f New Mexico drew O’Keeffe in. She spent hours just watching the sky change. Because the light was so clear, she felt like she could see for the first time. The beauty of the land renewed her. She couldn’t wait to start painting. Cow and horse skulls and desert flowers filled her canvases (畫布). The colors of the desert inspired O’Keeffe. As a result, she made new choices in her artwork. “The color up there is different, ” she explained. She loved the dusty blues and greens. That August, O’Keeffe went home to New York. It was the start of a pattern. Each spring, she traveled to New Mexico to paint. These trips restored her spirit. Then, in the fall, she would return to New York. There, she showed her work. Each time O’Keeffe visited New Mexico, she explored a little more. The bleached animal bones and skulls that O’Keeffe found excited her because she could see their special beauty. The bones didn’t mean death to O’Keeffe. To her, they showed the lasting beauty of the desert. The landscapes, clear light, and bright colors also spoke to her. She often painted closeups of the rocks and mountains. Later, she began to travel more in search of new ideas. However, she always came back to New Mexico. As O’Keeffe grew older, her eyesight began to fail. Still, O’Keeffe wasn’t ready to give up. Her friend Juan Hamilton helped her work with watercolors. He also taught her to sculpt. As a result, she made art into her 90s. When she died at the age of 98, Hamilton sprinkled her ashes over the desert. Her body became part of the land that had touched her art and her life. 【文章大意】本文是一篇記敘文, 講述了畫家喬治亞今天早晨他確實起得很早, 但還是像往常一樣遲到了。工人們只花了三年時間就建成了這個巨大的機場。3.
