I have always heard that walking under a ladder brings bad luck, but I’ve never thought so. I have walked under ladders many times, but I have never met anything bad before. It’s the dame with black cats. People say if a black cat crosses before you, it means bad luck. I have never thought that until this afternoon. But ever since I heard my student Sam’s story, I’ve begun thinking about whether it was true.

This afternoon, Sam was walking down the street thinking about something, so he wasn’t paying attention to where he was going. He walked right under a ladder standing against a building. A black cat ran out of a door just at that moment, and Sam fell over it, his head hit the ladder. A man washing the window was at the top of that ladder and the dirty water went down through the air. Poor Sam! He got wet all over.

　　One day, a lawyer's wife fell ill and he went to get a doctor. The doctor was glad to come to see the woman and to do what he could for her. But before he went into the house he stopped. He knew it was known to all that the lawyer would not pay others when he should. So he said to the man, “But if I do cure your wife, I'm afraid you won't pay me.”

　　“Sir”, said the lawyer, “here I have five hundred dollars, whether you cure my wife or whether you kill her I will give you all this.”

　　Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us like eating sweets and ice cream better than meat and rice. Sweets and ice cream are not bad for us if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite (食欲). It's important for us to eat our meal at regular (規律的) time each day. When we feel worried or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago in England, some judges (法官) often decided whether (是否) a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man couldn't swallow (吞咽) the bread, it meant that he wasn't telling the truth. Though this seems strange and foolish, they thought it was an excellent way of finding out the truth. A man who is worrying something has difficulty in swallowing dry bread because he loses his appetite.

(1) Good eating habits make us ________.

[　　]

(2) It's good to eat sweets and ice cream ________.

[　　]

(3) It's good for us to eat our meal ________ every day.

[　　]

(4) A person may not want to eat if he feels ________.

[　　]

(5) The judges in old England thought if a man didn't tell the truth, he could ________.

[　　]

A．swallow dry bread happily

C．hardly eat a piece of dry bread
