In the USA and the UK, some people don’t like the number 13. They don’t think 13 is a good number. For example, they don’t like to live on the thirteenth floor.
It was May 4th, Jack’s birthday. He asked some of his friends to dinner. When everyone sat around the table, Jack began to count the people. Suddenly, he cried, “Oh, there are 13 people here!”Everyone was worried but Mrs Brown, Jack’s mother. She said slowly with a smile, “Don’t worry, children! We have fourteen people here. I am going to have a baby in three months.”
They all became happy again. They enjoyed the nice food and had a good time that night.

"Don't be so sure!" says Mr. Frog with some fur (毛) in his mouth.
"What's in your mouth, Mr. Frog?"
"Well, yesterday I ate a tiger, only left some fur."
