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.

【C17】
选项
A、concerned
B、related
C、associated
D、connected
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。由空后的介词with以及宾语witchcraft“魔法,巫术”可知,这里应该是说“黑猫与巫术有关联”,四个选项中只有[C]associated符合语义,故为答案。[A]concerned常用于concern oneself with/about sth.的形式,表示“忙于/关心(某事)”;[B]related一般和to搭配;[D]connected一般用于connect sb./sth.with sth,表示“将某人/某物与某物相连”,主语常为人。
