Are you afraid of black cats? How do you feel about the number thirteen? Superstition – a belief in things or events that bring good or bad luck that is not logical or has no scientific explanation.

Слайд 3

Whether or not you believe in them, you're probably familiar with a few of these superstitions . Seeing a shooting star Killing a spider A ladybird lands on your hand Seeing a rainbow Braking a mirror Walking under ladders Finding a four - leaf clover Full moon Good luck Bad luck Good luck Very good luck Very bad luck Bad luck Good luck Bad luck / trouble

Which statements do you agree with the most? Why? It’s better to be safe than sorry Superstitions are an important part of my life You make your own luck Superstitions have no place in the modern world Superstitions are just a bit of fun

Слайд 6

Speaker 1 I’m not superstitious at all. I mean, most people say touch wood for good luck, but I don’t even do that. To tell you the truth, I don’t think that being successful in life is about being lucky or unlucky. I think you need to know what you want and then work hard to get it. That’s what makes a lucky person, in my opinion.

Слайд 7

Speaker 2 Is there any reason to believe in superstitions? Probably not. But nobody really knows. If I see a ladder across my path, for example, I always walk around it – you know, just in case. I just don’t want to take the risk, that’s all.

Слайд 8

Speaker 3 I never touch wood, throw salt over my shoulder, carry a lucky charm, that kind of thing. I can’t believe people still believe in these silly superstitions today. I think we should forget them and leave them in the past, where they belong. I’m certainly not going to teach my children to believe in any of that rubbish.

Слайд 9

Speaker 4 I don’t take superstitions very seriously, but they are a kind of hobby. I love to sit down with friends and chat about something strange that has happened. We all laugh and tell each other that it is a sign of good or bad luck! Sometimes we try to guess what might happen next. Of course, we never guess correctly, but we always enjoy ourselves trying!

Слайд 10

Speaker 5 I find them all so interesting! You know, every superstition has its own history. I love to learn where each one has come from and how it has changed. Our superstitions have even become a part of the way we think and speak. Every country in the world has its different superstitions, and I think they’re absolutely fascinating!
