Whats the best title of the passage?AHow to Make Your Trip More InterestingBThe Most Popular Way to TravelCHow to Make a Travel PlanDThe Best Place to TravelNew 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 on certain parts of the city. The horses are expensive to feed(喂养), but it is even more expensive to look after them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horse shoes. In fact, they need more than 8,000 of them each day. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths(铁匠).There are only about thirty-five blacksmiths in the whole United States.The cost of shoeing 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 blacksmiths job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of metal and then fit(安装) it to the horse foot. The blacksmith must bend over(弯腰) all the time when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight(重量) of the horses leg while he works. Clearly, a blacksmith must be very strong. 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 his 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 the job of blacksmiths because his father did it, and, as he puts it, “Its a good way to make a living.”49 .

The best title for the passage is “”.APolicemen on HorsebackBBlacksmiths and HorseshoeingCJames Corbin, a BlacksmithDHorseshoeing Is a Good Way to Make a LivingEating habits are different in different countries. The Chinese have a saying Eat good things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner. Americans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.Most Americans only give themselves a short time for lunch. So they usually eat a small lunch. After work, they will have more time to eat a big dinner. Also a quiet dinner at home with all the family talking about their day is a way to have a good rest after a long, hard day of work.Eating at restaurants is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. Very often youcan hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they are just having a good time. In America it is not like this. They want a quiet place where they can eat a good meal far away from the noises of the outside world. If someone is talking too loudly, the manager(经理) of the restaurant will look at him or her angrily. If some peopleare talking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant may come out and ask them to be quiet.54 .
