Passage 4

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(动画片) 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 greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) 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, „40s and „50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were no more new cartoons.

Henry was a carpenter（木匠）of our village. Once I asked him to make a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I arrived home that evening, Henry was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for his work.。

My wife said to me，quietly，“That‟s his ninth cup of tea today. ”But she said loudly, \"It's a beautiful table，dear，isn't it?\"

\"I won't decide about that until I see that bill.” I said.

Henry laughed and gave me his bill for the work. It said： BILL One dining table June 10，1995 Cost of wood 17.00 Paint（油漆） 1.50 Work，8 hours（1 an hour） 8.00 Total（总计） 36.50

When I was looking at the bill，Henry said，\"it‟s been a fine day，hasn‟t it? Quite sunny.” \"Yes,” I said. \"I‟m glad it is only the 10th of June.”

\"Me too，” said Henry. \"You wait—it'll be a bit hotter by the end of the month.”

\"Yes. Hotter—and more expensive. Dining tables will be 20 more expensive on June 30th，won't they，Henry?”

Henry looked hard at me for half a minute. There was a little smile in his two blue eyes. I gave his bill back to him.

\"If it isn't too much trouble，Henry,” I said，\"Please add it up again. You can forget the date.”

I paid him 26. 50 and he was happy to get it.

When the police see a person trying to break into a house, they will stop and question the person. If they do not, the person may steal(偷) things from the house.
