When people say"culture", we think of art and history. But one very famous symbol in American culture is a cartoon. We all know and love the black mouse {#blank#}1{#/blank#} two large round ears—Mickey Mouse. Over 80 years ago, he first appeared in the cartoon Steamboat Willie. When this cartoon came out in New York on November 18, 1928, it was the first cartoon with sound and music. The man behind Mickey was Walt Disney. He became very {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (success). In the 1930s, he made 87 cartoons with Mickey. 

Some people might ask how this cartoon animal became so popular. One of the main {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (reason) is that Mickey was like a common man, but he always tried to face any danger. In his early films, Mickey was {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(lucky) and had many problems, such as {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (lose) his house or girlfriend, Minnie. {#blank#}6{#/blank#}, he was always ready to try his best. People went to the cinema to see the "little man" win. Most of them wanted to be like Mickey.

On November 18,1978, Mickey became {#blank#}7{#/blank#}（one）cartoon character to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Today's cartoons are usually not so {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(simple) as little Mickey Mouse, but everyone still {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (know) and loves him. Who has a pair of ears {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(famous) than Mickey's?

Birthdays are strange things. The more you have, the more you try and pretend they don't matter, and the more {#blank#}1{#/blank#} . I'm not really sure why they think so. It's true that you are getting older, but as {#blank#}2{#/blank#} , “Who isn't getting older every day?” The problem may be that a birthday reminds people of all the things {#blank#}3{#/blank#} , but have not. I certainly understand that feeling, though I think {#blank#}4{#/blank#} that I most want to do — a kind of personal re-ordering (重新排序) of the to-do list. What makes you depressed(郁闷) on your birthday is that you realize your re-ordered to-do list is exactly the same as it was last year. That makes you feel{#blank#}5{#/blank#} , and not been anywhere. I have not had that experience this year. I look back at where I was last year and find things have changed since then.

    WeChat, known as Weixin in China, is a mobile phone communication service which was developed after QQ by Tencent on January 21, 2011 in China. It is free to use and has been the most popular in China.

    ①{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    You can register(注册) WeChat with your phone number, and add your friends' numbers in your contact list. It works just like talking on QQ. You can send your pictures and share your feelings. And your friends are able to find them as soon as they get online. What's more, they can also give you their comments such as "   ".

    ②{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    It can send voice messages, text messages, pictures and videos. Different information could be sent to your friends. WeChat provides(提供) us with shopping, games, news, e-banks and so on. If you want to order a dinner in a restaurant, you can even pay for it by WeChat. In this way, it will help you save time and money.

    ③{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    WeChat is supported on Wifi, 2G, 3G and 4G, so you can chat with your family or friends in a new way but using your phone at a low price anytime and anywhere. Even though your friends stay abroad, they are still able to use WeChat to communicate with you and share their interesting experiences with you.

    ④ {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    However, there are some dangers of WeChat. It is often reported that many traffic accidents are caused by careless drivers who can't help playing on WeChat while driving. And some bad guys even use WeChat to gamble(赌博), which breaks the law. Luckily, WeChat is improved now and then.

    ⑤ {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    So it seems impossible that WeChat will be replaced in the near future. It is going to solve these difficulties and develop better and better.
