One person in four in Britain is, apparently, superstitious, and they’ll do everything from hanging horseshoes over their fireplace to crossing their fingers, touching wood and 【S2】______ never walking under a ladder. And they’re careful about cats. Black cats are 【S3】______ to be the familiars of witches or warlocks, so if one is following you it’s definitely bad luck--a witch is after you! On the other hand, if one crosses your path and continues then it’s good luck because it hasn’t noticed you. However, in some places the 【S4】______ are different--so it pays to know where your black cat comes from!

They are also the 【S8】______ for research by Dr Richard Wiseman at the University of Hertfordshire. He believes that some people actually want to be unlucky because it helps them to avoid taking 【S9】______ for their own failings, it’s easier to say ’I failed the exam because I’m just an unlucky person’ than to 【S10】______ that you didn’t work hard enough. ’It’s a way of copping out,’ he said.
