Another common【C9】______is that it is unlucky to open an umbrella in the house—it will either bring【C10】______to the person who opened it or to the whole【C11】______. Anyone opening an umbrella in fine weather is【C12】______, as it inevitably brings rain!

选项
A、running from
B、jumping off
C、stepping off
D、keeping from
答案
C
解析
上下文理解题 文中指出“从梯子底下走过不吉利,即使这意味着你要走下人行道进入忙碌的大路中去。”没有必要使用特殊表示动作的词语,如:running,jumping都太夸张。D选项keeping from“避开”意思在此不适合。
