Ⅰ. 2018·衡阳完形填空
Numbers in different countries may have different meanings. In China, some people think that some numbers bring them __1__. Take “8” for example, the Chinese pronunciation of the number “8” has almost the __2__ sound as that of the Chinese character “发[faː]”, which means making a fortune. So, many Chinese people spend a lot of __3__ to get their telephone numbers or car numbers to include this number “8”. They believe without __4__ doubt that the number will bring them money.
__5__, others don't believe that numbers have anything to do with good luck. They think such an idea is only an ignorant(愚昧的) and superstitious(迷信的) belief. A number is one thing, and good luck is __6__. They will ask, “__7__ can you ever have any good luck simply because of some lucky numbers, even if you don't work hard, don't have good opportunities and don't get along well with the people around you?”
As for me, I __8__ with the latter(后者). Clearly, lucky numbers are only a kind of superstition. Perhaps it holds true for some cases, but often it does not. Numbers can __9__ bring good luck to a person at all and our fortune is in our own hands. So, everyone can have a good fortune only if he tries his best. Let's always remember “Opportunities are only for the __10__ mind” and “No pains, no gains”.
