Cambridge Lectures on Art Intelligence
A public lecture series exploring how human intelligence evolves alongside artificial
intelligence (Al),from education to industry,innovation,and the future economy.
David Hockney's work has shaped modern understanding of perception,attention,and
ways of seeing for more than six decades,insisting on these as active forms of intelligence.
The Cambridge Lectures on Art &Intelligence take place alongside the continued public
presence of his work,including major exhibitions at institutions such as the Serpentine
Galleries.
David Hockney's practice has long emphasized the active role of the viewers,the
experience of time,and the intelligence of looking.These questions remain central as
technologies increasingly influence how the world is seen and understood.The lecture series
extends this inquiry into a wider conversation about human judgement,interpretation,
confidence and inventive thinking in contemporary culture.At a moment when AI is
transforming how images,information,and decisions are produced,the series asks what
forms of human insight,judgement,and interpretive agency remain essential,and how they
are developed,recognized,and sustained within education,culture,and industry.

Lecture dates run from 8th February 2026 to 18th February 2026 (in support of

Many kids love playing sports,but being a professional athlete can be difficult.What will
happen when a boy who loves basketball realizes he may not be tall enough to make it on the
court?For Amar Shah,that realization did not end his dream-it helped him find a new one.
Shah,a journalist and author of the graphic novel Wish I Was a Baller,turned his love
for a famous basketball team into a writing career that began in eighth grade."I knew I
couldn't make it as a basketball player,because I didn't have that needed height,"Shah
shared with a laugh."So,I found my closest way to the court-through journalism."
That choice led to some incredible opportunities.While still in high school,Shah earned
press permission and began interviewing basketball legends.Thinking back on his first
interview with a famous basketball player,Shah said,"Here I am,not even five feet tall,and
he's seven feet.He talked to me for 30 minutes,like we were friends."Kids can use reading
and writing to stay close to the sport they love.There are numerous ways to work in sports
without competing.
In Wish I Was a Baller,Shah shared his professional journey,and he hoped that it would
encourage young people to keep going."Whatever your dreams are,continue striving for
them,because you never know where they'll take you,"he said.
Many sports fans enjoy reading books about the game they love.From player
autobiographies to fictional tournaments,there is something for everyone.Teenage Scholastic
Kid Reporter Asher Freije is an athlete and sports fan who enjoys reading.He shared his
advice for athletes who want to read more."Find books on the sport you love.If you love that
sport,then you most likely will love that book,because it's something you already enjoy,"he
said.He also explained how reading could inspire new interests,sharing that a book about
wrestling once inspired his interest in that sport.
24.What was Shah's original dream?
A.To become a sports journalist.
B.To write stories about basketball.
C.To join a famous journalism team
D.To be a professional basketball player.

Search online and you will find countless DIYbio trends that promise healthier aging,from using
hyperbaric oxygen therapy to sleeping under red lights.But research from Tufts University
points to a much simpler lifestyle change that appears to work:eating slightly fewer calories.
The findings come from CALERIE,short for the Comprehensive Assessment of Long-term
Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy.In the study,143 participants tried to reduce their calorie
intake by 25%for two years,while 75 others continued eating normally as the control group.
Researchers found notable improvements among the participants who reduced calories.
Many shifted their diets away from fats and toward more protein and carbohydrates.Although
the group achieved only about a 12%calorie reduction instead of the targeted 25%,they still
experienced significant declines in blood pressure,LDL cholesterol,and insulin levels
compared with the control group.A paper released earlier this year found that lowering
calorie intake did not reduce the overall nutritional quality of the participants'diets.
"The most exciting part is that we saw these benefits with only a moderate level of
restriction that's feasible for most people.It doesn't have to take extremes measures.For
some people,just skipping a large daily sugary coffee drink can do the trick,"says Sai Krupa
Das,one of the researchers.
Researchers are still unable to understand exactly why calorie restriction boosts health.
One theory is that eating less helps the body generate energy more efficiently while producing
fewer reactive oxygen species,unstable molecules (that can damage cells and contribute
to diseases ranging from cancer to Parkinson's disease.One test confirmed that the
participants in the calorie restriction group had lower levels of these molecules than the control
group.
The CALERIE project is still ongoing.Researchers still do not know whether calorie
restriction works best as a permanent lifestyle or as a shorter-term intervention."I think the
follow-up was necessary given such promising results in the primary study,and it is crucial to
see how things play out over time,"Das says.
28.What is the effective way to slow aging according to the research from Tufts University?
A.Receiving oxygen treatment.
B.Using red lights while sleeping.
C.Cutting down food calories a little.
D.Trying various DIYbio methods.
【高二英语第5页(共10页)】
29.What do we know about the calorie-cutting participants?
A.They took in much less protein.
B.They quitted before the deadline.
C.Their health indicators turned better generally.
D.Their diets were richer than the control group's.
30.What does the underlined word"feasible"in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Strange
B.Suspicious.
C.Predictable.
D.Practical.
31.Why do researchers carry out further research?
A.To figure out the new approaches to restricting calories
B.To explore the long-term effects of calorie restriction.
C.To detect how reactive oxygen species harm health.
D.To explain why calorie restriction improves health.

