Walt Disney started his animation career in Kansas City，Missouri，producing films that were a combination of cartoon and live action and starring a curious little girl named Alice. Hoping for greater success，he moved to Los Angeles in 1923，joining his brother，Roy. Once the creative possibilities with the Alice series were exhausted，Disney started producing films for a new animated character，Oswald the Lucky Rabbit，in 1927.
Mickey Mouse was conceived the next year during a cross-country train ride，according to the “official” company history, Walt Disney had just been forced to give up the Oswald rights to his cruel New York distributor，who had exercised copyright control over the character.
On the ride back home to Los Angeles，Disney made up a little mouse named Mortimer. His wife，Lillian，thought the name too pompous (华而不实的) and suggested Mickey.
Steamboat Willie，Mickey’s screen debut，was an instant hit，arriving in the same year，a time when technological advances in motion pictures，radio and the phonograph (留声机) were transforming mass culture. By the end of the 1930s，Mickey had starred in more than 100 cartoons.
Mickey gradually transformed both physically and spiritually. His face was rounded out and his eyes went from black ovals to white eyes with pupils in the late 1930s. His face became friendlier，less rat-like.
Mickey Mouse became the face that launched a thousand merchandise products. Watches. Pencils. Bed sheets. Alarm clocks. Telephones. He is one of the most merchandised faces ever—about $4. 5 billion a year in sales—even though he’s currently second to Winnie the Pooh for the Disney company
Mickey’s popularity may have declined in the 1940s，but he gained new life in the 1950s with the airing of TV’s Mickey Mouse Club and the opening of Disneyland in Anaheim，California.
In the succeeding decades，Mickey has been a regular presence on television on the Disney Channel and is photographed daily alongside thousands of tourists at theme parks in California，Florida，France and Japan.
“Mickey Mouse speaks an international language. ”Sklar said. “When I go to Tokyo and see how kids react to Mickey Mouse the same way they do in Paris. It’s reassuring that there are some things that cross international boundaries. ”
All from a simple cartoon. Said author Wasko：“Mickey represents a fascinating interweaving of culture，politics and economics. ”

〖2019年学苑教育专项练习〗【答案及解析】：
1. 参考答案D。〖2019年学苑教育专项练习〗解析：由题干中的人名Roy定位到第一段第二句话Hoping for greater success，he moved to Los Angeles in 1923，joining his brother，Roy，因此选D。A错在颠倒了创作艾丽丝这个动画形象与Walt和Roy合作的顺序；而B错在Mickey的出现并不是两个人合作的结果；gave up the rights是第：：段中出现的事情，并且与Roy无关，故排除C。
2. 参考答案A。〖2019年学苑教育专项练习〗解析：对于debut这个词的理解主要根据上下文。第三段介绍了米老鼠是怎样被迪斯尼创造出来的，而在第四段讲米老鼠登上舞台后迅速走红，并且在第一句话中还有arriving一词，可见debut的意思就是“初次登台”，因此选A。
3. 参考答案C。〖2019年学苑教育专项练习〗解析：根据原文第四段中提到的in the same year(指的是第二段中的the next year，即1927年的第二年：1928年)，可知C是正确的。A错在long—time effort上，因为米老鼠是迪斯尼在旅途中偶然构思出来的；B对米老鼠的描述是米老鼠到了20世纪30年代晚期的形象，在它出现的早期眼睛是black ovals；D中的名字只是迪斯尼最初对这只小老鼠的命名，随后他就根据妻子的建议把它改成了Mickey。
4. 参考答案D。〖2019年学苑教育专项练习〗解析：文章第六段提到He(指Mickey Mouse)is one of the most merchandised faces ever…even though he’s currently second to Winnie the Pooh for the Disney company，既然把Mickey Mouse和Winnie the Pooh给the Disney company带来的盈利作比较，可知Winnie the Pooh一定和Mickey Mouse一样是one product of the Disney company。
5. 参考答案B。〖2019年学苑教育专项练习〗解析：在文章的倒数第二段出现了international一词，但此处所说的Mickey Mouse speaks an international languages是一种形象的说法，不能取其本意，所以不能选A，而由其后的内容可知Mickey的作用是打破了国界，促进了不同文化问的交流，所以B是答案。
