Everybody knows Charlie Chaplin, a world-famous funny actor. People everywhere have laughed at Charlie Chaplin's films 31　 tears run down their faces. From his very first 　32 they know what will happen. The little man is always with black moustache, wide-open eyes, round black hat and 　33 too large for his feet. He’ll 　34 through snow, and fall from windows. He’ll fight men who are twice his 　35 or fall in love with women, who 　36 notice him and try to hug them.

The poor man that Charlie Chaplin 　37 in dozens of films makes all kinds of stupid mistakes. He is always in trouble but he never 38 .He dreams of becoming a great man.

Even people who don’t understand English can 　39 Chaplin's films, because they are mostly 　40 .It isn't what he says that makes people laugh. His comedy doesn't depend on words. It depends on little 　41 which mean the 　42 thing to people all over the world.

Chaplin raises his thick eyebrows or rolls his eyes. He hides behind a fat lady or under a table to escape from his 　43 . He dresses well and pretends to be a rich and important man. It is all so hopeless and 　44 that he makes us laugh. This is the 　45 of Chaplin's huge success.
