The horses are expensive to feed, but it is even more expensive to look after them. This is because the horses need special horseshoes to walk on the streets. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Six Blacksmiths(马蹄铁匠) are responsible for keeping these shoes in good repair.There are only about thirty-five of these blacksmiths in the whole United States.①The cost of shaping a horseshoe is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars, and it takes a good blacksmith two or three hours to do the job.A blacksmith's job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of metal and then fit it to the horse's foot. The blacksmith must bend over all the time when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight of the horse's leg while is working. But even more importantly, he must be able to deal with horses— for before the blacksmith can begin his work, he has to get the horse to lift its leg.One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin. He came to the US from Ireland in 1948. ②He not only makes horseshoes for the police but also works for a group of horse owners near the city.Answer the following questions according to the passage1.

Unit3 traditional skills1.description n.说明，形容Listen to a description of a picture.同根词：describe v.=say what sth. Is like; give a picture of in words描述The police asked me to describe exactly how it happened.2.fisherman n.= a person who catches fish as a job 渔夫，The fisherman gets money by catching fish.同根词：Fish v.捕鱼，钓鱼; n. 鱼（可数名词，但单复数同形，当指鱼的种类时，复数形式是fishes）They are good at catching fish.搭配：Fishing rod钓鱼竿3.although conj. = though 虽然，尽管[Although he is over 65, he is very fit and still enjoys working.注意：although和though不能和but连用4.ready adj.= fully prepared or completed 准备好的= happy to do sth.乐意的，情愿的比较级：readier 最高级：readiest搭配：Ready for准备好做某事We are ready for the journey.！辨析：be ready和get ready这两个短语的共同意思是“准备”。

其区别是：前者着重表示“准备好了”这一状态；后者着重表示“做准备”这一动作。

从下面两个句子体会：They are ready for the competition.We must get ready for it.Be ready和be prepared的区别：这两个短语都可以表示已经完成采取某种行动之前所必要的准备或具备进行某项活动的条件。
