VII. Read the following passage, then answer questions 1-5. After each question there are four options marked A,B,C or D. Chose the correct
answer by writing its corresponding letter A,B,C or D on your answer paper (5 pts): Mickey Mouse was not Walt Disney’s first successful cartoon creation, but he is certainly his most famous one. It was on a cross-country train trip from New York to California in 1927 that Disney first drew the mouse with the big ears. Supposedly, he took his inspiration from the tame field mice that used to scamper into his studio in Dansas City. No-one is quite sure why he dressed the mouse in the now-familiar shorts with two buttons and gave him the yellow shoes. But we do know that Disney had intended to call him Mortimer until his wife Lillian intervened and christened him Mickey Mouse. Capitalizing on the interest in Charles Lindsborg, Disney planned Mickey’s debut in the short cartoon Plane Crazy with Minnie as a co-star. In the third short cartoon, Steamboat Willie, Mickey was whistling and singing through the miracle of the modern soundtrack. By the 1930s, Mickey’s image had circled the globe. He was a superstar at the height of his career. Although he has received a few minor changes throughout his life time, most notably the addition of white gloves and rounder forms of a more childish body, he had remained true to his nature since those first cartoons. Mickey is appealing because he is nice. He may get into trouble, but he takes it on the chin with a grin. He is both good-natured and resourceful. Perhaps that was Disney’s own image of himself. Why else would he have insisted on doing Mickey’s voice in all the cartoons for twenty years? When interviewed, he would say, “there is a lot of the mouse in me.” And that mouse has remained one of the most pervasive images in American popular culture. 1 With what topic is the passage primarily concerned? A. The image of Mickey Mouse B. The life of Walt Disney C. The history of cartoons D. The definition of American culture 2 What distinguished Steamboat Willie from earlier cartoons? A. Better color B. A sound track C. Minnie Mouse as co-star D. The longer format 3 The first image of Mickey Mouse is described as all of the following EXCEPT He was dressed in shorts with two buttons. He had big ears. He wore yellow shoes. D. He was using white gloves. 4 The word “pervasive” could be better replaced by A. well-loved B. widespread C. often copied D. expensive to buy 5 The paragraph following this paragraph most probably discusses the history of cartoons. other images of popular cartoons. Walt Disney’s childhood. D. The voices of cartoon characters.
