【解析】试题分析:本文对日本纪念死者的盂兰盆节进行了简要介绍。
【1】celebrations 考查名词。由前面的“many”可知,此处应用名词的复数形式celebrations。
【2】On 考查介词。特指在某一天应该用介词on。
【3】hungry 考查形容词。此处应该用形容词表示状语。故填hungry。
【4】to help 考查非谓语动词。特制的灯笼被悬挂在外面是为了帮助死者找到回家的路,表目的用不定式形式,故填to help。
【5】thrown 考查动词的语态。食物被扔进河里,此处应该用被动语态。故填thrown。
【6】it 考查代词。it在本句中作形式主语,真正的主语为句末的不定式。故填it。
【7】that/which 考查定语从句。此句的意思是“在大海附近的小镇里”,town是先行词,后面是定语从句,从句中缺少主语,故用that或which。
【8】guiding 考查非谓语动词。无数的灯笼在大海上漂浮,指引着死去的人们返回他的世界。
【9】the 考查冠词。at the same time为固定短语,表示“在同一时间”。
【10】until 考查连词。人们站在岸边看着灯笼飘走直到看不到为止。故填until。
