【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了中国东北部哈尔滨拥有丰富的自然冰雪资源，在那里，人们会制造和使用冰灯，还会举行各种关于冰雪的活动，欢迎广大游客前来。

【1】考查定语从句。分析句子可知，its arctic climate后接了一个定语从句，先行词是its arctic climate，指物，在从句中作主语，所以用which/that。故填which/that。

【2】考查名词的数。分析句子可知，fisherman在此句中作主语，因为它的并列主语the local farmers是复数形式，所以此空也应是名词的复数。故填fishermen。

【3】考查副词。分析句子可知，simple在句中要修饰动词made，副词修饰动词，所以此空应用副词形式。故填simply。

【4】考查时态。分析句子可知，从句缺乏谓语动词；主句谓语动词was用一般过去时，主从句时态要保持一致，所以此空谓语动词用一般过去时。故填froze。

【5】考查冠词。分析句子可知，主语是hole，谓语是was（表单数），所以主语应用单数，用a表泛指，首字母要大写。故填A。

【6】考查固定搭配。result in是固定搭配，意为“形成”。故填in。

【7】考查形容词。分析句子可知，festivals是名词，需要形容词来修饰，所以用形容词traditional。故填traditional。

【8】考查代词。分析句子可知，long history of development是名词短语，应用形容词修饰，所以用形容词性物主代词its，指“冰灯的”。故填its。

【9】考查现在分词。分析句子可知，此句无连词且有一个谓语动词，所以此空用非谓语动词；主语The 36th session of Harbin Ice and Snow Festival和动词cover是逻辑上的主谓关系，表主动，所以此空用非谓语中的现在分词（doing）。故填covering。

【10】考查固定搭配。A variety of是固定搭配，意为“各种各样的”。故填variety。
