Helga Stentzel's Clothesline Animals combine charming images as fine art prints in various sizes.
As an artist whose style she calls“household surrealism(超现实主义)”,she works in various media and has
a large collection of works. Instead of throwing an old pair of pants or T-shirt away,Helga Stentzel puts her tired
garments out to the farm. By hanging them on a simple clothesline she sets up and folding them artfully that look
like animals,she takes wonderful pictures. Some are shot in real locations while others are digitally placed in
environments in charming form with appealing colors.
Siberian-born Stentzel has cooperated with many respectable and well-known brands, one of which is Hogar
Verde,a bio-friendly laundry products brand in Ecuador. For them she has created the adorable clothing illusicons
(错觉)for a print ad campaign ,which also drew attention to the endangered animals shown within, like
dinosaurs, polar bears and so on.
Stentzel's practice started from her childhood in Siberia, where she spent hours surveying her grandmother's
carpet, woods and random objects for recognizable forms, including a pile of buckets looking like the Leaning
Tower of Pisa.
In what seems a very simple gesture,Stentzel's works employ household items and turn them into surrealist
images that uncover different reading layers. From food to clothes, the artist is inspired by everyday olojects and
gives them a second life through her creative and really poetic personal angle.
“I stare at things longer than socially acceptable! It can be anything —a chair, a noodle hanging off the
fork,a lamp post in the middle of the road. Observation is a form of thinking for me. I really enjoy studying colors,
shapes and textures—with no expectation, simply admiring their unique beauty. Very often there's nothing more to
it,but sometimes BOOM!—a creative idea hits my brain, and it makes a link between sliced bread and wrinkled
skin of a French bulldog. It's very unpredictable,”Stentzel said.
24. How did Stentzel create an artwork according to paragrapl2?
A. By designing clothes on software.
B. By painting animals in various colors.

C. By taking photos of animals on the farm.
D. By hanging clothes folded in animal shapes.
25. What is Stentzel's source of inspiration?
A. Daily items. B. Tourist attractions.
C. Random surveys. D. Childhood adventures.
26. Which of the following can best describe Stentzel's fine art prints?
A. Complex and digital. B. Meaningful and creative.
C. Poetic but commercial. D. Ordinary but bio-friendly.
27. What can we learn from Stentzel's story?
A. Art can give people a second life.
B. Artworks are from life yet above life.
C. Creation is from intentional observation.
D. Cooperation results in adorable artworks.
C
Could the next Ernest Hemingway or Jane Austen be a well-engineered Al software program? It's a question
becoming increasingly pressing as machine language-learning software continues to evolve.
Much of this is just nerves. Today's Al creative writing programs are not yet at a stage of development where
they pose a serious threat to Colleen Hoover or Charles Dickens. But while attention continues to for us on the
possibility of a blanket takeover of human literature by Al,far less consideration has been given to the prospect of
Al co-working with humans.
Earlier this month,American sci-fi writer Ken Liu, who had been awarded Hugo and Nebula to his name,
joined 12 other professional authors for a writing workshop on Google's Word craft. This Al tool, a language
generating model, is not yet publicly available but is advertised as an AI-powerel writing assistant that can, when
given the right instruction from the writer,provide helpful descriptions, create lists of objects or emotional
states,and even brainstorm ideas.
The writers at the workshop, however, emerged with mixed reports.“Word craft is too sensible. Wow!”Robin
Sloan wrote.“But‘sensible’is another word for predictable, overused and boring. My intention here is to produce
something unexpected.”
I'm unconvinced that writers awarded the Nobel Prize have much to fear from Al. Their work, and that of
countless other rnove lists,short story writers,dramatists and poets,is too particular,too beautifully unique. Even if
a model learned what they had done in the past, it would not be able to predict where their creativity might take
them in the future. But for authors who write following a pattern, Al might step in, first as assistants before some
day to authorship.
Production-line novels are nothing new.In the 1970s,Barbara Cartland,who wrote more than 723 books in her
lifetime,many of which are romance bestsellers,would read her novels for her secretary to type up at the
remarkable rate of roughly seven chapters a week. But already machine has replaced the secretary's role. Perhaps
creative writing software isn't that far from replacing the Mrs. Cartlands of today.
28. Which aspect of Al calls for more attention?
A. Its damage to our nerves.
B. Its progress in literary studies.