To the untrained eye,there is very little difference between the three known versions of
the artwork The Lute Player.Almost identical in composition,the paintings all portray a young
subject,in white clothes and with an instrument in hand,turning slightly away from the viewer.
Each appears to carry Italian painter Caravaggio's distinctive mastery of light and shadow.
To art historians,however,there has long been broad agreement:The versions held by
Russia's Hermitage Museum and France's Wildenstein Collection were created by Caravaggio,
while the one at Britain's Badminton House is merely a copy.
A Swiss tech company begged to differ,and it claimed there was an almost 86%chance
that Badminton House's version is authentic.The company's AI model,which was trained to
recognize markers of Caravaggio's style,including shapes,color palettes and compositional
structures,also declared (though with less statistical certainty)that Wildenstein's version
was likely a copy.Its analysis found "a significant difference"between the latter painting's
"visual characteristics"and those of Caravaggio's other works.
The company's declarations have not always contradicted the established scholarship.It
claimed that a long-debated painting of Vincent van Gogh at the National Museum in Oslo had
a 97%chance of being genuine.The Vincent van Gogh authorship was later matched by more
conventional research,including technical analyses and studies of the artist's letters.
The company's authentication approach combines machine learning,deep neural
networks and computer vision algorithms ()To date,the company has produced models
for over 200 artists.In each,the AI is trained on two photographic datasets:a "positive"one,
containing images of recognized paintings by the artist mentioned,and a "negative"one
comprising similar but inauthentic works.The company emphasized that having a"high degree
of similarity"between the two datasets to learn the difference is crucial.
"I have reservations about it.Authentication is rarely just about surface style,"said art
historian Sharon Hecker."You have to know about the workshop,practices,materials,the
condition of the work,the restoration history,and how a particular artist's work evolved over
time.”

32.What do we know about the three versions of The Lute Player?
A.They are recognized as Caravaggio's artworks.
B.They are refused by famous European museums.
C.They look almost the same to non-professionals.
D.They differ greatly in composition and light use.
33.Why is the Vincent van Gogh's painting mentioned in paragraph 4?
A.To prove AI research has its reliability.
B.To show the limits of traditional art study.
C.To compare different creating styles of art.
D.To stress the difficulty in painting creation.
34.What is Sharon Hecker's attitude to the Al authentication method?
A.Supportive.
B.Curious.
C.Indifferent.
D.Doubtful.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。
Normally,inflammation (is beneficial because it is caused by the immune system
to help your body fight off illness-causing bacteria and repair injured tissue.36 If it
doesn't,it becomes chronic(慢性的),low-grade inflammation,which is invisible but can
have harmful effects.Luckily,we can take steps to reduce chronic inflammation by adjusting
our lifestyle.
37 For many years,scientific research has shown that consuming lots of anti-
inflammatory foods-such as fruits,vegetables,whole grains,and nuts-can help
reduce inflammation.In addition,the benefits of consuming anti-inflammatory spices like
turmeric and ginger are highly praised.The same is true for reducing alcohol intake.
Ease your stress.Psychological stress is now recognized as a major cause of inflammation.
It activates the body's fight-or-flight response,leading to the release of pro-inflammatory
chemicals.38 Leisure activities such as meditating or doing yoga can help.To gain the
anti-inflammatory effects,engage in these practices regularly rather than waiting for the
stress to pile up.
Prioritize shut-eye.Insufficient,inconsistent or poor quality sleep is associated with
higher inflammatory markers in the body.Our immune system is regulated in part by the
body's internal clock-when your sleep schedule is irregular,your body's clocks might stop
keeping the same time.39 To avoid this,keep your bedtime and wake times consistent.
Set limits on social media.Social media use steals time you might otherwise spend doing
anti-inflammatory activities like exercising,sleeping and spending time in person with friends.
【高二英语第7页(共10页)】
The solution is to set boundaries on your use.Notice whether you feel in control when using
social media.40
A.Build strong social connections.
B.Make your efforts in the kitchen.
C.Then inflammation is one of the prices you pay.
D.These substances can be cut down by relaxation.
E.If you feel bad afterwards,ask yourself if you can stop.
F.When the battle is over,inflammation is supposed to cease
G.Social connections really change how sensitive the brain is to stress.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Luke grew up in a modest family in the small town of Cedarville.His parents worked
hard to make ends meet,but they always made sure Luke felt loved and secure.After
graduating from high school,Luke moved to a big city to pursue his college degree in social
work.During his studies,he often volunteered at local shelters and community centers.
There,he met many children sleeping on the floor or on old,worn-out couches.Those
children looked tired and unhappy,and their lack of proper sleeping arrangements broke
Luke's heart.He knew he had to do something to change this situation.
Inspired by what he witnessed during his volunteer work,Luke decided to establish an
organization called Sleep in Fantastic Peace (SFP).His motivation was simple yet powerful:
to ensure that every child in need could have a comfortable bed to sleep in.The purpose of the
organization was to build and deliver beds to children across the United States who didn't have
one of their own.
Initially,Luke built beds himself with his family.The effort grew rapidly as local
communities joined,driven by Luke's passion.Over the years,SFP grew steadily.They built
and delivered thousands of beds to children in different states.But Luke always dreamed of
doing something even bigger,something that could make a huge impact in a short period.
That opportunity came when Luke decided to organize a massive bed-building event in the
Charlotte Convention Center in North Carolina.The goal was to build 3,000 beds in just 24
hours for children who didn't have a bed of their own.To achieve this,Luke and his team
worked tirelessly on the planning.They created a detailed schedule,divided the volunteers
into different teams,and arranged for the delivery of all the necessary materials.
On the event day,more than 2,500 volunteers flooded into the Charlotte Convention
Center.They came from all walks of life-students,corporate teams,and families-united by
a single purpose.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The work of building beds began in the volunteers'busy activities.
As the clock struck the 24-hour mark,the goal was met.
