4.A文章讲述了在英国众所周知的几个迷信事件。1.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Youaresaidtobeluckyifablackcatcrossesyourpath.”可知，据说，如果一只黑猫穿过你前面的路，就会给你带来好运。而其他选项内容会让人倒霉。故选D。2.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Anyoneopeninganumbrellaindoorsinfineweatherisunpopular,asitinevitablybringsrain!”可知，在房子里打伞会认为不正常，在雨中打伞是正常的。故排除A。根据最后一段中“IntheUK,BlackcatsaregenerallyconsideredluckyintheUK,eventhoughtheyareconnectedwithwitchcraft(巫术).”可知，黑猫在英国被认为是幸运物，故排除B。根据第二段前两句可知，在梯子下走过去而带来的霉运是可以避免的，故排除C。根据第四段中“Thenumber13issaidtobeunluckyforsome”可知，数字“13”在英国被认为不幸运，故选D。3.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Thesuperstitioncoulddatefromtheoldtimewhenitspurposewastoactasasunshade.”迷信可以追溯到旧时代，它的目的是作为一个遮阳伞。和第五段中“Thesuperstitionissupposedtohaveoriginatedinancienttimes,whenmirrorswereconsideredtobetoolsofthegods.”迷信应该起源于古代，那时镜子被认为是神的工具。可知，关于雨伞与镜子的这两种迷信说法都有历史渊源。故选B。4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Thesuperstitionissupposedtohaveoriginatedinancienttimes,whenmirrorswereconsideredtobetoolsofthegods.”可知，在古代镜子代表着神仙，所以打碎镜子被认为是不尊重神仙。故
