Why are the Palestinians often referred as refufees?
At various times the Palestinian people are referred to as refugees. In some cases it's a clear and correct choice. Many Palestinians live as refugees in Jordan or in Gaza. Also, the Palestinians are living in land they claim as their own, that would be Israel. Although they live in a territory they believe is their homeland, the area is now technically speaking, and that's also a reality, living in a nation that is controlled by the Israeli government. In that sense, they could be called refugees. With all that said, the Palestinians living outside of Israel are refugees. As an aside, the term Palestine, is a name given to that territory by the Romans, when they controlled the eastern Mediterranean Sea. They had dispersed the Jews living there as a punishment for the "problems" they caused to the Roman empire under Hadrian.
Why do Palestinians agree to the expanding of territory of Israel?
This question is based on mistaken supposition, namely that Palestinians approve of Israel expanding its territory. They do not. The lead negotiators for Fatah are willing to allow the Jewish State of Israel to occupy the 78% of the Mandate that they controlled after the armistice in 1949, but no additional lands, save for landswaps. Hamas refuses to accept anything less than 100% of the Mandate and the end of the State of Israel.
