named Racing Horse 是过去分词短语作定语,修饰painting;

5. Qi Baishi’s style of painting often leaves the audience guessing and makes them use their imagination. 齐白石的绘画风格常常给观赏者留下猜想空间,使他们充分发挥想象。
这是一个简单句,谓语动词是leaves 和makes ,
guessing 和use their imagination 分别接在谓语动词后作宾语补足语。
在使役动词make, have, let 后作宾语补足语的不定式常省去to 。如:
Let me have a try. 我试一下。
They make me clean the big room once a week.
6. In the painting ,a young woman sits alone and is deep in thought .
画面中,一个少妇独自坐着,陷入沉思。
这是一个简单句,主语是a young woman ,谓语是sits 和is 。
deep in thought 习惯搭配,意为“沉思”。
比较:alone 和lonely
alone 多指客观上是独自的,孤单的,没有感彩,只能作后置定语;
lonely 多指主观上感到孤独,带有感彩,可作前置定语。
alone 和lonely从汉语的角度看,alone表示“单独”lonely表示“孤独”。
