LESSON 1 Proverbs Around the World
Section 2 本文
Section 2
 Proverbs often include animals.// Let’s look at some examples/from two countries.//
 The first one is from Thailand.// “Don’t ride an elephant/to catch a grasshopper.”// When you are doing a small job,/a big tool is not useful.// The second one is from Brazil.// “In a piranha-filled river,/an alligator swims backstroke.”// Before you get in trouble,/prepare for danger/and protect yourself.//
 Proverbs from different countries/often include familiar local animals.// Because of their images,/people easily understand the messages.//
