Answer to Question 1

Answer: a

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. The term is plein-air painting, which is French for open air.
2. Claude Monet and other Impressionists painted outdoors, in front of their subjects, so as to capture the true optical colors of the scene.
3. A typical subject is Monet's Grainstack (Sunset) in open air.
4. He painted the colors of the grainstack as it was registered in his eye by the natural light; thus he used reds and greens as the stack appeared at sunset.
