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!

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、originated
B、initiated
C、generated
D、commenced
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。由空后的时间状语in ancient times和when引导的时间状语从句可知,此处应该是说“这个迷信应该是产生于古代”,故答案为[A]originated“出现,产生”。[B]initiated“开始;发动”;[C]generated“产生(热、电、光等)”;[D]commenced“开始,着手”,均与上下文语义不符。
