　　Thousands of years ago, the ancient people of Babylon and Egypt studied the stars in the sky and created the zodiac(黄道十二宫图). It was first used to count time. Later, many people used the stars to describe a person’s character (性格)and to foretell(预言)what would happen in the future.

People with the blood B are independent(独立的)but may be lazy. People with the blood type AB are honest, and people with the blood type O are talkative.(健谈的)
