Answers
Answer:
Friend A is Brianne
And
Friend B is Briana
Explanation:
Brianne: Hi, why did you get late? We were about to start the project without you!
Briana: Hi, you see my parents’ superstitious nature annoys me at times. As I was about to join, they were not letting me come as a mirror broke just then. They think it is inauspicious. How unscientific!
Friend A: We cannot do anything about it. My parents also believe in superstitions.
Friend B: We must do something. See despite the mirror breaking, nothing has happened. On earlier occasions also I had to face inconvenience on account of their superstitious nature.
Friend A: What can we do?
Friend B: I think we can request our teacher to hold a webinar on ‘Superstitions’ in which she can give them an enlightening lecture on the origin of superstitions and their irrelevance in modern times.
Friend A: It is a good idea. Most of these superstitions were made quite long ago when man was quite backward in thinking, reasoning, and science. Superstitions are like ghosts whom no one has seen but still compulsively believe in.
Friend B: I think we also need to do some experiments! Are you a game?
Friend A: Wow! I am in. but what experiment?
Friend B: We will make a catwalk in front of our mothers in the morning, and in the evening we will tell them our result in the seminar. Both of us have scored full marks in our final exams. Then we will tell them, look if the crossing of the cat in front of you would have been inauspicious, we would not have scored full marks in our final exams, as you only taught us everything we know. They will understand that superstitions do not influence what happens to us.
Friend A: Great idea. If we give them a detailed explanation about irrelevance and prove our arguments with proofs, they will stop believing in superstitions.
Friend B: I agree with you. We will try to convince them.
