IV Read the following passage, then answer questions 41-45

Mickey Mouse was not Walt Disney’s first successful cartoon creation, but he is certainly his mostfamous one It was on a cross-country train trip from New York to California in 1927 that Disney first drew themouse with the big ears Supposedly, he took his inspiration from the tame field mice that used to scamper intohis studio in Dansas City No-one is quite sure why he dressed the mouse in the now-familiar shorts with twobuttons and gave him the yellow shoes But we do know that Disney had intended to call him Mortimer until hiswife 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 Hewas a superstar at the height of his career

Although he has received a few minor changes throughout his life time, most notably the addition ofwhite gloves and rounder forms of a more childish body, he had remained true to his nature since those firstcartoons Mickey is appealing because he is nice He may get into trouble, but he takes it on the chin with agrin He is both good-natured and resourceful Perhaps that was Disney’s own image of himself Why elsewould 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.

35 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

36 What distinguished Steamboat Willie from earlier cartoons?

A Better color B A sound track

C Minnie Mouse as co-star D The longer format 37 The first image of Mickey Mouse is described as all of the following EXCEPT A He was dressed in shorts B He had big ears C He wore yellow shoes D He was using white gloves. 38 The word “pervasive” could be better replaced by A well-loved B widespread

C often copied D expensive to buy 39 The paragraph following this paragraph most probably discusses A the history of cartoons B other images of popular cartoons C Walt Disney’s childhood D The voices of cartoon characters. V 40 Please don’t go there now  I’d rather ……

Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day- once afterbreakfast and once before we go to bed We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal

Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread, potatoes,red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit Chocolate, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay
