Read this piece of sport news and answer the
following question:
Nikola Jokic’s Historic Triple-Double leads
Nuggets over Kings.
In a stunning display of basketball prowess, Nikola
Jokic’ of the Denver Nuggets achieved a rare 35-
point, 22-rebound, and 17-assist triple-double
against the Sacramento Kings, marking the first
such performance since Wilt Chamberlain. This
game was part of Jokic’s impressive run of five
consecutive triple-doubles, with his latest feat
accomplished before the fourth quarter even
began. Jokic’s performance was highlighted by a
remarkable long-range shot attempt, which, while
not confirmed as one of the longest in NBA history,
certainly added to the spectacle of the night. The
Nuggets clinched a 132-123 victory, with fans and
analysts alike lauding Jokic’s skills, suggesting he
might be the best player in the world today and
potentially one of the greatest ever.

Text 1A3-II
The argument for the existence of life in different places in
the universe can lead to endless and aimless (but fascinating)
speculation. Why assume that aliens so far advanced
technologically are still bound by the chains of aging bodies?
As we see our own technology advancing, and our minds
becoming ever more entangled with digital devices, we can
envision a kind of transhuman future whereby our mind’s
essence, what we (loosely) identify with our inner self and
memories, becomes immaterial, soullike, tethered to reality
through information alone. In his novel 2001: A Space Odyssey,
Arthur C. Clarke speculated that aliens would have broken away
from carbon-based and robotic machine structures so “that the
mind would eventually free itself from matter (…) and if there is
anything beyond that, its name could only be God.”
This is where astrotheology begins, as we envision aliens
as the techno-version of godlike creatures, with the obvious
subtext that one day we are going to get there too. So, not only is
their technology magic to us, but their very existence becomes
equivalent to a supernatural presence — omniscient,
omnipresent, and undetectable by our feeble human senses and
machines. Such aliens are indistinguishable from gods inhabiting
the heavenly realm, being as elusive as countless deities have
been throughout human history. They exist only in that intangible
dimension of faith.

Art and technology have long inspired each other, but
recent advancements are driving their fusion like never before.
From AI-generated art and immersive experiences to new
ownership models, the creative landscape is evolving in ways we
could barely imagine a few years ago. This fusion of creativity
and innovation isn’t just adding to the world of art. It’s
redefining it, making us rethink what art can be and who has the
tools to create it. One such innovation is interactive art.
With interactive art, artists can break down traditional
boundaries between the creator and the viewer. Participatory art
involves the audience directly, allowing them to influence the
outcome of the artwork itself. Artists are using technologies like
motion tracking, sensors, and facial recognition to create
installations that change based on viewer movement, expression,
or even mood.
This level of interactivity invites viewers to move from
passive observation to active participation, making them a part of
the artwork’s story. This trend reflects a cultural shift toward
collaboration and personalization, where audiences expect to be
involved in the creative experience. Participatory art installations
are not only transforming gallery experiences but also allowing
viewers to experience art as an unfolding story that changes with
each interaction.

Text 1A15
Last year, I had a strange dream. My father and I were
walking through a canal with difficulty as thousands of fish were
released around us. In the dream, I knew that the fish thought
they were drowning, as if they had to face death before becoming
adults. The next day, my father told me that when I was three, he
had taken me to see fish being put into a pond. I could not
remember it, but the vision had stayed in my mind. Memories,
like images, can return years later in unexpected ways.
Today, it is common to see old images suddenly appear
online. We spend hours looking at photos that record our daily
lives in ways never seen before. For young people under
twenty-five, who have grown up with social media, childhood is
no longer private or mysterious. According to Kate Eichhorn, a
media historian at the New School, this constant exposure is sure
to affect how identity develops, although we are not yet sure
exactly how.
Eichhorn explains that there are two sides. On the positive
side, children and teenagers have more control than before. In the
past, adults were the ones who decided how childhood should be
remembered, using books, photo albums, or home videos. Today,
young people can create and share their own images without
depending on adults. This gives them the power to tell their own
stories and decide what to remember about their lives.
On the negative side, social media can make it difficult to
leave the past behind. We are not the only ones posting—our
friends and families also share moments of our lives, often
without asking us. This makes it hard to forget mistakes or
change identities. Eichhorn warns that the danger now is not that
childhood disappears, but that it might never end, because the
past is always visible online.
It would, indeed, be surprising if we could see painful
memories as finished and gone. But most difficult experiences
are not captured on screens. Social media shows only part of life,
often the happy or triumphant side, and leaves out the tears and
struggles. What remains online is rarely the full truth, but
fragments that stay with us, shaping how we remember ourselves.
Nausicaa Renner. How Social Media Shapes Our Identity.
Internet:<www.newyorker.com> (adapted).
It is correct to conclude from text 1A15 that what makes it
difficult for young people to “leave the past behind”
