    Walt Disney began to make cartoon movies when he was a young man. But he didn't have much money then. One day a mouse ran near his desk while he was working in his small office.

    ＂Would you like to be my pet?＂ Disney decided to make a cartoon about it.

    ＂I am making a cartoon about a mouse named Mortimer,＂ he told his wife.

    ＂Mortimer Mouse? I think Mickey Mouse would be a better name,＂ she said.

    ＂You are right. It would,＂ Disney agreed and made many Mickey Mouse cartoons.

    People all over the world saw Mickey and loved it. Mickey Mouse made Disney famous. Then came Donald Duck, and Goofy Dog and others. Disney began to make long cartoons. Then he made cartoon movies for television.

    In 1955, Disney opened a wonderful land of make-believe in California. Real boats, castles, trains, mountains, rivers, all are in one beautiful park. Millions of people came to Disneyland.

    He died in 1966, but the world will not forget him. Mickey Mouse and all his cartoons will help us to remember him.

When I was young, Mother's Day was as special as Christmas. 

It was exciting being in the house at this time. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} He made sure that his kids showed much love for their mother. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} He told us to do things for our mother, even very small things like cooking breakfast. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} She could have her breakfast in bed in the morning and just relax. In the evening, we went to a restaurant for a nice Mother's Day dinner. 

From this, I learned a thing or two about how to love. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} He loved her and always told her so. 

You see, it goes both ways. The love you have for your mother comes back to you in a special way one day if you have children. Even if you are not living together, you will feel close to each other. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

David, a 15-year-old boy from England, lives in Shanghai with his parents now. He is very healthy. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, he had some bad habits in the past. He liked to stay up late and he usually played computer games on the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} at night. In the morning, he got up late and didn't eat breakfast. For lunch and dinner, he ate junk food. He liked eating candies very much and he {#blank#}3{#/blank#} ate them every day. And he hardly ever exercised. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} his parents asked him to do sports, he never listened.

Last year, David often felt tired. His parents were worried about his {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, so they took him to the hospital. The doctor told David that he was in poor health (健康欠佳). Then David decided to do something. "I'll try to spend {#blank#}6{#/blank#} time on the computer," he said. "I'll try to eat healthy food. And I'll get up early and exercise at least {#blank#}7{#/blank#} a week. Besides, I will do the housework with my parents {#blank#}8{#/blank#}."

Now he loves doing sports. After dinner, he often helps his parents with the {#blank#}9{#/blank#}. On weekends, he hardly ever plays computer games. He also loves reading some English {#blank#}10{#/blank#} such as Time in his free time. These good habits help him keep healthy.

My grandfather often said "I won't" to show his dislike of dishonesty. When he was young, he worked as a furniture maker. One day, a neighbor invited him to make some furniture. When arriving, he noticed the wood provided was a little 1 , so he said, "I won't start right away. " He chose to let the wood dry for a month. He knew working with wet wood could cause 2 later on. 

Around the same time, another furniture maker was also asked to do a 3 job by a different family. Unlike my grandfather, he 4 working right away. As a result, the neighbor started doubting my grandfather, thinking he was trying to make more money by5 the work. However, my grandfather waited 6 . He wanted the best quality for the furniture he was making. 

A month later, the other furniture maker received his money and went back home. My grandfather began to make strong and beautiful furniture when the wood was completely dry. A few months passed and the furniture made by that other maker began to break. The neighbor then regretted 7 my grandfather and said sorry to him. People came to understand his 8 and skill, spreading his fame far and wide. 

Influenced by my grandfather, my father also follows the 9 of "I won't". He always provides the freshest food, which makes his restaurant very popular in town. Once, when a trade r wanted to sell some cheap but smelly seafood to my father, he said "No!" and stopped the business. 

Now, my brother and I 10 in mind what our grandfather and father taught us. Through ups and downs in life, we've come to deeply understand our family value behind this saying—— to be truthful and honest.
