【2】句意：人們?cè)陉帤v五月初五通過吃粽子、舉行龍船比賽來慶祝端午節(jié)。

eating吃，動(dòng)名詞；to eat不定式；ate過去式；was eating過去進(jìn)行時(shí)。by為介詞，表示通過某種方法，后接動(dòng)名詞。故選A。

【3】句意：這個(gè)節(jié)日開始是在有著超過2000年歷史的戰(zhàn)國(guó)時(shí)期。

vacation旅行；history歷史；date日期；day一天。結(jié)合句意可知，此處表示“有……歷史的”。故選B。

【4】句意：節(jié)日的日期就是屈原去世的日期。

when當(dāng)……時(shí)，關(guān)系副詞；where哪里，關(guān)系副詞；why為什么，關(guān)系副詞；what什么，不作定語從句關(guān)系詞。根據(jù)定語從句先行詞the date可知，此空指代時(shí)間，用關(guān)系副詞when。故選A。

【5】句意：他想要楚國(guó)皇帝對(duì)抗秦國(guó)，但是被拒絕了，被發(fā)配到遠(yuǎn)離家鄉(xiāng)的地方。

fighter戰(zhàn)士，名詞；fighting對(duì)抗，動(dòng)名詞；fight對(duì)抗，動(dòng)詞原形；to fight不定式。want to do sth.表示“想要做某事”。故選D。

【6】句意：他在其他國(guó)家逗留期間，他寫很多詩來表達(dá)對(duì)楚國(guó)的強(qiáng)烈感情。

much很多，修飾不可數(shù)名詞；a lot許多；many很多，修飾可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)；lots許多。feelings為可數(shù)名詞的復(fù)數(shù)，可以用many或者a lot of/ lots of修飾。故選C。

【7】句意：在屈原死亡之后，楚國(guó)的人們?nèi)ャ枇_江，為他們喜愛的偉大詩人哭泣。

die死，動(dòng)詞；dying垂死的，形容詞；死亡，動(dòng)名詞；dead無生命的，形容詞；death死亡，名詞。此空為名詞of格，表示“屈原的死亡”，用名詞death形式。故選D。

【8】句意：在屈原死亡之后，楚國(guó)的人們?nèi)ャ枇_江，為他們喜愛的偉大詩人哭泣。

emperor皇帝；doctor醫(yī)生；poet詩人；teacher老師。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知，屈原是一名偉大的詩人。故選C。

【9】句意：一些人往江里扔雞蛋和葉子包著的米來喂魚，為了讓魚遠(yuǎn)離屈原。

in order to為了；so that以便；in order that為了；以便；as a result結(jié)果是。so that和in order that后接從句，排除B和C；as a result為副詞短語，通常修飾整個(gè)句子，排除D；in order to do sth.表示“為了做某事”。故選A。

【10】句意：對(duì)中國(guó)人來說，現(xiàn)在端午節(jié)已經(jīng)成為一個(gè)傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。

modern現(xiàn)代的；traditional傳統(tǒng)的；international國(guó)際的；new新的。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知，端午節(jié)是中國(guó)的傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。故選B。
