填空题

170.[听力原文]New York is one of the last large American cities to have some of its policemen on horseback. The New York police have 170 horses that they use in certain parts of the city.The horses are expensive to feed, but it is even more expensive to take care of them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horseshoes. In fact, they need more than 8,000 of them each year. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths. There are only about thirty-five of these blacksmiths in the whole United States.The cost of shoeing a horse is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars, and it takes a skilled blacksmith two to three horns 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 plain metal and then fit it to the horse s hoof. The blacksmith must bend over all the time he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight of the horse s 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 its leg.One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin, who came to this country from Ireland in 1948. He not only shoes horses for the police, he also works for a race track and for a group of horse owners who live near the city. Corbin became interested in blacksmithing because his father did it, and, as he puts it, It s a good way to make a living.
