In t 2 opinion,if you were born on 16th May,you should be stubborn,hard-working and patient. You do not like change,and never give up e 3 .

     Is it completely right? I don't think so. A person's birthday can't be decided by h 4 . But his characteristics can be c 5 by the environment around him. I have a friend. He was born on 15th April and b 6 to Aries. According to the information about Aries,we know that people of Aries are sometimes too impatient and a little selfish. But my friend always d 7 things patiently,and he often thinks of others m 8 than himself and isn’t selfish at all. He isn’t interested in b 9 a leader but just does what he should do.

So I think not all the people born under the same star sign s 10   similar characteristics. That may just be a coincidence.
