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 thats 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.26 .
