Exercise 1

Read the text and develop the exercises.

Hello Kitty is Japan’s most famous cartoon cat. Sanrio Company made her popular
everywhere. She is really cute, has a little nose and usually wears a bow or a flower on her fur.
There are over 15,000 kinds of products that have pictures of Kitty on them, such as bags,
clothes, and rulers.
In the past, only children liked her. Now lots of young women are buying Hello Kitty
products again because they like to remember when they were children themselves.
Why do people like this cartoon cat? Perhaps it is because she has no mouth, so she does not
look happy or sad.
When people feel happy, they can look at her and think she is happy too. When they are sad, they
think she is sad too. People feel she is a friend who feels the same as they do.
