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 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、falls
B、arrives
C、drops
D、happens
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。空后的a Friday为泛指,这里应表示的是13号碰巧是某个周五,[A]falls与 on构成固定搭配,表示“突然来临,降临”,符合此处语境,故为答案。[B]arrives是强干扰项,该词一般 表示“(有时间性的事件)到来”,且不与on搭配使用。
