Passage 1
For many people in the West, March 13 will be scary. Millions of people will refuse 61 (get) out of bed all day! What makes this day so 62 (terrify)?
Being nervous 63 Friday the 13th is a superstition(迷信) . The number 13 is considered unlucky in many Western countries. Many buildings don’ t have a 13th floor. This is because Judas, the man who 64 (betray) Jesus, was the 13th guest at Jesus’last meal. Jesus was crucified(钉死在十字架上)on a Friday, 65 (make) the combination of“Friday”and“13” 66 (particular) unlucky.
In addition to the number 13, there are other superstitions in Western culture. For example, people think 67 is unlucky to walk under ladders. 68 a black cat passes in front of you, it is also thought to mean that bad luck is coming.
So 69 there anything you can do to bring good luck in the West? Well, four-leaf clovers, horseshoes facing up and even rabbit 70 (foot) are said to bring good luck.
