　　A doctor had a son, who, too, became a doctor after graduation (授学位，毕业，刻度), and joined his father in his clinic. Before long his father decided to have a holiday, and he left his son to look after all his patients. When he returned from holidays, he asked his son if anything had happened. "Well, yes dad," the son said, feeling very proud of himself. "You remember Mrs. Jones, the lady whose back pains you have been treating for twenty years. Well, they are gone now. And it is I who did it." "I see," replied his father, not very pleased. "Mrs. Jones' back paid for your university fees. I was hoping they would pay for your new car as well."

　　Another popular belief (相信，信仰) of ancient (古代的) people that is still with us is about cats. In ancient Egypt, people worshipped cats. The Egyptians thought they were intelligent (聪明的) and had special powers. Today some people think cats are evil (祸害，坏的) or untrustworthy. They believe that the cats can think like humans and they don't like it. As we know, cats are often independent (独立的) and this makes people dislike them even more. Some of our fear of cats even result in certain superstitution in practice. Many people believe that if a black cat crosses in front of them, it wards a person, it will mean bad luck for the day. In England, many people believe that if black cats walk towards a person, it means good luck for the day. The English often keep black cats in order to bring them good luck. Rural people in some parts of the United States believe that cats must be kept from babies, or they'll steal the babies' breath. Still, some believe cats are lucky (幸运的，侥幸的) and have long lives. In fact, there is a saying that cats have nine lives.
