【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forsell 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。

Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.”---Lao Tzu

If you are in a city where everyone rushes, realize that you don’t have to be like everyone else. You can be different. You can walk instead of driving in rush hour traffic. You can be on your iPhone or Blackberry less, and disconnected sometimes. Your environment doesnt control your life---you do. Im not going to tell you how to give you a step-by-step guide to moving slower. __【1】__

1. Do less.

Cut back on your projects, on your task list, on how much you try to do each day. __【2】__ Pick 2-3 important things--- or even just one important thing--- and work on those first. Save smaller, routine tasks for later in the day, but give yourself time to focus.

3__

Meeting are usually a “big waste of time”. And they eat into your day, forcing you to squeeze the things you really need to do into small windows, and making you rush.

3. Start to put off or cancel the unnecessary.

When you do the important things with focus, without rush, there will be things that get pushed back, and that dont get done. And you need to ask yourself: __【4】__What would happen if I stopped doing them?

4. Practice mindfulness.

__【5】__ Don’t care so much about future or the past. When you eat, fully appreciate your food. When you are with someone, be with them fully. When you are walking, appreciate your surroundings, no matter where you are.

Try these things out. Life is better when unrushed. Remember the quote: if nature can get everything done without rushing, so can you.

A. Have fewer meetings.

B. How necessary are these things?

C. Simply learn to live in the present.

D. Focus not on quantity but on quality

E. Give yourself more time to get ready and get there.
