【详解】21.句意:人们想要结束旧的一年并迎接新的一年。
根据“the old year and welcome the new one”可知,此处指“结束”旧的一年,finish意为“结束”,符合语境。spread“传播”;carry“携带”;decorate“装饰”,均与“旧年”搭配不合逻辑。
22.句意:在春节到来之前,家人们会准备好他们的房子并贴上春联。
根据“their houses and put up Spring Festival couplets”可知,节前需“准备”房子,prepare意为“准备”,符合语境。respect“尊重”;strike“击打”;climb“攀爬”,均不符合节前大扫除的语境。
23.句意:许多家庭聚在一起包饺子或做其他美味的菜肴。
根据“make dumplings or other nice”可知,此处指制作食物,dishes意为“菜肴”,符合语境。moments“时刻”;symbols“象征”;block“街区”,均不属于食物范畴。

根据“dragon boat”及端午节习俗可知,此处指龙舟“比赛”,races意为“比赛”,符合语境。travellers“旅行者”;beauties“美景”;hearts“心脏”,均与节日活动无关。

26.句意:他们等到午夜迎接节日的到来。

32.句意:当地人在这一天齐聚一堂,享受自己的劳动成果。此处需要一个形容词性物主代词,在句中表示他们的,修饰名词labor。主语local people对应人称代词they,变形为their,the fruits of their labor他们的劳动成果。
33.句意:茶节活动包括采茶比赛、制茶演示和文艺表演。此处需要一个谓语动词原形,在句中表示包含、包括。主语activities为复数,一般现在时;后文列举各项活动,因此选择动词include。
34.句意:采茶比赛要求人们在规定的时间内采摘尽可能多的茶叶。此处需要动词过去分词,构成被动语态,在句中表示被要求。固定搭配be required to do sth.(被要求做某事),因此选用require变形required。
35.句意:采摘茶叶最多的人获胜。此处需要形容词最高级,在句中表示最多的。比赛规则:采摘茶叶最多的人获胜;many最高级most,the most tealeaves最多的茶叶。

40.句意:总之,云南采茶节是云南庆祝茶叶丰收的一项特色文化活动。此处需要关系代词引导定语从句,在从句中作主语,指代先行词event(事物),所以选择which。
