Answer 1

【答案】

 

 but 

 because 

 carefully 

 herself 

 for 

 hanging

  bought

  more

 a 

 who

【解析】本文主要講述一位老奶奶76歲才開始學(xué)畫畫，并成為了美國最著名的藝術(shù)家之一的故事。

 but  前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

 because  后面接的從句是她轉(zhuǎn)行開始畫畫的原因。從句也可視作時間狀語從句，填when。

  carefully  修飾謂語動詞painted，作狀語，用副詞。

 herself  由后文“開始賣作品給別人”可知，她先只是自己畫給自己看，取悅于自己。

  for  表示交換用for，sell sth. for…意為“以多少錢賣某物”。

  hanging  是非謂語動詞短語作定語，修飾名詞works，因works與hang(懸掛)是主動關(guān)系，用現(xiàn)在分詞短語作定語。

  bought  與liked和set out并列，一起作謂語，時態(tài)也應(yīng)一致。

  more  因他喜歡她的畫，所以他開始尋找“更多”Grandma Moses 的作品。

 a  為了把Grandma Moses 的作品介紹給別的藝術(shù)家，所以他“舉行了一次展覽”。

 who  引導(dǎo)定語從句并在從句中作主語，先行詞是Grandma Moses。
