五、阅读理解。
On November 7th, 2024, a portrait（画像）of Alan Turing was sold for more than 1,000,000 in New York, the US. The portrait was unusual — its creator wasn't a human. In fact, it was the first artwork by a robot to be sold at auction（拍卖会）.
In 2019, Aidan Meller and a robotics company created Ai-Da. People named her after Ada Lovelace, an English computer programmer. Lovelace believed that robots could do more than just maths.
Ai-Da can paint and make art using a robotic arm. She has cameras in her eyes. They can look at what's in front of her. The cameras send pictures to an AI programme. The programme then tells Ai-Da's arm where to put the pencil.
The members of the team got the idea to draw a portrait of Alan Turing after "talking" with Ai-Da. They chose Turing because he was a great computer scientist. He was so important in the history of AI that people called him "the Father of AI".
At first, Ai-Da made 15 portraits of Turing. She chose three of them and then decided what she wanted the final artwork to look like, and printed it onto a canvas（画布）. Ai-Da then finished the portrait herself.
The portrait of Turing makes history. The team wants more and more people to talk about AI and how it plays a part in our lives, not only in maths and science.
( ) 25. What is Ai-Da?
A. A programme.
B. A team.
C. A robot.
D. A company.
( ) 26. Why did the team choose to draw a portrait of Turing?
A. Because Turing taught Ai-Da how to draw.
B. Because Turing was "the Father of AI".
C. Because Turing believed Ai-Da could draw.
D. Because Turing was a wonderful artist.
( ) 27. What can we know from the passage?
A. There are some front cameras on Ai-Da's arm.
B. The team members chose three of Ai-Da's works.
C. Ai-Da decided what her artwork should look like.
D. Human artists helped Ai-Da to finish the portrait.
( ) 28. What's the purpose of creating this portrait according to the last paragraph?
A. To let more people talk about AI.
B. To describe how to make robots.
C. To show robots can do anything.
D. To tell people to learn about history.
