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.

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”。
