答案

小题1:A
小题2:C
小题3:C
小题4:A
小题5:B
解析

1. A 我们定位到why下面的这句:“It’s unlucky when a black cat crosses the street in front of you,”says Ben,可知本觉得这是不吉利的,故选A。
2. C 细节题,答案来自文章中的一个例子:some people think that 13 is an unlucky number,故13是不吉利数字,选C。
3. C 根据文章最后一句“And when I find a peney on the ground,I always pick it up .That brings me good luck all day!”可知C正确。
4. A 也是细节题的考查,根据“We have a horseshoe over the front door of our house for good luck,”says Ben可知答案选A。
5. B 主旨题的考查。文章主要讲的是好运气与坏运气,故选B。A答案只是讲一只黑猫,只是文章一个方面;同样C也只是文章的一个方面,不能全面概况全文。
