You can learn a lot from a horse by paying attention to his body language.Horses,like many other animals,communicate through their movements,eyes and sounds. Since they are strong and dangerous animals,it is important to learn how to read their body language.

Watch a horse's body. If his body is relaxed and quiet,he is happy. Go forward (向前) slowly and watch for changes in his action.

Watch the horse's ears. When his ears are up and forward,it shows he is feeling happy. However,when his ears are down and backwards,against his neck,the horse is sad. When the horse relaxes his ears out to the side,he may be bored. If he moves them when you speak to him,he's interested.

Care about the horse's eyes. When he shows the whites (眼白) of his eyes with his ears back and flat (扁平的) ，he is very worried. A horse that does this may be going to kick. It is a frightening expression and you should stay away.

Notice the expressions on the horse's face. Some of these will change a little with different horses,and if you have a horse,you will soon learn to read his expressions. Usually,if he narrows (使......变窄) his eyes and tightens (绷紧) his mouth,he is angry.

A It was a bright Saturday morning. I stopped at a cafe to enjoy a cup of coffee and read the morning newspaper. Suddenly,I felt a hand on the back of my jacket and heard someone say, “Hey Steve!How are you doing?”

Looking back,I saw a young man. He looked familiar,but I couldn’t remember where we had met.

The young man also had a cup of coffee,so I asked him to join me. Very soon,his story began to thaw out my memory.

Five years earlier,Johnson was traveling home late on a February night. A heavy snow had arrived that afternoon,and by midnight,the snowdrifts (雪堆) were getting deep. His car was stuck (陷人) in a snowdrift just down the road from my house.

He walked to my house for help. I helped him pull his car out of the snowdrift and up to the street where the snow had been cleaned away.

This was a normal happening here during the winter. I couldn’t count the times someone has helped me to pull my car from a snowdrift. However,it was an unforgettable experience for him. He was only eighteen at that time,and he said he was very afraid. No one wants to be stuck in a snowdrift all night.

Sometimes,one simple kindness at the right moment can change the direction of a life. So,be kind and helpful.
