迷信 Superstition

 Though the science is highly advocated, people try to explain everything in science, there are still some people believe that something happen for some certain reasons, and the ghosts manipulate the supernature. In the older generation, they believe in ghosts so much, my grandma is one of them. She burns joss sticks day and night, she says if she keeps doing this, and the immortal¹ will see her sincere and will bless our family fast and sound. As for me, I don’t believe in superstition², a ghost exists in those people who do the guilty things’ heart. But if people believe in superstition and have faith, that will be good for them, so they won’t feel empty and do the right things.

虽然科学得到了高度的提高，人们尝试着用科学解释每一件事情，但是仍然有一些人相信事出是有因的，鬼魂在背后操纵着超自然现象。在老一辈里，他们很相信鬼怪，我的奶奶就是期中一个。她从早到晚的烧香，她说如果她坚持这样做的话，神仙就会看到她的诚意，就会保佑我们家身体健康。对于我来说，我不相信迷信，鬼魂存在于那些做了亏心事的人心中。但是如果人们迷信并且有信仰，这样对他们来说也是好的，这样他们就不会感到空虚，也会做对的事情。
