C
For centuries, what makes human creativity so precious is not only the final products it
yields, but also the effort behind their creation. But in a world where AI can generate anything
with the click of a button, how do we distinguish what truly matters? How does human-made art
survive?
Throughout history, the most famous works of art, literature, and music have carried a
sense of labor, dedication, and mastery. We don’t just admire the end product; we admire how it
came to be. Masterpieces like Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” sustain not simply for their artistic
beauty, but for the human stories they carry. They remind us that art is not just about beauty or
skill—it is about intention, persistence, and what makes us human.
As AI floods the world with instant beauty, we’re entering an era of “aesthetic inflation”,
where perfectly composed images, poetic style, and movie-like storytelling are available to
anyone, instantly and at no cost. This makes us think about when beauty is effortless and
endless, does human creations still have value?
But human imperfection isn’t a weakness—it’s part of who we are, shaping our
understanding of humanity. Our struggles, mistakes, and limitations aren’t just difficulties to
overcome—they’re part of what gives life meaning. In this light, AI’s ability to create perfect art
feels almost unnatural—a rejection of the struggle that gives creativity its weight. It may achieve
technical perfection—but at the cost of the original energy that makes art stir feelings within
people. Even at its most impressive, AI-generated art often feels empty. It has no real emotions
or experiences, and no clear creator, failing to create unexpected surprises and arouse shared
emotion with audience.
Therefore, to preserve meaning, selection and context become more crucial. As AI can
produce endless content, the human elements like context, narrative and the reasoning behind
art become the true value source. Also, AI can be a creative collaborator rather than a
replacement, refining ideas while keeping human imperfection and feeling, and acting as an
amplifier(放大镜) of human vision.

A. They represent unique human characteristics.
B. They showcase brilliant artistic creation skill.
C. They are created through long production processes.

A. To demonstrate AI’s efficiency in art creation.
B. To prove that AI-generated art is more affordable.
C. To criticize the overuse of technology in art creation.
D. To stress the devaluation of beauty due to mass production.
30. How does the author develop the argument in the passage?
A. By giving examples.
B. By giving definitions.
C. By making comparisons.
D. By making classifications.
31. The author wrote this passage to.
A. show ways to perfect art with AI
B. teach how to create art in the age of AI
C. argue why human art still matters in the AI age
D. introduce a new revolution in art creation brought by AI

答案： C
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了在人工智能时代,人类艺术为何仍然重要,并探讨了人类艺术与人工智能生成艺术之间的区别和价值。
28.D [细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Masterpieces like Van Gogh's ‘Starry Night’ sustain not simply for their artistic beauty, but for the human stories they carry. They remind us that art is not just about beauty or skill—it is about intention, persistence, and what makes us human. (像梵高的《星夜》这样的杰作之所以能流传至今,不仅仅是因为它们的艺术美感,更是因为它们所承载的人类故事。它们提醒我们,艺术不仅仅是关于美或技巧,更是关于意图、坚持以及我们作为人的本质。)”可知,像《星夜》这样的杰作在人工智能时代仍然有价值,是因为它们包含了人类的情感深度和创作努力。故选 D。]
29.D [推理判断题。根据第三段“As AI floods the world with instant beauty, we're entering an era of ‘aesthetic inflation’, where perfectly composed images, poetic style, and movie - like storytelling are available to anyone, instantly and at no cost. This makes us think about when beauty is effortless and endless, does human creations still have value? (随着人工智能以即时之美充斥世界,我们正进入一个‘审美通胀’的时代,在这个时代,任何人都可以立即、免费地获得构图完美的图像、诗意的风格、电影般的叙事。这让我们思考,当美变得轻而易举且无穷无尽时,人类的创作是否还有价值?)”可知,作者在第三段提到“审美通胀”是为了强调由于大量生成而导致的美的贬值。故选 D。]
30.C [推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Masterpieces like Van Gogh's ‘Starry Night’ sustain not simply for their artistic beauty, but for the human stories they carry. (像梵高的《星夜》这样的杰作之所以能流传至今,不仅仅是因为它们的艺术美感,更是因为它们所承载的人类故事。)”、第四段中的“But human imperfection isn't a weakness—it's part of who we are, shaping our understanding of humanity. Our struggles, mistakes, and limitations aren't just difficulties to overcome—they're part of what gives life meaning. In this light, AI's ability to create perfect art feels almost unnatural—a rejection of the struggle that gives creativity its weight. (但人类的不完美并不是弱点,而是我们的一部分,塑造了我们对人性的理解。我们的挣扎、错误和局限不仅仅是需要克服的困难,它们也是赋予生命意义的一部分。从这个角度来看,人工智能创造完美艺术的能力几乎是不自然的,它否定了赋予创造力意义的挣扎。)”以及最后一段“Therefore, to preserve meaning, selection and context become more crucial. As AI can produce endless content, the human elements like context, narrative and the reasoning behind art become the true value source. Also, AI can be a creative collaborator rather than a replacement, refining ideas while keeping human imperfection and feeling, and acting as an amplifier (放大镜) of human vision. (因此,为了保留意义,筛选和语境变得更加重要。由于人工智能可以产生无穷无尽的内容,像语境、叙事和艺术背后的思考等人性要素成为了真正的价值来源。此外,人工智能可以成为创意合作者,而不是取代者,它在保留人类不完美和情感的同时,完善想法,并充当人类愿景的放大器。)”可知,作者通过比较人类艺术和人工智能生成的艺术来展开论述。故选 C。]
31.C [推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中的“But in a world where AI can generate anything with the click of a button, how do we distinguish what truly matters? How does human - made art survive? (但在一个只需点击按钮就能生成任何东西的人工智能世界里,我们如何区分什么才是真正重要的?人类创造的艺术如何生存?)”可知,作者写这篇文章是为了论证在人工智能时代,人类艺术为何仍然重要。故选 C。]
