In 1937, Disney's cartoon, Snow White and Seven Dwarfs, was produced. It was the first full-length
movie cartoon ever made. The film remains popular today. Snow White was followed by a number of other
cartoon films, including Pinocchio, Fantasia and Bambi.
In 1950, Disney's company began to make non-cartoon films of the best novels in the world for young
people. The company became not only one of the main producers of films but also a publisher (出版商) of
books for children.
In 1955, Disney opened a large amusement park called Disneyland in Los Angeles. Very quickly the park
became an attractive place for both men and women, young and old.
Disney died in 1966. He didn't live to see the opening of another Disney amusement park. The new park,
opened in Florida in 1971, is called Walt Disney World. It is even larger than Disneyland and has become one
of the world's most popular holiday places.
In both of the parks, visitors can ride, walk, or boat as they like. There is fairyland (仙境), where you can
meet the characters from fairy tales and Disney's cartoons and films. If you want something more exciting,
you may experience your own adventures (冒险).
Since its opening, Disney World has been made larger and larger. It is made up of several wonderful and
magic parts. Besides, Disney amusement parks have been built in other parts of the world. Tokyo Disneyland,
for example, was opened to public in 1983.
