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. 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 home for children who had no parents.
But twenty years later this same Chaplin became the greatest,best known,and best loved comedian in
the world. Any regular visitors to the cinema must have seen some of Charlie Chaplin's films. People
everywhere have laughed at them until tears have run down their faces. Even people who don't understand English can enjoy Chaplin's films because they are mostly silent. It isn't what he says that makes us laugh. It depends on little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world. Acting out,without
words, the common human play an important part in the dances and plays of many countries. It's a kind of world language.
Chaplin lived most of his life in America and died in Switzerland on Christmas Day in 1977 at the age of eightiy-eight. There was sadness all over the world at the news of his death.

The Internet is a big place. Nobody has the time to look at every webpage(网页) to find something. Yahoo can help
us to find what we need.
Two Stanford University students, David Filo and Jerry Yang started Yahoo in 1994. They started by making a list of
their favourite webpages. When their list got longer, they made a database(数据库) to keep their information. They let
everybody use it for free. Soon, thousands of people began to use their service.
They then made a new kind of software. It could take certain information and arrange it for someone to look at. If you
search for, say, "blue whales", the engine will give you a list of webpages with those words.
Yahoo became a public company in 1996. Filo and Yang, still young men, became rich. As their company grew, they
went on working hard. They improved their software. They also added more services, like shopping, free e-mail, in many
different countries and languages.
Yahoo. com is famous on the Internet. And unlike most other Web companies, Yahoo earns much money in fact.
