Mariea Sabaté always wanted to work with horses.
“I grew up right here, and when I was a little kid visiting the parks ... all I cared about was ‘Where are the Park Police horses?'” said Sabaté, a mounted officer (骑警).
Sabaté trains Park Police applicants ( 申请人), putting them through a 10-week course. “The training covers everything from ‘this is the front and back of the horse' to getting them to control the animal,” said Gratton, who had a similar course.
Horses can help control crowds because they let officers see farther than they could on the ground.“One horse can do the work of 15 to 20 officers,” said Chairs,
another mounted officer.
Horses also make chases ( 追捕) an easy thing. Gratton said she has had a few examples when someone tried to run from her. “I usually catch up with them pretty quick,” she said, “and tell them to let me know when they're tired.”
Chairs recalled one time when a man tried to run up a set of steps (台阶) to get away. Once the man saw Chairs' horse, which weighed about 1,800 pounds, running toward him, he shouted “I give up” right away.
Running through the steps is just one task the horses are trained to do. The horses must get used to the noises, sights and activities of the city before they are allowed to work.
“The first time I took my horse down the street, he thought he was going to die — I thought I was going to die!” Sabaté said with a laugh.
Being able to give horses a new purpose in life is part of what makes Sabaté love the job. “If you really love horses like I do ... this is the best job ever,” she said.
1.When Sabaté was a little kid, she became interested in _______.
A. horses B. parks
C. being a policewoman D. being a zoo keeper
2.Which of the following is TRUE about Gratton?
A. She trains Park Police horses every day.
B. She got much help from horses in the work.
C. She thought the training course was difficult.
D. She thought one horse could do thirty officers' work.
3.From the passage, we know horses can help the police _______.
①control crowds ② guard the leaders
③ chase bad guys ④ search for lost children
A. ①② B. ③④
C. ①③ D. ②④
4.How many things must horses get used to before they work?
A. One. B. Two.
C. Three. D. Four.
5.What does Sabaté think of her job?
A. It's the most dangerous. B. It's the best.
C. It's hard. D. It's funny.

Alice was not hurt, so she jumped to her feet in a moment. She looked up, and found the White Rabbit was still in sight. She was close behind it when she turned the comer, but the Rabbit was no longer to be seen. She found herself in a long, low hall.
There were doors all around the hall, but they were all locked.
Alice walked sadly down the middle, wondering how she was ever to get out again.
Suddenly, she came upon a little three-legged table. There was nothing on it but a tiny golden key, and Alice's first idea was that this might belong to one of the doors of the hall.
But, alas! Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before and behind it was a little door. She tried the little golden key in the lock, and she was pleased to find it fitted!
