【分析】
这是一篇语篇限词填空题，解题时首先通读全文，把握短文介绍中国剪纸文化的核心主题，再逐空结合三个维度推导答案：第一先观察空格前后的结构，判断是否对应固定搭配；第二涉及时态的空，要从上下文找到时态线索确定正确形式；第三涉及介词、冠词的空，要结合名词属性、基础搭配规则确认，保证填入后语义通顺、符合语法要求，且每空仅填一词。
【解析】
26. 此处对应固定结构a way to do sth，意为“做某事的方式”，空格后是动词原形express，需要填入不定式符号to，整体语义为“红色剪纸已经成为一种表达愉悦情绪和美好祝愿的方式”。
27. 此处考查时间介词用法，表达“在特殊的日子”，具体的特定日期前要搭配介词on，on special days符合语境逻辑。
28. 此处考查一般过去时的be动词，语境描述“李云霞小时候”的状态，主语是第三人称单数，后文的动词learned提示句子为一般过去时，因此填入was。
29. 此处对应固定短语fall in love with，意为“爱上……”，是英语常用固定搭配，因此填入介词in。
30. 此处考查不定冠词，hobby是可数名词单数，此处泛指“一项爱好”，且hobby以辅音音素开头，因此填入不定冠词a。
