【分析】

本文是一篇記敘文。在美國人們覺得星期五和數字13是不好的運氣，在住酒店結婚等場合都避免使用它們。但是賓夕法尼亞大學教授Simon Bronner認為只是人們把壞運氣歸因於星期五和數字13。

102．考查副詞。根據句子結構可知，空格處的單詞是作狀語的，應該用副詞。故填Fortunately。

103．考查固定搭配。try to do sth.表示“盡力做某事”，try not to do sth.盡力不做某事。故填to break。

104．考查it作形式主語。分析句子結構可知，say後面是賓語從句，缺主語，分析句意可知，搞清楚這個傳統是怎樣產生的很難。不定式短語 to find out how the tradition came into being是真正的主語。為了保持句子平衡，應該用it作形式主語，而把不定式短語放到後面。故填it。

105．考查形容詞。名詞origins應該用形容詞來修飾。故填religious。

106．考查定語從句引導詞。the Friday為定語從句的先行詞，在後面從句中作時間狀語，星期前面用on，所以定語從句的引導詞是when或on which。故填when。

107．考查介詞+doing用法。include是動詞，分析句子結構可知，整個句子是單句，include在這裡不作謂語，需要用它的介詞形式，後面跟介詞賓語。故填including。

108．考查名詞。由前面的are和many可知，此處應用可數名詞的複數形式。故填explanations。

109．考查時態。分析上下文可知，此篇文章主要時態是一般現在時，本句主語是單數，所以要用believe的單三形式。故填believes。

110．考查表語從句引導詞。本句中should be後面是表語從句，從句內容完整。故填that。

111．考查一般現在時被動語態。根據句意和句子結構可知，the number 13和consider是被動關係，又分析上文知道，這裡應該用一般現在時，the number 13是單數主語，所以要用一般現在時的被動語態，be動詞用is。故填is considered。
