How's this. I'll give you some fruits, and then you think of the proverb that goes along with it?
Apple
Lemon
Grapes
Bananna
Grapefruit
Remember, all proverb means in this case is a short phrase that is common in the language. For example, a proverb using an animal would be "Holy Cow!" That does not make sense in any other language but English.
Good luck!

forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest
the oldest tree bears the sweetest fruit
an apple a day keeps the doctor away
one bad apple spoils the barrel
One who doesn't appreciate the apple, won't appreciate the orchard.

off the top of my head, an apple a day keeps the doctor away; when life gives you lemons, make lemonade; rotten apple in the barrel...

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree (s/he's like his/her mother/father).
All politicians are like a bunch of bananas (they're all yellow, they hang together and they're generally not straight (honest)).
