Not long ago I was invited out to dinner by a girl called Jane.I have met Jane only twice, and she was very beautiful.
I was very pleased.“She loves me ”I thought.“I am sorry at such short notice.”She said when I arrived,“but we suddenly knew there were going to be thirteen people at the table,so we had to find someone else.” Believing that the number 13 is unlucky is a typical of superstition. Recently I came across a little group of worried people.They gathered round a man lying on the pavement(人行道)beside a road in London. They were waiting for an ambulance, for the man had been knocked down by a passing taxi. He had stapped off the pavement and into the street in order not to walk under a ladder (梯子). To see a black cat in England is lucky. But if you see a black cat in India, it is considered very unlucky. There, if you are about to set out on a long journey, and someone sneezes, you should not go. If you break a mirror,you will have seven year's bad luck. Just superstition, of course.

Mike cried.“I know, It's my shadow on the ground.” We saw that each girl and boy had a shadow and Miss Brooks had a bigger one. I tried some funny tricks. When I moved, my shadow moved. When I ran, my shadow ran, too. But I could' t catch it at all. Then Jess found a long and thin bamboo pole and stuch it in to the ground. Even the pole had a shadow.
All this started me thinking about shadows. I did not have a shadow the day before, when I walked in the darkness. My shadow is never with me in my room at night when the light is out.

Everybody talks about the weather; it's the most common subject of conversation, for example, “Isn't it a nice day?”“Do you think it will rain?”“I think it is going to snow,”All this are the common ways of starting a conversation.

People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water,he looks for something to tell him it is going to rain; he won't believe anything else.
