D Correct answer
Explanation

In Italy, the number 13 is considered lucky, not unlucky as in many other cultures. This is because 13 is associated with the Virgin Mary in Catholic tradition - there were 13 people at the Last Supper (Jesus + 12 apostles), and in Italy, 13 symbolizes life rather than death. In contrast, many other cultures consider 13 unlucky (triskaidekaphobia).
