Question
Do you believe in superstitions? Why, or why not? Working with your partner, write down three superstitious beliefs that you are familiar with.
Answer

Truly speaking, I don’t believe in superstitions. These are blind beliefs. The ignorant and conservative people observe them. Superstitions have no scientific base or proof. The common superstitions are:
(i)
13 is an ominous number.
(ii)
Don’t start a new project on Saturday.
(iii)
Stop if a black cat crosses your path.
