【分析】
本题为词汇运用题，需根据句意及语法规则用括号内单词的适当形式填空。解题思路：1. 定冠词the后接名词，需将形容词long转换为名词；2. 数词70后接可数名词复数；3. 主语为单数第三人称时，一般现在时谓语动词用第三人称单数形式；4. 专有名词需用特定形容词形式；5. 结合固定句型确定词形。
【解析】
1. 定冠词后需接名词，long的名词形式为length，故填length；
2. 数词70修饰可数名词，需用复数形式，palace的复数是palaces，故填palaces；
3. 主语The Palace Museum是单数第三人称，一般现在时中谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，cover的第三人称单数为covers，故填covers；
4. 专有名词“国庆节”的固定表达是National Day，需用形容词形式National，故填National；
5. 固定句型It's said that...表示“据说”，此处用say的过去分词said，故填said。
