A
According to the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, we'll officially welcome the Year of the Horse following the arrival of Spring Festival on Jan. 31. The horse has played an important role throughout human history all over the world. Horses were used for thousands of years as a means of transport, a weapon of war and a plougher of fields, 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(骑士精神)and nobility(高贵). In fact, the word “Chivalry” comes from “cheval” in Old French, which meant horse. The idea of chivalry helped to fashion the 19th century concept of the “gentleman”, which was related to courtesy(礼貌), courage and loyalty to friends.
