Answer 1

【答案】is observed；popularity；when；to；poets；himself；why；annually；To remember；various
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了龙舟节，也就是端午节的由来，端午节是为了纪念战国时期伟大的爱国诗人屈原而发源起来的。

（1）考查动词语态。根据“is a traditional holiday”与后文“which ___1___ (observe) each year over 2,000 years in China to honor Qu Yuan”，holiday节日与observe奉行（习俗等）之间是被动关系，所以应该使用被动语态。故填is observed。

（2）考查名词。“Festival enjoys higher___2___popular) in southern areas”分析句子结构，higher为形容词，后面应该用名词。故填popularity。

（3）考查连接词。“it used to be a day___3___people would use herbs（药草）to drive away diseases”，横线前后均为两个完整的句子，先行词为a day 表时间，故应用时间连接词引导时间状语从句。故填when。

（4）考查介词。“most popular origin is closely related___4___the great poet Qu Yuan”，relate to 与…有关，为固定词组，故填to。

（5）考查名词。“Composing masterpieces like Li Sao, he was regarded as one of the greatest___5___poem) in Chinese history”，分析句子，he为句子主语，greatest 为形容词，后面加名词，再由one of,所以应该使用名词复数形式。故填poets。

（6）考查代词。“he had no alternative but to choose to drown___6___(he) in the river”。句子主语为he，drown himself in the river把自己溺死在水中，为固定句式。故填himself。

（7）考查连接词。根据前文“He died on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month”他死在阴历5月5日，“people decided to commemorate（纪念）him on that day”人们决定在那天纪念他，前后两句表示因果关系。故填why。

（8）考查副词。“people decided to commemorate（纪念）him on that day___8___annual)”分析句子，结构完整，不缺少成分，commemorate为动词，因此只能用副词修饰，故填annually。

（9）考查不定式。“___9___(remember) his death on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, people celebrate the festival in___10___(vary)ways”，分析句子，后句为完整的句子，不缺少成分，一句话不能出现两个谓语，所以前句可以用不定式引导，表目的。故填To remember。

（10）考查形容词。“ people celebrate the festival in___10___(vary)ways”，in为介词，ways为名词，所以只能用形容词修饰ways，故填various。
