And now, a new painter is ready to join the list, although this one isnt even human.Next month, auction house Christies Prints and Multiples will make history by offering the first piece of art created by artificial intelligence (AI) for sale. The painting is a portrait of a man called Edmond De Belamy, and 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 the French art group Obvious. Laugero-Lasserre, an art collector, called the work “grotesque and amazing at the same time”. This isnt the first example of AI-produced artwork, as AI has already been used to write poems and compose songs. However, many people doubt whether it should be called art at all.According to Russian writer Leo Tolstroy (1828 1910), art is about creating emotion (情感). Its “a means of joining people together in the same feelings”, he once said.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 AI technology used to create the portrait is the result of a lot of effort made by several designers. Together, they “fed” the AI a huge collection of 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 AI art could be the beginning of a new artistic movement. However, not everyone is ready to welcome these high-tech artists just yet.“The human mind is whats behind the AI technology. And the human mind is not a cold, hard fact,” said Oscar Schwartz, a professor of AI. “Rather, it is something thats created with our opinions and something that changes over time.”28. Why does the author mention the artists in Paragraph 1?A. To introduce their works. B. To make an advertisement.C. To present a piece of news. D. To focus the topic on the AI.29. What does the underlined word “grotesque” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Strange. B. Simple. C. Messy. D. Understandable.30. What can we learn about the AI-produced artwork according to Paragraph 5?A. It comes from human works.B. It shows human ability to create.C. It expresses human feelings effectively.D. It is beyond the imagination of humans.31. Compared with the AI, Oscar Schwartz thinks human mind is.A. limited B. decisive C. changeable D. meaningfulDA team of engineers at Harvard University is trying to create the first robotic fly. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of its components is off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies（相互依赖）on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything its connected to,” said Wood.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers fields or on the battlefield. “Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”32. What is the typical characteristic of the robotic fly?A. Its automatic. B. Its very small.C. Its controllable. D. Its quite powerful.33. We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can.A. act as a spy plane B. help do farm workC. fly at a very high speed D. answer many scientific questions34. What is Woods idea about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph?A. It is highly questionable.B. It has wide practical applications.C. It gives scientists interest in flying machines.D. It points to a new direction in studying biology.35. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Harvards Study in the Field of InsectsB. A Breakthrough in Engineering ScienceC. An Interesting InventionRobotic FlyD.

However, immediately after taking pictures with their idols (偶像), the fans asked to get a repayment and got off the plane. 38 They had to go through security checks again, which delayed the flight by over an hour.According to the flight regulations, all passengers need to get off and go through security checks once again even if only one passenger gets off the plane before takeoff. 39Cases of crazy fans buying flight tickets just to follow and get a close view of their idols are common nowadays, reported CGTN. A series of rules were issued in July in order to stop crazy fans from disturbing public security at the airport.“ 40 However, it shouldnt go too far and hurt the public interest. To obey public rules is the best way to follow idols,” commented Peoples Daily.A. To make up for the loss, a sizable amount of money went to 357 passengers.B. As a result, all the remaining 360 passengers had to get off the plane.C. This is in case any dangerous things have been left on the flight.D.
