Walden is a quiet small town in England. Cars aren't allowed ( 允许 ) into the centre of the town so it's very pleasant to walk around.

Allow at least half a day to visit the museum. It's on a hill just outside the town in a very old building. One room there tells people the history of the building itself.

The museum brings history to life. You can even ride on a horse and cart ( 马车 ) in the street. I was really interested in a 1950s living room in the museum. It was just like my grandmother's house when I was a child.

If you can wait, there's a new exhibition (展览) opening soon. Walden is famous for one thing -- candy! If you like candy, this exhibition is the place for you -- you can learn about its history. I never see so many different kinds of candy. But don't go now because it doesn't start until the 26th of May.

Have a look round the town of Walden too while you are there. If you start in the main square and follow the green signs, they'll take you to the museum, and you'll see lots of other interesting things on the way, too.

New York is one of the last large American cities to have some of its policemen on horseback. The New York police have 170 horses working in certain parts of the city. The horses are expensive to feed, but it is even more expensive to look after them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horseshoes. In fact , they need more than 8,000 of them each year. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths. There are only about thirty-five of these blacksmiths in the whole United States.

The cost of shoing a horse is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars, and it takes a good blacksmith two or three hours to do the job.

A blacksmith’s job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of metal and then fit it to the horse’s foot. The blacksmith must bend over all the time when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight of the horse’s leg while he works. Clearly, a blacksmith must be very storng. But even more important, he must be able to deal with horses---for before the blacksmith can begin his work, he has to get the horse to lift its leg.

One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin. He came to the country from Ireland in 1948. He not only makes horseshoes for the police but also works for a group of horse owners near the city. Corbin became interested in blacksmithing because his father did it, and,as the puts it, “It’s a good way to make a living.”

4.The best title for the passage is “__________”.
