文章介绍了傣族的传统节日——泼水节。

1．Its 根据该空后的origin可知，此处应用it的形容词性物主代词形式。

2．with with此处表示“具有”。

3．where 根据句子结构可知，该空是非限制性定语从句的关系词，先行词是“an outdoor market”，关系词在非限制性定语从句中作状语，故填where。

4．is held 主语“a dragon boat race”是谓语动词动作hold的承受者，需用被动语态；这里说的是一般性情况，用一般现在时。

5．colorfully 空格中所填单词在句中修饰谓语动词，需用colorful的副词形式。

6．wishing wish与逻辑主语they之间是主动关系，故用现在分词短语作状语，表示伴随。

7．happiness 该词与luck，health并列作wish的直接宾语，故用happy的名词形式。

8．wetter 句型“the ＋比较级．..，the＋比较级．..”表示“越……越……”。

9．to join invite sb. to do sth. “邀请某人做某事”。

10．whether whether ... or ... 是固定用法，意思是“不管……还是……”。

B
Does the early bird catch the worm? That is not necessarily so according to recent research __1__ (conduct) by an American professor.
Research shows that when work schedules agree with people's natural sleep patterns, they produce __2__ (high) quality and more creative work because they are more focused, less stressed and generally healthier. __3__ opposite is also true —when employees do not have plenty of sleep, they are more likely __4__ (make) mistakes and suffer from workplace injuries.
__5__ (sad), for many of us, our work schedules do not agree with our natural body clocks. Many companies start the work day too early, __6__ (put) their work schedules in disagreement with their employees' body clocks. That disagreement, along with the __7__ (press) from work at all hours of the day and night, means that many people suffer __8__ “social jetlag (社会时差)”. In other words, their bodies are always in the wrong time zone.
The sad news is __9__ most of the working population today are getting up earlier than they should. It is high time that these companies __10__ (adjust) their work schedules so that their employees could have enough sleep.

早起的鸟儿一定有虫吃吗？研究表明工作时间与人的生物钟相一致时，工作效率较高；反之，工作效率较低。

1．conducted “conducted by an American professor”是过去分词短语作定语，修饰research, 分词动作conduct与逻辑主语research之间是被动关系。

2．higher 本空与本空后的“more creative”构成并列，故填high的比较级。
