13．Having a year-round comfortable climate and being close to several European countries，many thought that Paris was the perfect location for Europe's first Disneyland．But culturally speaking，Paris was probably the least logical choice．This is because France is known for its reputation of smirking（自鸣得意地笑） at anything American-an attitude called"anti-Americanism"．
However，Disney opened a park in Paris I 992anyway．How has it managed to survive for so long in a country that some thought may not welcome it？
According to National Public Radio，"America creates a danger to everything the French value highly．"For example，France is famous for its fancy cuisine（菜肴） and people there usually spend a long time over meals．Ut American fast food-hotdogs and hamburgers，to name two-introduced a completely different dining style．And in the film industry，while French culture values low-plot and high-art films，Hollywood's fast-food-style film productions may seem of low taste in the eyes of the French．
"In the land of Louis XIV's real Castle of Versailles…why do we need the fake one of Sleeping Beauty？"is the reaction of many French people toward the US theme park，according to The Baltimore Sun Newspaper．
There used to be doubt over whether the Disney magic would work in France．But this doubt has been proved unnecessary now that the park has been standing for 25 years．And according to The Telegraph，Disneyland Pais was isited by nearly 15 million people last year，half of whom were French．
France is changing．Slowly，its way of life is beginning to resemble （与…相似）that of the country it loves to hate，"commented The Economist．
Today，even though French people are still seen as"cold"and proud of their own culture more than anything，they are already part of the trend of globalization and there is no getting out of it．
"At the core（核心），America gives us the same effect as ice cream．"French journalist Jacqueline Remy once wrote in L'Express magazine．"It makes us sick，but we keep asking for it．"
