Number of words: 617 - Number of pages: 3.... trouble, and others don’t like them. Whereas, people who listen more than they talk rarely have others who don’t like them and they don’t get into much trouble.

Even when it is an accident, it is still better to not borrow or lend anything from anyone just in ca .....

Family came first in the Steinbeck household. While not everyone saw
eye-to-eye all the time, parents and children got along well. His
father saw that John had talent and encouraged him to become a writer.

Gilgamesh makes a name for himself a .....
