24、In 1933, an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work on 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 film The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat 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. Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a goody—goody（善于讨好卖乖的人）like Mickey.
