Americans like to use proverbs so much 4. there are so many proverbs in history. Here is an interesting collection of proverbs that Americans use.

Some people say, “Absence makes the heart grow fonder.” This means you love someone even more when he or she is far away.

Here is another popular saying about love: “The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.” Some people believe that a woman can win a 6.(man) love if she can always cook his favorite food.

Some people only want to love someone who is very good-looking. I think it's

The children grow vegetables and take care of animals, but they are not playing “Farmville(开心农场)” online. Students at Gateway International School have started farming a small piece of land in the school. The students in the school are from different countries, such as Malaysia and the Philippines.

“To make the children selfreliant and develop friendship between children from different countries, we asked them to grow vegetables. They were excited about the idea,” said Grace Alwyn, the head teacher of the school. “They give part of the harvest to us and we cook it for them. We are planning to ask the parents to buy the vegetables planted by the children. This will also teach them the importance of money.”

A parent said happily, “Through farming, they are learning to love the environment. They will learn a lot from these activities.”
