语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国农民丰收节的由来及举办的目的。
1．making 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处应用动词­ing形式作结果状语，故填making。
2．has been set 考查动词的时态和语态。根据语境可知，此处表示动作已完成，且that指代的a natinal festival与set up之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用现在完成时的被动语态，故填has been set。
3．traditinal 考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空处作定语修饰culture，因此用其形容词形式，故填traditinal。
4．f 考查介词。remind sb f ...是固定短语，表示“使某人想起……”，故填f。
5．prductin 考查词性转换。空处位于形容词agricultural之后，与the rural ecnmy并列，因此用其名词形式，故填prductin。
6．themselves 考查代词。由主语they可知，空处应用其反身代词作宾语，故填themselves。
7．Althugh/Thugh/While 考查状语从句。由语境可知，这里是说虽然近年来大多数农村地区的经济增长了，但农民收入并未大幅增加。由此可知，空处引导的是让步状语从句，需注意首字母大写，故填Althugh/Thugh/While。
8．a 考查冠词。gap为可数名词，此处表泛指，且large的发音以辅音音素开头，故填a。
9．t grw 考查非谓语动词。encurage sb t d sth 意为“鼓励某人做某事”，故填t grw。
10．are attracted 考查动词的时态和语态。根据主句的时态可知，从句应用一般现在时；又因为turists与attract之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，故用一般现在时的被动语态，故填are attracted。
