My favourite cartoon character is Micky Mouse. Micky Mouse is a country mouse. He has a lovely face and a small black nose. He always wears white gloves and red clothes. He doesn’t have any brothers or sisters, but he has a lot of friends. He is very different from other mice. For example, he doesn’t like eating cheese. He just likes eating vegetables and chicken wings. I like him because Micky Mouse is a bit like me in character! He is kind and friendly, and so am I.（供参考）
