    Explanation:

    - The sentence is: "He was ready (1)______ on the portrait." It suggests that the artist was about to begin or continue an action.

    - Option 1: to work

    - This implies the artist was prepared to start working on the portrait. It sets an intention or immediate future action.

    - Correct Answer: "to work"

    - Option 2: worked

    - This is the past tense, which doesn't fit here, as the sentence is looking forward in time.

    - Option 3: working

    - This is the present participle, which would not follow "ready" in this context without "to" preceding it.

    - Option 4: work

    - This is the bare infinitive. It would not naturally follow "ready" without "to."
