Our questions were about exercise, use of the Internet and watching TV. Here are the results. We found that only fifteen percent of our students exercise every day. Forty-five percent exercise four to six times a week. Twenty percent exercise only one to three times a week. And twenty percent do not exercise at all! We all know that many students often go online, but we were surprised that ninety percent of them use the Internet every day. The other ten percent use it at least three or four times a week. Most students use it for fun and not for homework. The answers to our questions about watching television were also interesting. Only two percent of the students watch TV one to three times a week. Thirteen percent watch TV four to six times a week. And eighty-five percent watch TV every day! Although many students like to watch sports, game shows are the most popular.

But one very famous symbolin American culture is a cartoon. We all know and love the black mouse with two large round ears—Mickey Mouse. Over 90 years ago, he first appeared in the cartoon Steamboat Willie. When this cartoon came out in New York on November 18, it was the first cartoon with sound and music. The man behind Mickey was Walt Disney. He became very rich and successful. In the 1930s, he made 87 cartoons with Mickey. Some people might ask how this cartoon animal became so popular. One of the main reasons is that Mickey was like a common man, but he always tried to face any danger. In his early films, Mickey was unlucky and had many problems such as losing his house or girlfriend, Minnie. However, 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 the first cartoon character to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Today’s cartoons are usually not so simple as little Mickey Mouse, but everyone still knows and loves him. Who has a pair of ears more famous than Mickey’s? 31. What’s Mickey Mouse a symbol of? A. Chinese culture. B. American culture. C. Japanese culture. 32. Why is the cartoon Steamboat Willie special? A. Because it was the first cartoon movie. B.

And it’s the best time for you to show it at the school talent show! Middle school talent shows in the US happen every year.

Everyone has a chance to shine. Almost anyone can do almost anything in a talent show. As long as your act isn’t rude or illegal (不合法), you can show yourself freely. On the day of the show, all the students sit in the school gym and ready to cheer for their classmates. Many of today’s stars started their careers (职业) in school talent shows—Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift and Kate Perry all showed their skills early in life.

Our questions were about exercise, use of the Internet and watching TV. Here are the results. We found that only fifteen percent of our students exercise every day. Forty-five percent exercise four to six times a week. Twenty percent exercise only one to three times a week. And twenty percent do not exercise at all! We all know that many students often go online, but we were surprised that ninety percent of them use the Internet every day. The other ten percent use it at least three or four times a week. Most students use it for fun and not for homework. The answers to our questions about watching television were also interesting. Only two percent of the students watch TV one to three times a week. Thirteen percent watch TV four to six times a week. And eighty-five percent watch TV every day! Although many students like to watch sports, game shows are the most popular. It is good to relax by using the Internet or watching game shows, but we think the best way to relax is through exercise. It is healthy for the mind and the body. Exercise such as playing sports is fun, and you can spend time with your friends and family as you play together. And remember, “Old habits die hard.” So start exercising before it’s too late! 26.

When people say “culture”, we think of art and history. But one very famous symbolin American culture is a cartoon. We all know and love the black mouse with two large round ears—Mickey Mouse. Over 90 years ago, he first appeared in the cartoon Steamboat Willie. When this cartoon came out in New York on November 18, it was the first cartoon with sound and music. The man behind Mickey was Walt Disney. He became very rich and successful. In the 1930s, he made 87 cartoons with Mickey. Some people might ask how this cartoon animal became so popular. One of the main reasons is that Mickey was like a common man, but he always tried to face any danger. In his early films, Mickey was unlucky and had many problems such as losing his house or girlfriend, Minnie. However, 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 the first cartoon character to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Today’s cartoons are usually not so simple as little Mickey Mouse, but everyone still knows and loves him. Who has a pair of ears more famous than Mickey’s? 31. What’s Mickey Mouse a symbol of? A.
