Questions are based on the following passage．
Predicting the future is always risky. But it's probably safe to say that at least a fewhistorians will one day speak of the 20th century as America's "Disney era". Today, it'scertainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents modem America aspowerfully as the company that created Mickey Mouse.
The reasons for Disney's success are varied and numerous, but ultimately the creditbelongs to one person, Walt Disney. Ironically, he could not draw particularly well. Buthe was a genius in plenty of other respects. In business, his greatest skills were his insightand his management ability.
But what really distinguished Disney was his ability to identify with his audiences.Disney always made sure his films championed the "little guy", and made him feel proudto be American. This he achieved by creating characters that reflected the hopes and fearsof ordinary people.
Disney's other great virtue was the fact that his company had a human face. HisHollywood studio operated just like a democracy, where everyone was on firstname termsand had a say in how things should be run. He was also regarded as a great patriot becausenot only did his cartoons celebrate America, but, during World War II, studios madetraining films for American soldiers.
The reality, of course, was less ideal. As the public would later learn, Disney'spatriotism had an unpleasant side. After a strike by cartoonists in 1941, he agreed to workfor the FBI as a mole ( 间谍 ) , identifying and spying on colleagues whom he suspectedwere subversives ( 巅峰分子) .
But, apart from his affliations with the FBI, Disney was more or less the genuinearticle. The Magic Kingdom: Walt Disney and the American Way of Life, by Steven Watts,confirms that he was very definitely on the side of ordinary Americans--in the 1930s and1940s he voted for Franklin Roosevelt, believing he was a champion of the workers. Also,Disney was not an apologist (辩护者) for the FBI, as some have suggested. In fact, hewas always suspicious of large, bureaucratic organizations, as is evidenced in films likeThat Darn Cat, in which he portrayed FBI agents as incompetents.
By the time he died in 1966, Walt Disney was an icon like Thomas Edison and theWright Brothers. To business people and filmmakers, he was a role model; to the publicat large, he was "Uncle Waif'--the man who had entertained them all their lives, the manwho represented them all their lives, the man who represented all that was good about America.
What actually made Walt Disney distinguished? A．He drew quite well himself.
B．He had a very good reputation.
C．He identified with his audiences.
D．He had great management skills.
