The Mid-summer Day. a hundred-year-old tradition in Scandinavia, falls on June 22nd or 23rd, when the sun will reach its highest point in the sky, to create the longest day of the year. In【B1】______part of Scandinavia, one can see the【B2】______sun and the night never reaches complete darkness.
Many places celebrate Mid-summer on St. John’s day, June 24th, while in Sweden it is honored on the Friday【B3】______ to June 20. Many centuries ago this day was to pay 【B4】______ to water, fire and plants. It was also a time to cleanse one’s soul. However, over time, this holiday lost much of its【B5】______meaning. Actually, Mid-summer marks a change in the farming year, specially the break between the completion of spring【B6】______ and the hard work of summer hay-making in Scandinavia, and in such Eastern European countries as Estonia and Lithuania.
How did and do people celebrate the festival?
Family and friends get together to【B7】______ themselves with such wonderful food as herring(鲱鱼),【B8】______potatoes, sour cream, bread, and beer, followed by strawberries or fresh fruit. After the meal, people would dance.【B9】______. Now it is just for fun.【B10】______—remember, the sun does not set at all in Scandinavia at this time of year!【B11】______.
【B5】
选项
答案
religious
解析
空前的物主代词its和空后的名词meaning提示所填词为形容词。上文的cleanse one’s soul,pay…to water,fire and plants都属于宗教信仰和精神的范畴,所填词可能表达“宗教的,精神的”含义。religious意为“宗教的”。
