【解析】

苏格兰的首府爱丁堡以它的节日而 闻名,它全年有十二个节日。本文主要介绍了其中的两个节日。

1考查定语从句。句中先行词为festivals,在非限定性定语从句作half of的宾语,故用关系代词which。句意:其中有一半在七月和八月庆祝故填which。

2考查非谓语动词。句中名词festivalshold之间为被动关系,故用过去分词作定语。句意:这里是每年夏天在爱丁堡举行的两个著名节日。故填held。

3考查时态。主语 The first Edinburgh International Festival是谓语动词动作的承受者需用被动语态;during Wor1dWarⅡ是过去时间作状语谓语动词用一般过去时。句意:第一次爱丁堡国际节是在第二次世界大战期间策划的。故填was planned

4考查副词。later意思是“后来以后”,在句中作状语。句意:后来,世界各地的演员、音乐家、舞蹈家和歌手都来表演。故填Later。

5考查名词。空格处所填单词在句中作宾语需用 perform的名词形式且用复数形式。句意:世界各地的演员、音乐家、舞蹈家和歌手都来表演。故填performances。

6考查介词。as在此处表示“作为”。句意:它很快赢得了世界最伟大的庆典之一的美誉。故填as。

7考查连词。前后两个分句在意义上是并列关系and连接。句意:任何人都可以在节日里表演,许多艺术家也参与其中。故填and。

8考查非谓语动词。to watch shows for free是不定式短语作目的状语。句意:你可以免费去皇家麦尔大道看演出故填to watch。

9考查时态。时间状语 every year与一般现在时连用。句意:这个节日每年举行一次。故填takes。

10考查形容词。空格处所填单词在句中作宾语补足语需用 attract的形容词形式。句意:许多孩子觉得节日很吸引人。故填attractive。

语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力,在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意,在读懂短文的基础上,结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析要解决好语法填空,离不开坚实的语法知识,有了坚实的语法知识才能对语言进行正确的分析和判断,从而答对题目。本篇语法填空考查到的语法知识有时态、词性、从句以及固定短语等,其中定语从句考查,先要找准先行词,然后分析先行词在定语从句中所作的成分,最后确定关系词。例如小题1中,考查定语从句,首先找到先行词为festivals,再分析此先行词指代物,在非限定定语从句中作介词of的宾语,所以最终确定用关系词which。
