“Such a bad day!”1 said angrily.
“There are no bad days,just bad attitudes”’said a young girl behind me.
I looked at her for a few minutes,and then smiled. As I was trying to change to another line,the girl knocked me on the head. I was surprised at the unusual act.

If he doesn’t see his shadow,spring is on the way,that is to say,we luck out with an early spring.
Since a groundhog hibernates for the winter,its coming out of the ground is a natural sign of spring. Centuries ago,people in Europe watched for a badger or bear as signs of winter's end,rather than a groundhog. Germans who moved to Pennsylvania in the mid-1800s began keeping an eye on the groundhog. The large population of the little animal made it easy for them to forecast the weather.
It also has religious origins,just like Candlemas,which is also on Feb. 2.Candlemas Day is a Christian holiday. Early Christians believed that if the sun came out on Candlemas Day,winter would last for six more weeks.
In the 1880s, some friends in Punxsutawney,Pennsylvania,went into the woods on Candlemas Day to look for groundhogs. This outing became a tradition,and a local newspaper editor nicknamed the seekers “the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club”. Starting in 1887 the search became an official event and centered on a groundhog called “Punxsutawney Phil”. A ceremony still takes place every year. Groundhog Day is not a legal holiday;nobody gets off work. Many American cities have their own special groundhogs;New York City's official groundhog is called “Pothole Pete”，but “Punxsutawney Phil” gets the most attention. So far,Phil has seen his shadow about 85 % of the time.
