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.

选项
答案
sowing
解析
空前的of spring提示所填词为名词,本句要表达的意思是仲夏节是农历年的一个更替期,是春天的……农耕活动的结束和夏天的晒干草农活开始的间隙。根据常识,春天的主要农耕工作是播种,所填词可能表达播种的含义。sowing意为“播种”。
