Read the dialogue below:
Thalia: "Hey, did you hear about the new art gallery opening downtown? They say it's got some really unique pieces from local artists."
Blaise: "Yes, I did! I read that some of the artwork explores themes like urban loneliness and the impact of technology on our lives."
Thalia: "Exactly. One of the reviews mentioned a painting that uses dark shades and fragmented images to depict a city skyline. It's supposed to reflect how disjointed city life can feel."
Blaise: "Sounds interesting. I wonder if they're planning to have events or artist talks. Sometimes hearing directly from the artists adds a lot to understanding their work."
Thalia: "True. But I also appreciate forming my own interpretations first, then seeing if they align with the artist's ideas."
Blaise: "Good point! Art's so subjective − I think it's meant to evoke different responses in each person. Are you planning to visit soon?"
Thalia: "Definitely! I think it'll be a chance to see how these artists portray familiar themes in ways that might challenge or change our perspectives."

Based on Blaise's response to Thalia about artist talks, what can we infer about his approach to experiencing art?

HBO's 'The Last of Us' is a video game adaptation that's actually good

By Lauren Forristal

January 13, 2023

"The Las! of Us is HBO's post-apocalyptic thriller based on the popular video game. lt debuted on Sunday, January 15, 2023, on HBO channels. The series has nine episodes in total and lollows the plot of the 2013 game in which a fungus outbreak turns half of the world's population into flesh-eating zombies - a.k.a. "clickers."

Starring "The Mandalorian" actor Pedro Pascal as Joel (a hardened middle-aged survivor tormented by the trauma of his past), and "Game of Thrones" actress Bella Ramsey as Ellie (a feisty, 14 year-old girl), "The Last of Us centers around these two characters who, at first, want nothing to do with each other. Joel and his confidant, Tess (played by Anna Torv), are tasked with smuggling Ellie out of the quarantine zone in Boston and across the U.S. As the story progresses, Ellie and Joel's dynamic shifts as they start to depend on each other.

"The Last of Us" is HBO's first foray into adapting a video game into a series. After so many video game adaptation fails, the show is a relief to many "Last of Us" Ians. lt was co-written by the game's creator, Neil Druckmann, so there was little room for it to flop in the first place. HBO's "The Last of Us" is Druckmann's love letter addressed to the millions of loyal fans that help keep the decade-long franchise alive.

On the surface, "The Last of Us" may just seem like another survival story with zombies. However, the HBO series doesn't focus on dramatic, long-winded shootouts and shots of the undead. lnstead, it focuses on the human relationships between the uninfected as their world turns more uncertain by the minute.

But what makes this show so great, in our opinion, is the fact that viewers don't need to play the game to understand it. Although HBO's "The Last of Us" is very accurate to the timeline of the game and has Easter eggs sprinkled throughout, there are some key differences that help the story speak to a larger audience.

Adapted from https://techcrunch.com/2023/01/13/the-last-of-us hbo-series

ln the extract, "The series has nine episodes in total and follows the plot of the 2013 game in which a fungus outbreak turns hall of the world's population into flesh-eating zombies" (first paragraph), the underlined pronoun refers to:
