【答案】
【1】artists
【2】known
【3】carefully
【4】herself
【5】for
【6】hanging
【7】bought
【8】more
【9】a
【10】who
【解析】
文章大意:很少会有人在76岁时考虑开始一份新工作,但是一位美国艺术家做到了。本文讲的就是这位美国艺术家的故事。
【1】artists。固定结构one of +复数可数名词,表示“其中之一”。
【2】known。固定结构be known as…意为“作为……而闻名”。
【3】carefully。修饰谓语动词painted,作状语,用副词,故填carefully。
【4】herself。由后文“开始卖作品给别人”可知,她先只是自己画给自己看,取悦自己。故填herself。
【5】for。表示交换用for,sell sth.for…意为“以多少钱卖某物”。故填for。
【6】hanging。非谓语动词短语作定语,修饰名词works,因works与hang(悬挂)是主动关系,用现在分词短语作定语。故填hanging。
【7】bought。与liked和set out并列,一起作谓语,时态也应一致。故填过去式bought。
【8】more。因他喜欢她的画,所以他开始寻找“更多”Grandma Moses的作品。故填more。
【9】a。为了把Grandma Moses的作品介绍给别的艺术家,所以他“举行了一次展览”。故用不定冠词a。
【10】who。引导定语从句并在从句中作主语,先行词是Grandma Moses。故填who。
