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!
The number 13 is said to be unlucky for some, and when the 13th day of the month【C13】______on a Friday, anyone wishing to avoid a bad event had better stay【C14】______. The worst misfortune that can happen to a person is caused by breaking a mirror, 【C15】______it brings seven years of bad luck! The superstition is supposed to have【C16】______in ancient times, when mirrors were considered to be tools of the gods.
Black cats are generally considered lucky in Britain, even though they are【C17】______with witchcraft. It is【C18】______lucky if a black cat crosses your path — although in America the exact opposite belief prevails.

选项
A、label
B、symbol
C、mark
D、cut
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。由定冠词the可知,所填名词应是前面提到过的。由空后提到的dried(变干) 和前面提到的“舔一下手指,画a cross”可知,这里指的应是用唾沫在鞋尖上画的十字架,[C]mark“记号, 标记”与a cross对应,故答案为[C]。[A]label“标签”;[B]symbol“符号”,常用来指通过联系、类似或传 统来代表其它事物的某件东西,尤指代表抽象东西的实体;[D]cut“伤口”。
