Today we talk about proverbs.A proverb is a short，well－known saying that expresses a common truth or belief.Proverbs are found in most cultures and are often very old.

In American history，Benjamin Franklin was famous for his proverbs.He lived in the 1700s and was a leader of the American Revolution against English rule.He was also a scientist，inventor and writer.

Franklin published a book called “Poor Richard's Almanac.” He included many proverbs he had heard or created.Some of them are still used today，like：“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy，wealthy and wise.”

Here are other examples of proverbs that Americans use.The first ones are about love.Some people say，“All is fair in love and war.” They mean that anything you do in a relationship or in battle is acceptable.

Another proverb about love is，“Absence makes the heart grow fonder.” This means you love someone even more when he or she is far away.But other people say，“Out of sight，out of mind.” You may not even think about that person when he or she is not with you.Which of these proverbs do you think is most true?

Another proverb says “Love is blind.” In other words，when you are in love with someone，you may refuse to see anything bad about that person.

Some people are only interested in having a relationship with someone who is very good－looking.You might tell them that “Beauty is only skin deep”. Your girlfriend may be lovely to look at，but she may also have some bad qualities.Or your boyfriend is a wonderful person，but not good－looking.So what a person looks like is not really important.

Sadly，we have no more time for this program.So we must say，“All good things must come to an end.”

Khachamgyal's hometown in China's Qinghai Province is famous for producing learned scholars and literary legends，and the college student is determined to follow in their footsteps.

The 26－year－old，who is only the second blind person to ever be enrolled at Tibet University，has already won many awards for his poems and articles in Tibetan.“I want to achieve my dream，which is to live without needing to admire other people and without other people needing to discriminate against(歧视) me，” said the college student，who lost his sight because of illness at age 16.

Khachamgyal's native Regong County is the birthplace of famous Tibetan writer Gendun Chopel and other artists，and is known for its thangka painting，a traditional Tibetan Buddhist art.Yet，his true inspiration was a French woman known in Tibetan as Konchok Pemo.In 2005，she helped him enroll at Braille Without Borders in Lhasa.“Konchok Pemo is my benefactor(恩人)，she showed me a path of brightness in my life，” he said.

At the specialist school，he studied Chinese，Tibetan and English.He said he picked up the Lhasa dialect in weeks，and was speaking good English within six months.He went on to complete junior and senior middle school in Lhasa，and in 2013 was accepted by Tibet University，where he majors in translation.

Khachamgyal said he studies with the help from his classmates.“They take turns to read the books to me，and some books have audio versions so I can listen again and again，” he said.“As well as my classmates helping out with many things in daily life，the university gives me a sponsorship of 3，000 yuan a year，” he said.

In the past two years，he has read more than 20 books and written 16 essays，including five that have been published in magazines and newspapers. 5．What does Khachamgyal dream to be in the future?
