Do you know about Walt Disney? He came from the USA. When he was very young, his family1 from the city to a farm.
2 Disney was busy most of the time, he could still find3 to do interesting things. He spent much of his free time4 pictures of the animals on the farm. He then began5 stories about them. Later he even began taking6 classes on Saturdays.
As he grew older, Disney's art7 also grew. He began using a new way to tell his stories. To do this, he drew the8 picture many times, changing (改动) each one a little. Using his camera (相机), he9 a photo of each drawing. Next, he put the film (胶卷) through a movie projector (放映机). As the pictures ran10 through the projector, the characters looked11 and moving. Disney soon began to use this way. He made his drawings into12 . And the cartoons were just like13 .
Walt Disney was14 after many years of hard work. He15 one of the world's greatest entertainers (演艺人士). His cartoons still make lots of people happy every day.
August Wilson was a famous American writer. He left school in the ninth grade. In the late 1960s, Wilson built a theater and began to think of ways to make people know more about African-American life. He had the idea of a series of (系列) plays. Each of the plays showed how African-Americans lived.
The first play of this series is Ma Rainey's Black Bottom about black musicians in Chicago in the 1920s. Other plays in the series like Joe Turner's Come and Gone, are about the black in the 1910s; Fences is about a father and his son in the 1950s and The Piano Lesson is about how a family sold their treasure (珠宝) in the 1930s. For the last two plays mentioned above Wilson got Pulitzer Prizes.
King Hedley the Second, the eighth and the last play of the series, is set in the 1980s.
Both the black and the white like his plays now and his plays attract anyone who is interested in African-American life.
