About the year 1900,a poor boy named Charlie Chaplin was often seen waiting outside the back entrances of London theatres.He looked thin and hungry.He was hoping to get work in show business.He could sing and dance,and above all,he knew how to make people laugh.But he couldn't get work and therefore wandered about the city streets.Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had no parents. But twenty years later,this same Chaplin became the greatest,best-known,and best-loved comedian (喜剧 演员) in the world.Any regular visitor to the cinema,must have seen some of Chaplin's films.People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until the tears ran down their faces.Even people who don't understand English can enjoy his films,because they are mostly silent.It isn't what he says that makes us laugh.His comedy doesn't depend upon (依靠) words or language.It depends upon funny actions which mean the thing to people all over the world.Acting out without words,of common human situations plays an important part in the dances and plays in many countries.It's a kind of the world language. Chaplin lived most of his life in America and died in Switzerland on Christmas Day in 1977,at the age of eighty-eight.There was sadness all over the world at the news of his death.
