Some people believe that Friday the 13th is an unlucky (倒霉的) day. On this day, they don’t move, travel, start a new job, have a wedding or even cut their nails (指甲)! You might think it’s silly. However, do you know that the number of the people going to hospital because of traffic accidents went up 52% on one Friday the 13th? There are many stories about why Friday the 13th is unlucky. According to one story, about a hundred years ago, the British government wanted people to be more comfortable about traveling on Fridays. It named a ship H. M. S Friday. It chose the sailors on a Friday and a man called Jim Friday was made captain. After that, the ship set off on a Friday. Guess what happened? The ship had never been seen or heard since then. In the old days, people thought that 13 was the first step toward evil (災(zāi) 禍) because it was right after 12, which was a “perfect” number. Even today, many buildings don’t have the 13th floor. Unluckily Friday and unlucky 13- no wonder (難怪)some people think Friday the 13th is the unluckiest. Hollywood movies and TV programs also make people more scared on Friday the 13th.
    I think maybe sometimes there are more accidents on Friday the 13th because people are too worried and 3 nervous that day.
