The new series of “Minecraft: Story Mode” will be set in the world of Minecraft, but it will feature an original story that combines new characters with familiar themes. It is driven by player choice. It will be a separate standalone product.
The decision to make the new game community-driven is potentially brilliant. It's interesting that feedback from the community is going to be brought into Minecraft: Story Mode. In a way, it echoes what Minecraft is. It is a user-generated world.
It's likely that there already have been gamers on Minecraft fan blogs. They have come up with theories as to how the universe was created. There could be lots of contradictory things there. But from a marketing standpoint, it makes all the sense in the world for the community of “you guys are going to write this.”
Minecraft first came out in 2009 and is probably due for an evolution of some sort. Story Mode seems like a natural next step. A dedicated fan base has very high expectations. It will be satisfied with the story it is developing.
There will be challenges, however. Minecraft does not follow what the game industry is used to working with. It will be a completely different development scenario. It is a world with no story and starting from the beginning. As long as the Minecraft story is popular and successful, that might be OK.
The new series of game will feature a new story with unfamiliar themes. F The new game will be combined with other products. F The new game is community-driven. T
The game fans can create the theories of the universe on the Minecraft blogs. F

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 in 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(水上住家) 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(侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn't a goody-goody like Mickey.
In the 1930s, 40s and 50s Donald and hid friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds

In 1909 an English newspaper offered £ 1,000 to the first man to fly across the English Channel in an aeroplane. Today, modern jets cross it in minutes. But at that time it still seemed a good distance. The race to win the money soon became a race between two men. Both were very colorful.
One was Louis Bleriot. He owned a factory in France that made motor car lamps. He was

already well known as a pilot because he had had accidents several times. Some people laughed at him. One man said, “He may not be the first to fly across the Channel but he will certainly be the first to die in an accident!” But Bleriot was really a good and brave pilot. He also had many good ideas about aeroplane design.
The other man was Hubert Latham. He was half French and half English. He took up flying when his doctors told him he had only a year to live. “Oh, well,” he said, “if I'm going to die soon, I think I shall have a dangerous and interesting life now.”
Latham was the first to try the flight across the Channel. Ten kilometres from the French coast, his plane had some trouble. It fell down into the water and began to sink under the water. A boat reached Latham just in time. He was sitting calmly on the wing and was coolly lighting a cigarette. Bleriot took off six days later. He flew into some very bad weather and very low cloud. He somehow got to the English side and landed in a farmer's field. When he did so, a customs (海关) officer rushed up to his plane. Planes have changed since then, but customs officers have not. “Have you anything to declare?” The officer demanded.
1. The story took place B A. in the early 20th century B. in the 19th century
C. at a time not mentioned in the passage 2. Bleriot was well known as a pilot because C A. he was unusually brave
B. he had many good ideas about aeroplane design C. he had had a few accidents
3. Why did Hubert Latham want to fly across the Channel? B A. He thought he could manage it easily. B. He knew he only had a year to live. C. He had always been interested in flying.
4. Why did the customs officer rush to the plane? A A. To ask if Beriot had anything to declare. B. To make sure that the pilot was not hurt.
C. To ask why the plane had landed in a farmer's field.
5. “Do you have anything to declare?” means C A. “Do you want any help?” B. “Is there anything wrong?”
