69.D70.B71.C72.A
69.解析:
这是一道主旨题。
文章主要讲述作者退休后开始学习绘画的故事,表面看似乎在讲如何学习绘画。
但是最后一段提到了pianoplayingandreading,并根据“itiswonderfultohavesometimedingwhatIwanttodo”可知作者的目的是讲退休后丰富的生活。
70.解析:
这是一道推理题。
从第一段“perhapsIwastryingtorecoverfromthelossofmyfather,”可知作者想从思念父亲中转移注意力,从而推理出作者十分想念父亲。
71.解析:
从“…foundhiswatercolorstobetheclosesttohowIthoughtgoodwatercolorsshouldlook”作者发现AndrewWyeth的画是最接近作者认为最好水彩画的标准,也就是说作者认为AndrewWyeth的水彩画最好。
72.解析:
根据最后一段“Thereisatimeforeverythinginmyworldanditiswonderfull…”可知作者很享受这种艺术生活。
