They wear blue jeans and sport shirts. Some have long hair and some have short hair. Sometimes a boy has longer hair than a girl. Even the language is different.

Being an expert outdoorsman, he liked to hunt large animals. However, his hunt was going poorly that days, and he couldnt seem to find anything worthy of firing his gun. His followers, trying to help him, caught a Louisiana black baby bear for the President to shoot, but he refused. The thought of shooting a bear that was tied to a tree did not seem sporting, so he spared the life of the baby bear and set it free. A famous political cartoonist for the Washington Star, Mr. Clifford Berryman, drew a cartoon( 卡通) titled, Drawing the Line in Mississippi, which used the story of the President refusing to shoot the bear. The cartoon in the Washington Star showed Teddy Roosevelt, gun in hand, with his back turned on a pretty baby bear. Morris Michtom, owner of a Brooklyn toy store, got the idea from the cartoon and make a toy bear. Planning to use it only as a display, he placed the bear in his toy store window, and next to it placed a copy of the cartoon from the newspaper. To Michtoms surprise, he was surrounded by customers eager to buy. He asked for and received President Roosevelts permission to use his name for the bears that he and his wife made, and the Teddy Bear was born! Michtom soon made Teddy bears by the thousands. The money from selling Teddy bears made him, in 1903, form the Ideal Toy Company. 18. Why did Theodore Roosevelt come to Mississippi? A. To go on a hunting trip. B. To look for large animals. C.
