Ⅰ．阅读理解(每小题2．5分，共20分)

A

(2025·河北承德高二上期末)For many, denim (牛仔布) is a type of cloth; but for London­based artist Ian Berry, it's a creative medium．For the last two decades, Berry has used the navy blue cloth to create various portraits (肖像), and even photorealistic descriptions of California．And his latest creation continues to reveal the unexpected and innovative ways denim can be used．Titled Secret Garden and recently on display at the Garden Museum in London, this work reimagines a peaceful setting with a fish pond, flowers, and plants—all made from recycled denim jeans．

The Secret Garden show was first exhibited at the Children's Museum of the Arts in New York in 2017 and has since been displayed in various site­specific locations and galleries worldwide．Originally designing it for a young audience, Berry aimed to inspire children to reflect on our interaction with nature．

“The idea came from thinking many kids don't have their own gardens and thinking of community gardens located between buildings and trying to inspire them to seek them out，” Berry says．“It also gave the opportunity to talk about sustainability as well as helping young minds think about where things come from．” The artist even showed the kids a

cotton plant to explain where jeans come from．“It was amazing to see so many confused at the idea，” he recalls．“It enabled educators to talk about how in the show plants were turned into pants, then back to plants again．”

While the most recent Secret Garden show isn't specifically designed for children, it still arouses a childlike sense of wonder．Visitors can walk through the denim garden path and find plants hanging above them．Various plants and flowers are depicted in shades of indigo (靛蓝色)．There's even a peaceful pond at the heart of the garden, featuring denim koi fish, and a central water feature．Every area of the garden showcases such an impressive level of details that it's easy to forget that the entire show is handmade from denim．
