Как рассуждать (принцип)
1. Если действие совершается НАД подлежащим — нужен пассив: \(be + V_3\). Проверяй вопросом «праздник сам празднует? нет — его празднуют»:
- №1: факт, повторяется каждый год → Present Simple Passive: is celebrated;
- №6: Moscow … in November 1612 — город освободили → Past Simple Passive: was liberated;
- №8: The modern holiday … in December 2004 → was introduced;
- №12: Concerts and historical exhibitions … — подлежащее во множественном числе, наши дни → are organised.
2. Причастие после существительного (без \(be\)) — это определение. Если перед глаголом уже есть подлежащее и сказуемое, вставляем только \(V_3\) (или \(V_{ing}\)):
- №4: a volunteer army led by … began to fight — «армия, возглавленная Кузьмой Мининым, начала…»;
- №7: The victory, remembered as an important moment, became…;
- №14: people from different ethnic groups living in Russia can stand together — «люди, живущие в России».
3. Сказуемое согласуется с подлежащим.
- №2: Its history goes back — история (ед. ч.) → -s;
- №5: Minin called on people — события 1612 года, Past Simple;
- №10: Since then, it has become — маркер since then → Present Perfect.
4. После enjoy — герундий: enjoy taking part (№11).
5. Местоимение и числительное:
- №3: перед существительным independence нужно притяжательное → its;
- №13: …and these continue to inspire people — глагол без -s, значит подлежащее множественное: these (события);
- №9: people first celebrated it in 2005 — «впервые»;
- №15: one of the best examples — превосходная степень.
Проверка
Подставь и прочитай — всё звучит верно: National Unity Day is celebrated in Russia on 4 November.

Главный алгоритм: определи время по контексту → проверь, актив или пассив (есть ли «by кем-то» / действие направлено на подлежащее) → реши, нужна ли личная форма глагола или причастие.
