Question

Read the excerpt from "Georgia O'Keeffe: Modernist Pioneer."

In 1917, Stieglitz presented a solo show of O’Keeffe’s work. After a repeat success, more exhibits followed. In the summer of 1918, she left her teaching job and moved to New York to paint full time. There she became a member of a small circle of modernists who were also backed by Stieglitz. She married him six years later in 1924, and their shared vision led to a life of support for each other’s work. Over the next twenty-two years, the two of them enjoyed one of the best partnerships in art history.

Which descriptive detail best conveys the author's viewpoint that Stieglitz and O'Keeffe had a very strong marriage?

A. "backed by Stieglitz"

B. "repeat success"

C. "a small circle"

D. "best partnerships"

Answer 1

The right option is D. "best partnerships"

Answer 2

The descriptive detail best conveying is Best partnerships.

• It is mentioned in the passage, that after leaving her job she had moved to New York and married after six years. This suggests that they both already knew each other.
• The marriage of O'Keefe and Stieglitz is shared towards the end of the passage as they shared the best partnership and a bond for around twenty two years.
• While backed by Stieglitz" and "a small circle" represent the group she joined, repeat success represent the achievements.
• Thus, the correct descriptive is the best partnerships.
