Draft horses often worked in teams of two, four or six horses. What a beautiful sight a fine matched team was! The horses were all of the same size and color. Their coats were brushed and shining. The big animals moved together as though(仿佛) they were dancing.
My father drove and trained teams of draft horses. I learned from him how to handle them. He showed me that such horse is different. To work well with horses, I needed to know each one.
