期中复习之完形填空15篇 (上海期中真题) （23-24八年级上·上海宝山·期中）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 1 ? 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 “ 2 .” And because of this, “4” has been considered bad luck in China. ►666 “666” is a/an 3 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 4 “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 5 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 6 . 1．A．when B．how C．why D．where 2．A．happiness B．death C．luck D．sadness 3．A．different B．boring C．difficult D．interesting 4．A．sounds like B．looks like C．feels like D．seems like 5．A．never B．still C．even D．only 6．A．America B．China C．Japan D．Africa （23-24八年级上·上海徐汇·期中）What would you do if your home computer broke down?

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 1 ? 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 “ 2 .” And because of this, “4” has been considered bad luck in China. ►666 “666” is a/an 3 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 4 “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 5 appears in Western culture. ►8 Maybe no people in the world likes the number “8” better than the Chinese.
