1. What do you think of the proverb "You are what you do?" There is a popular saying, "You are what you eat". And although
there is some truth in it, the Americans prefer the other proverb, "You are what you do". To this day, family names that once reflected an occupation like Cook, Carpenter and Baker are still common. Indeed you are what you do! A large part of the American dream is the idea that success is possible if we work hard, if we do our best. We encourage those people who are successful not on the basis of their family name, but by his or her own efforts. Once we know what a person does, we decide whether or not we are interested in this person.

As for my opinion on the proverb "You are what you do", I believe that it holds true to a certain extent. Our actions and choices define who we are as individuals, and it is through our deeds that we leave a lasting impression on others. While our occupations may not entirely define us, they do play a significant role in shaping our identities and how we are perceived by society. Ultimately, it is up to us to determine what kind of person we want to be through our actions and behavior.
