In foreign (外国的) countries, some people do not like the number 13. They don't think 13 is a lucky
number. For example, they don't like to live on the thirtieth floor.
My friend Jack has got the same idea. He doesn't like the number 13, either.
One day he asked some friends to dinner. When all of his friends arrived, he asked them to sit around
the table. He began to count (数) the people in his mind when they were having the delicious food.
Suddenly (突然) he cried out. "Oh, there are thirteen people here!" Everybody's face turned white except
(除……以外) Mr. Brown. He said slowly with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, my dear friends! We
have fourteen people here. My wife Mrs. Brown will have a baby in a few weeks. She is in the family way
(怀孕) now."
All of them became happy again.
