【解析】試題分析：本文對日本紀念死者的盂蘭盆節(jié)進行了簡要介紹。

【1】celebrations 考查名詞。由前面的“many”可知，此處應(yīng)用名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式celebrations。

【2】On 考查介詞。特指在某一天應(yīng)該用介詞on。

【3】hungry 考查形容詞。此處應(yīng)該用形容詞表示狀語。故填hungry。

【4】to help 考查非謂語動詞。特制的燈籠被懸掛在外面是為了幫助死者找到回家的路，表目的用不定式形式，故填to help。

【5】thrown 考查動詞的語態(tài)。食物被扔進河里，此處應(yīng)該用被動語態(tài)。故填thrown。

【6】it 考查代詞。it在本句中作形式主語，真正的主語為句末的不定式。故填it。

【7】that/which 考查定語從句。此句的意思是“在大海附近的小鎮(zhèn)里”，town是先行詞，后面是定語從句，從句中缺少主語，故用that或which。

【8】guiding 考查非謂語動詞。無數(shù)的燈籠在大海上漂浮，指引著死去的人們返回他的世界。

【9】the 考查冠詞。at the same time為固定短語，表示“在同一時間”。

【10】until 考查連詞。人們站在岸邊看著燈籠飄走直到看不到為止。故填until。
