举一反三
The horse has played an important role throughout human history all over the world. Horses were used for thousands of years as a means of transportation, a weapon of war and a plougher of fields(犁地农具), but "the horse was more than just a vehicle - it had more character than a car, a tank or a tractor," Clare Balding wrote for The Telegraph.
In the Middle Ages in Western societies, the horse was a symbol of chivalry(骑士神)and nobility(贵族). In fact, the word "chivalry" comes from "cheval" in Old French, which meant horse. The idea of chivalry helped to fashion the 19th-century "gentleman", which was about good manners, courage and honesty to friends.
Nowadays, because of economic(经济) development, people in Western societies are less likely to see or ride horses. People living in cities, in particular, hardly ever experience horses except through movies, paintings or books. But horse racing, and betting .money on horse races, is still popular. The Kentucky Derby is one of the most popular sporting events every year in the US.
In the UK, the royal police still go around the city on horseback and the Queen rides in a traditional horse-drawn carriage on "ceremonial occasions (正式场合)”.
Some sayings about horses are still used in English today. For example, people still say "hold your horses" to mean “slow down". If someone seems too proud, people might tell him or her to "get off his or her high horse". And since horses are strong and energetic, there are expressions such as "as strong as a horse", "workhorse" and "horsing around". .
Interestingly, the horse also appears in many Chinese sayings, such as Qianlima, which means a talented person. Other Chinese horse sayings include Madaochenggong (instant success) and Baimawangzi (prince charming).
Besides their physical strengths, horses are smart and have "excellent memories", according to Discovery News. Maybe that"s why Chinese people say, "An old horse never gets lost".
Since the horse is honored as a symbol of many great qualities, people born in the Year of the Horse are said to share them.
小题1:According to Chinese tradition, which year is welcomed best officially?
A.the Year of the Snake | B.the Year of the Tiger |
C.the Year of the Mouse | D.the Year of the Horse |
A.A weapon of war. |
B.The royal police"s transportation to go around in the UK. |
C.Race horses. |
D.Animal actors in movies. |
A.Hold your horses. | B.Get off your high horse. |
C.Be as strong as a horse | D.An old horse never gets lost |
A.The horse has played an important role throughout human history all over the world |
B.The horse was a symbol of chivalry and nobility in the Middle Ages in Western societies. |
C.Besides their physical strengths, horses are smart and have “excellent memories". |
D.Horses are only used as a means of transportation like a car, a tank or a tractor. |
A.Economy develops a lot, so people in Western societies hardly see or ride horses nowadays. |
B.The Kentucky Derby is one of the most popular betting events every year in the US. |
C.Qianlima in Chinese means a person who can run one thousand kilometers a day. |
D.Since the horse is honored as a symbol of many great qualities, people born in the Year of the Horse are said to be as strong as a horse. |
Here are a few easy things you could do to get started.
Meeting the neighbors Everybody needs good neighbors. Knock onpeople"s door and find out what they would like improving in your area. Set a date for a meeting and then make some plans together. If you don"t want to go round to their houses, then you could always put a note through their doors.
Neighborhood watch Neighborhood watch schemes are very popular in the UK. If you go away on holiday and leave your house, it"s very nice to know that a neighbor is keeping an eye on it. It"s a good way to make the area you live in safer. You could set one up easily and quickly.
Lending a hand There are often elderly people living in the neighborhood who may not be able to do the things that you can. Offer to do iheir shopping once a week, look after their garden for them or maybe walk their dog.
No littering Nobody likes picking up other people"s rubbish, but a clean street can make all the difference. Take it in turns to go out once or twice a week and see what you can find. You never know, one day you might find something valuable.
Recycling Nearly two-thirds of your rubbish can be recycled. Some areas already provide places to people to recycle bottles, tins, plastic and paper. Find out if this is done in your neighborhood. Ifit"s not, do something about it.

When people travel abroad(国外), they sometimes stay in the homes of the local people. This is a homestay.
I am living with an old English couple, in the west of London. They have a clean four-bedroom house. This is a new house. It has two bathrooms and a garden with many beautiful flowers. I have a bedroom of my own.
There are some shopping centres and a restaurant next to the house, and the house is close to an underground station. It takes about 30 minutes to take an underground to the centre of London.
I think a homestay may be a good choice for you if it is your first time to visit abroad. The local people are friendly and ready to help. If you want to celebrate the holidays with them, you will get to know more about their culture and customs.
