving people strength.
Ludwig van Beethoven died on March 26, 1827 at the age of 56. About 20,000 people went to his funeral(葬礼)in Vienna, Austria in 1827. Schools were closed and military(军队)was there to keep order. In 1977 Beethoven's Symphony No.5 was sent into outer space by the US Voyagerprobe(“旅行者号”飞船).
【1】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Symphony No 5 is strong and full of joy.
B.Beethoven was a famous British musician.
C.Bad fate never made Beethoven give up music.
D.Beethoven stopped his work because of illness.
【2】What made Beethoven’s music rich in emotion?
A.He had many fans and friends. B.He experienced a lot of pain.
C.He had a great talent for music. D.He forgot everything except music.
【3】Symphony No.5 shows that Beethoven _________.
A.has finally overcome difficulties B.enjoyed the darkness in his life
C.wanted to bring his music to space D.decided to live a quite different life
【4】What can we infer from this passage?
A.Hard life and bad fate can help a musician create great music.
B.We needn5t worry, instead we should take everything as it comes.
C.Beethoven5s music can bring happiness to a person's hard life.
D.Beethoven's music has the power to encourage people to beat fate.
