Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage. (选择最佳答案): 6% From the first day that men began to study numbers in daily life, some numbers have been thought to be lucky, while others are considered unlucky. And it’s not just Western culture that has done this. Cultures in Japan, China, India, and Africa have done the same thing, but for different reasons. Let’s take a look at some commonly known lucky and unlucky numbers to see why they are loved or hated. ►7 Everyone knows that “7” is lucky. But ___57___? The root of most lucky numbers can be found in religion. God, for example, is said to have created the world in 7 days. Until the 1800s, there were seven known planets in the solar system (太阳系). Seven is even the usual number of spots on a ladybug (瓢虫) and ladybugs are considered good luck themselves. ►4 This number means bad luck in Asia. For example, the pronunciation of “4” in Chinese is very similar to the word “___58___.” And because of this, “4” has been considered bad luck in China. ►666 “666” is a/an ___59___ number. It is extremely bad luck in Western culture but very good luck in many Asian countries. According to the Christian Bible (圣经), the number 666 means Satan (撒旦，魔鬼). It might be the most avoided number in Western culture. But in Asia people love “666” because it ___60___ “things going smoothly,” and is considered to be very lucky. ►2 Not like western countries, in many Asian countries, “2” is good luck. It is thought that good things come in pairs, which is a phrase that ___61___ appears in Western culture. ►8 Maybe no people in the world likes the number “8” better than the Chinese. A recent report said that the phone number 8888-8888 was sold for over $200,000 in ____62____. 57. A. when B. how C. why D. where 58. A. happiness B. death C. luck D. sadness 59. A. different B. boring C. difficult D. interesting 60. A. sounds like B. looks like C. feels like D. seems like 61. A. never B. still C. even D. only 62. A. America B. China C. Japan D. Africa 【答案】57. C 58. B 59. D 60. A 61. A 62. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了在不同文化中一些常见的吉利数字和不吉利数字，以及它们被人们喜欢或讨厌的原因。 【57题详解】 句意：但为什么呢？ when何时；how如何；why为什么；where哪里。根据“The root of most lucky numbers can be found in religion.”可知，是解释原因，上文应该是问为什么。故选C。 【58题详解】 句意：例如，“4”在汉语中的发音与“死”非常相似，因此，“4”在中国被认为是不吉利的。 happiness幸福；death死亡；luck运气；sadness悲伤。根据“And because of this, ‘4’ has been considered bad luck in China.”以及常识可知，“4”在汉语中的发音与“死”非常相似。故选B。 【59题详解】 句意：“666”是一个有趣的数字。 different不同；boring无聊的；difficult困难的；interesting有趣的。根据“It is extremely bad luck in Western culture but very good luck in many Asian countries.”可知，这个数字有趣，因为有不同的意思。故选D。 【60题详解】 句意：但在亚洲，人们喜欢“666”，因为它听起来像“一切顺利”，被认为是非常幸运的。 sounds like听起来像；looks like看起来像；feel slike感觉像；seems like似乎像。根据“things going smoothly”可知，是听起来像是很顺利。故选A。 【61题详解】 句意：人们认为好事成双，这是西方文化中从未出现过的一句话。 never从不；still仍然；even甚至；only仅仅。根据“Not like western countries, in many Asian countries, ‘2’ is good luck.”可知，西方国家不存在这种成双的概念，用否定词never。故选A。 【62题详解】 句意：最近的一份报告称，电话号码8888-8888在中国以超过20万美元的价格售出。 America美国；China中国；Japan日本；Africa非洲。根据“Maybe no people in the world likes the number ‘8’ better than the Chinese.”可知，应该是在中国卖出的。故选B。 6、2024·闵行区六校联考·期中卷 B.
