21、One day, a farmer was walking along a road with his son Thomas. The father said, “Look！There's a horseshoe. Pick it up and put it in your bag.” Thomas said, “It isn't worth the trouble.” His father said nothing but he picked it up himself. When they got to a nearby town, they had a rest. There the farmer sold the horseshoe and with the few pennies he bought some cherries(樱桃)．

The father and the son went on. The sun was well up in the sky, and there wasn't a house or even a tree where they could have a rest. Thomas felt too thirsty to walk on.

23、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.

In the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, 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.
