I left home for New Zealand to start my new life on my 15th birthday. My father and mother took me to Hong Kong, where we had to say goodbye. This was the first time I had traveled so far by myself. I wiped(擦) away my tears and also realized I would have to do everything by myself from then on.

After I arrived there, I really found life and study were quite different. There were only 20 students in each class. Students were very active and teachers were not so serious. We could sit with anyone we like. The school had an easy manner, with few rules. In a term, only maths, science, social studies and English were the subjects we had to take. The others were free to choose. So I chose music, art and computer.

In my free time, I joined clubs to take an active part in activities. And I always went to the library after class, where I found a lot of books to help with my studies. In New Zealand, students depended on the library to get knowledge instead of waiting for what teachers asked them to do. Also, I played different kinds of sports such as soccer and tennis. Because I could swim well, I even found a part-time job as a life saver in my school swimming center. As time went by, I found life there was really busy but happy.

Two months has passed, and a week of exams are coming. Now I have to put down all those things and work hard for the exams. Hope I can get the best grades in my class and make my parents proud of me.

Have you ever heard of the proverb(格言) “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise?” It was written by Benjamin Franklin. Another famous proverb is “ A penny saved is a penny earned”, which means money should not be wasted. People like to use proverbs because they usually have deep meanings. Here is an interesting collection of proverbs about love.

Some people say “Absence makes the heart grow fonder(多情的)”. That means you love someone even more when he or she is far away.

Another proverb says “l(fā)ove is blind”. In other words, when you are in love with someone, you may refuse to see anything bad about the person.

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 man’s love if she cooks his favorite foods. Some people only want to love someone who is very good-looking. You might tell them that “Beauty is only skin deep.” What a person looks like is not really important.

All in all, those proverbs are quite interesting sometimes. If you try to memorize some of them in your English study, you may find a lot of fun when talking in English. So, please have a try. “Action speaks louder than words.”

1.“A penny saved is a penny earned” means you should ________.

A. make more money B. find a job C. save money D. work harder

2.The proverb “_________” is almost the same as the one “Never judge(判斷)a person by his look”？

A. Love is blind B. Absence makes the heart grow fonder

C. Beauty is only skin deep D. The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach

3.How many proverbs are there in this passage talking about love?

A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 6
