Walt Disney was a successful cartoon maker. He was born in 1902， in Chicago. He was thin with a moustache. Disney had a gift for drawing that made him famous. Things weren't always easy though. He found it hard to find a job at first. Employers laughed at his drawings.
One night Disney lay on his bed feeling very sad. Suddenly， he heard the squeaking of a mouse. Even the mice were laughing at him! Disney was very angry and stood up. He wanted to punish the mouse. But surprisingly，the mouse stood proudly right in front of him. What an amazing mouse it was! Disney cheered up and happily gave the mouse some food. However，just then the family cat ran in. Disney looked at the mouse. It did not run away. Instead，it started to play with the cat!
When he looked at this confident mouse before him，Disney thought: If a mouse like that can be so brave in front of a big cat， why am I so upset about a little criticism? He picked up his pencil， smiled，and started to draw the mouse. The mouse became the most famous cartoon character in history.
C 1. He was not good at remembering things.
