Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

  Charlie Chaplin's(卓别林)comedy was rich in creativity and cleverness.His ability to make people laugh by being humorous and funny was a rare gift.On stage, he always wore a small black hat, a pair of trousers which were wide and a moustache, and carried a stick that he swung(swing-舞动)in the air as he walked.

  Born in London, England on April 16th, 1889, Chaplin lived with his mother who made a living by sewing.She had some illness and sometimes was unable to work or deal with ordinary situations of life, leaving Charlie and his elder brother Sidney taking care of themselves or to live in a home which was supported by the government.

  When Chaplin was 9, he toured with a stage company and had his first taste of life on the stage.He later took small acting jobs and toured with several troupes(剧团).He finally toured the United States and decided to stay there in 1912.

  After reaching the United States, he had parts in nine movies in only two months.Although his parts were small, his star quickly rose with the introduction of his world-famous tramp(流浪者)character.However, he wasn't satisfied to only act before camera, so he began to direct as well.At the age of 25, he directed his first film,“Twenty Minutes of Love”.This began an interesting part of his professional(职业的)life.

  Satire(讽刺)was a comedic tool used by Chaplin and was most clear in his first sound film“The Great Dictator”which was released(发行)in 1940.In the film, he used the dangerous ideas of Adolf Hitler(希特勒).The German ruler must have appreciated the humorous film because it was believed that he grew his mustache in imitation of(模仿)Chaplin.

  Though having experienced a number of ups and downs, he perfected his artistic skills.Charlie Chaplin is larger than life and deserves to be a legend.
