In the village where I grew up, everyone knew an old man, who lived a simply life and spent all his time painting. The villagers used to admiring his works and he often gave his paintings to his friends. Whenever he was offered money, he would not take them. He said he painted for a pleasure. He once gave one of his paintings to my father, whom actually wasn’t interested in art. Years later I found it in our old house. By that time the old man has died and people started to recognize his paintings as great works of art, which was worth lots of money. An art gallery made me an offer of $5,000 for this painting and I nearly sold it, so then I decided not to. It always reminds me my childhood and of the old man who didn’t really want to make money by paint.

【解析】

試題分析：作者村子里有一位老人擅長作畫，卻不為人所賞識，直到去世才體現(xiàn)出了他的畫的價值，作者有幸收藏了一幅，但是卻沒有賣。

【1】simply→simple 考查形容詞。此處為形容詞作定語，修飾后面的名詞，故用simple。

【2】admiring→admire 考查動詞。此處為固定搭配：used to do“過去常常做……”。

【3】them→it 考查代詞。此處指代前面的money，是不可數名詞，用代詞it指代。

【4】去掉a 考查冠詞。此處pleasure為不可數名詞，for pleasure也可看成固定搭配，“為了樂趣”。故去掉a。

【5】whom→who 考查定語從句關系詞。此處為非限制性定語從句，缺少主語，先行詞為人，應用who。

【6】has→had 考查時態(tài)。根據By that time可知，此處表示過去的過去，故用過去完成時，故把has改為had。

【7】was→were 此處為非限制性定語從句，主語which指代前面的works，復數，故was改為were。

【8】so→but 考查連接詞。畫廊要出高價買，但作者沒賣，故此處為轉折關系，故把so改為but。

【9】me后加of 考查固定搭配。remind sb of使某人想起……。

【10】paint→painting 考查非謂語動詞。前面是介詞by，后面接動詞要用動名詞形式。
