What do you think of black cats? Are they unluckier than cats of other colors? Many people in Western countries think so. Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), did a study on cat colours and people’s understandings of cat personalities.
The study found that people do judge(判断) cat personalities by color. Scientists did a survey on the Internet. There were 49 statements (描述) matching five cat colorings with 10 personalities. People think orange and bi-coloured (双色的) cats are friendly, tri-coloured (三色的) cats are not generous, and white cats are calm, lazy and shy. As for black cats, people think they don’t have special personalities.
But why do so many people dislike keeping black cats as pets? People think black cats have less special personalities, which might be because of their bad reputation (口碑). They think black cats may bring bad luck, especially at Halloween. Movies and television shows also make people believe that.
Although people have these ideas, UC Berkeley scientists give another reason: people don’t think black cats are pretty enough. After all, nothing can show black cats are unluckier than other cats. “You can’t judge a cat by its colour, because it’s the personality of the cat, not the colour, that will let you know if the cat is right for you,” Cathy Marden, a scientist said.Many people in Western countries may think black cats are .

IMAGINE a life without arms or legs! You can’t hold anyone in your arms. You can’t walk anywhere with your feet. How would you last a day like that? Would you at yourself in the mirror like Nick Vujicic, the 29-year-old Australian?
Nick was born without limbs(四肢), so life was not for him. At school many students played jokes on him he looked different from everyone else. He was refused to be their friends, so he always felt . However, he faced that bravely. He learned to type and write with two toes(脚趾)when he was six, and he could surf the Internet and play golf. In university, he achieved great success and was among the excellent students in the studies. And he decided on to do later in his life—to encourage others to work hard for their dreams.
Now Nick is one of the most popular in the world. He travels to many countries and gives speeches about his story difficulties. “Living life fully is about looking at what you have, not what you ,” he said. His story encourages millions of people.
“I tell people to keep on getting up when they and to always love themselves,” he said. “If I can encourage just one person, then my job in this life is done.”
