Disneyland Park is a theme park（主题公园）. The first Disneyland Park, which opened in California, USA on July 17, 1955, is owned and operated by the Walt Disney Company.
In addition to the first Disneyland Park in California, USA and some other four Disneyland parks in the world, Mickey Mouse and his friends could be possibly welcoming visitors to Shanghai’s own Disneyland Park in 2016. A Hong Kong newspaper reported this news over the weekend.
Shanghai Disneyland Park will be on the east bank of Shanghai’s Huangpu River, near Chuansha town, which is only 20 minutes’ drive from Pudong International Airport. It will be eight times larger than the one in Hong Kong, the first in China. It’s said that the park is about 10 square kilometers.
The Shanghai government once wanted Shanghai Disneyland Park to be built on Chongming Island. But many people and experts think this area hasn’t developed as fast as the city of Shanghai. Moreover, it’s too far away from Pudong International Airport.
Shanghai Disneyland Park will not follow Hong Kong’s operation model（运作模式）, that is to say, the government rents the land to the Walt Disney Company. The Shanghai government will provide the land, pay for using the brand（商标）, but it will have the power to control the park.

Popcorn Park is a very special place. Workers at the zoo care for hurt or sick（生病的）animals. At first this unusual place was not a zoo. It was called the Forked River Animal Care Center. The workers there took care of lost or unwanted cats and dogs.
The change began in 1977 when a raccoon (浣熊) needed help. The workers cared for the animal. Finally it was better, but it could not care for itself. So people had to allow the raccoon to live at the center. After that, people began taking all kinds of hurt or homeless animals there. So many animals were living at the center that it became more like a zoo. It was time for a new name.
Popcorn Park Zoo got its funny name because many of the animals there like to eat popcorn. Also workers at the zoo sell the popcorn to care for the animals.
