Her works of art sell like hotcakes (非常搶手)at the gift store. Her name is Mechi. Some people are even f comparing her to Picasso,a famous artist. But there is   one big difference between the famous Spanish artist  Picasso and Mechi : Mechi is a 3500 pound rhinoceros  (犀牛). She lives at the Mesker Park Zoo in Indiana.

  Three  years  ago,Mechi  came to the  zoo.  She  was   found in the wilds after her mother was killed by t hunters. The zoo keepers found Mechi shows great interest in painting,just like a monkey loves bananas,  So they encouraged her to paint.

  Mechi  paints with her lips rather than her feet or f hom(角). But she can create colorful works. Do you  know how zoo keepers train her? At first,zoo keepers I placed several pieces of banana,carrot and sweet potato I on the paper for Mechi to move around. Once she got  used to moving things with her lips,the keepers replaced I those things with paint.

  Now  the art is sold at  the zoo gift  shop  to  raise money for the zoo and other rhinoceros-related work.

科目:初中英語 來源: 題型:

  In 1993 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash’s voice,he said “Stop!That’s our duck!”

The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck,who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat (水上住家)and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight-minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and t greedy (貪婆的),and because he lost his temper (發(fā)脾氣)very quickly. And they loved his voice when he  became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews (侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse   himself,probably because he wasn’t a goody-goody like  Mickey.  

In the 1930s,1940s and 1950s Donald and his ' friends Mickey,Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of i Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about  the place of the USA in the world,and safety in the f home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice  disappeared-there were no more new cartoons. 

Clarence Nash died in February,1985. But today’s  children can still see the old cartoons on television and t hear that famous voice.
