In the 1930s, he 6 87 cartoons with Mickey.Some people might ask how this cartoon animal became so popular. One of the main reasons is that Mickey was like a common man, but he always tried to 7 any danger. In his early films, Mickey was 8 and had many problems such as losing his house or girlfriend, Minnie. However, he was always ready to try his best. People went to the cinema to see the "little man” 9 .

It's a kind of promise. Most of the time, we make promises 2 other people. ("Mom, I promise Im going to tidy my room when I get back from school.”) However, promises you make to yourself are resolutions, and the most common kind is New Years resolutions. The start of the year is often a time for 3 resolutions. When we make resolutions at the beginning of the year, we hope that we are going to 4 our lives. Some people write down their resolutions and 5 for the coming year. This helps them to remember their resolutions. Others tell their family and friends about their wishes and plans.2.

Many resolutions have to do with self-improvement. These are about making 8 a better person.
