One day, Walt caught a mouse and kept it as a pet. A few years later, Walt decided 6 a cartoon about his pet. Walt Disney named the mouse Mickey Mouse. It was not completely like a real mouse. That was because it stood on two legs like a human. The cartoon has won the hearts of people since it came out. Then Walt made Donald Duck and 7 cartoon characters for television.
In 1956, Walt 8 a wonderful park in California. He called it "Disneyland", There were real boats, castles(城堡), trains, rivers and all kinds of 9 in the park. It has 10 become a popular place in the world. Many people went there to spend a good time with their families.
I was the smallest and thinnest player in my ice hockey(冰球)team, so everyone calls me another "name". The first time I heard the name, I didn't 1 it at all. I knew they wanted to make friends with me, but I was2 .
One player who didn't 3 me by "the name" was Eric. He always tried his best to make me feel at home. And he was always ready to 4 the best in me.

In the middle of the game, Eric fell down when he 7 to get the ball. The player next to him didn't help him but made jokes about him. I ran to him quickly and called at him 8 ,"You must say sorry!"

Recently, a video game named Black Myth: Wukong has been a great hit all over the world. Black Myth is China's first AAA video game. Why is it so popular? It is because of the Chinese culture inside it.
Wukong is a main character from Journey to the West, a Chinese classic god-evil novel written 500 years ago. "Chinese god-evil stories are fantastic themselves. No one would dislike them once they start to learn about them. And my game just opens a window." Said Feng Ji, the game's producer. For this reason, although players from other countries were not fans of Chinese culture, they are now "hard-working" on every detail(细节)of the novel. For almost the first time, the world tries actively to understand Chinese culture.
The beautiful scenes(风景)in the game are also attractive. Among the 36 places that appear in the game, 27 are real in Shanxi Province. Take the Hanging Temple for example. It was built nearly 1,600 years ago and truly hangs on a steep cliff(峭壁). Players are amazed when they realize it is a true attraction.
An American player said, "China is rich in culture and stories. I hope we can get more like this. I would love to go to China some day."
