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】______ . [br] 【B1】
选项
答案
northern
解析
空前的介词in和空后的名词part提示所填词为表示方位的形容词。由one can see the______ sun and the night never reaches complete darkness这句话,再结合地理常识可知这种现象应该在斯堪的纳维亚的北部,所填可为northern,意思是“北部的”。
