(3)     Chinese people often keep fish at their stores or homes because the word “fish” in Chinese sounds like more money. So many people think it is a lucky symbol. Besides, Chinese don’t like the number “four” just because it sounds like death in Chinese. But if you think only Chinese people have superstitions, you are wrong. Western people also have their own superstitions. For example, a lot of buildings don’t have the 13th floor and people don’t want the number “13” for their home. What makes them feel worst is Friday the “13.” They don’t want to go out that day. If they have to, they will be very careful. They will keep their fingers crossed to stop the bad things from happening on that day.
