【解析】一个富有的老太太非常喜欢画画，她画了很多画，觉得很漂亮，想把他们送给一所学校。她问她的孙子送给哪所学校，她的孙子说应该送给盲人学校。

【1】after在…之后，表示时间，在句中做时间状语；根据句意可知，这句话应使用there be句型来翻译，表示在某处有某物，句型是there be+名词+介词短语。这篇短文中使用的都是一般过去时态，主语lots of pictures是复数形式，故be动词用were；in her workroom是介词短语，在她的工作室里。

【2】句中的谓语动词是want，句型是want to do sth想要去做某事；give sth. to sb.把某物给某人；remember是动词，记得。

【3】所给的这句话的意思是：在六十岁的时候，她是如此的喜爱它。句中短语at the age of sixty表示在...岁的时候，与原文中when she was sixty years old同义；这样我们就可以找到这个同义句了。

【4】根据上文这个老太太说的话I want to give my pictures to a school可知，她想把她的画送给一所学校，问她的孙子该给哪一所学校，她的孙子回答说把他们给盲人学校。由此可知them指代的是老太太的画。

【5】根据文意可知，当老太太问她的孙子把画送给哪一所学校的时候，她的孙子说给盲人学校。盲人是看不到这些画的，这说明这些画根本不像老太太自己以为的那么好。因此这句话是错误的。
