Question

【題目】About the year 1900, a small dark-haired boy named Charlie Chaplin was often seen waiting outside the back entrances of London theatres. He looked thin and hungry, but his blue eyes were determined(堅定的). He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh.

His own father had died from drinking too much. And his mother wasn’t really able to look after Charlie. She was often sick in mind and had to be sent to hospital. So he was sent to a home for children who had no parents. He was cold and poor there and the children were punished for small mistakes.

Thirty years later this same Charlie Chaplin became the king of comedy. Many people must have seen some of his films. People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until tears flowed down their eyes. Even people who don’t understand English can enjoy Chaplin’s films because they are mostly silent. It isn’t what he said that makes us laugh. His comedy doesn’t depend upon words. It depends upon little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world. From his very first appearance they know what to expect from the modest little man with the black moustache(小胡子), wide-open eyes, round black hat and shoes too large for his feet.

【解析】本文是一篇人物介紹，主要介紹了著名喜劇演員卓別林的生平簡介。寫到了他艱苦的童年生活，以及為實現(xiàn)當電影演員的夢想而付出的不懈努力，最后寫到了他的成功，成為世界著名的喜劇大師，他的熒屏形象深受世界各國觀眾的喜愛。

【1】根據(jù)文中句子“So he was sent to a home for children who had no parents.”可知，童年的卓別林被送到兒童收容所，children who had no parents沒有父母的孩子，即是homeless children無家可歸的孩子。

【2】根據(jù)第一段最后的句子“He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh.”可知，卓別林會唱歌跳舞，知道如何逗人發(fā)笑。make people laugh使人發(fā)笑，故答案為laugh。

【3】根據(jù)文中句子“His comedy doesn’t depend upon words. It depends upon little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world.”可知，卓別林創(chuàng)造了一個特殊的屏幕形象，以滑稽幽默的動作取代語言表達，to后跟動詞原形，結合句意可知，答案為create。

【4】根據(jù)后面的表格內容可知，此處是介紹卓別林實現(xiàn)了自己的夢想，故答案為achieving/ realizing 。動詞的形式與表格前兩項要一致。

【5】世界上不同的人會說不同的語言，故答案為different。
