Most Western people believe 12 star signs and they think that one's date of birth decides his star sign. They also think that people born under different star signs have different characteristics. In their opinion，if you were born on 16th May，you should be stubborn（固执的），hard-working and patient. You do not like change，and never give up easily.
ls it completely right？I don't think so. A person's birthday can't be decided by himself. But his characteristics can be changed by the environment around him. I have a friend. He was born on 15th April and belongs to Aries（白羊座）. According to the information about Aries，we know that people of Aries are sometimes too impatient and a little selfish. But my friend always does things patiently and he often thinks of others more than himself and isn't selfish at all. He isn't interested in becoming a leader and just does what he should do. So I think not all the people born under the same star sign share similar characteristics. That may just be a coincidence.
