1.which to which all agreed是"介词+关系代词"引导的定语从句。
2.too 该句使用了"too ... to ..."结构。
3.with "with a red face"在句中作方式状语,修饰谓语动词said。
4.pockets 由空格前的"the others"和"their"可知此空填名词复数形式。
5.was focused 主语"attention"与谓语动词动作"focus on"之间是被动关系,用被动语态;这里描述过去的事,用一般过去时。
6.buried "buried in dirt under the floor"是过去分词短语作定语,修饰coin,相当于定语从句"which was buried in dirt under the floor"。
7.Hurrying "Hurrying to Blustering's home"是现在分词短语作状语,分词动作"hurry"与逻辑主语"Grandin"之间是主动关系。
8.Because 此处回答上句why提出的问题,故用because回答。
