Charlie was a quick success in the movie theaters. 3. By 1915, he could make over $1,259 a week, which was a huge amount of money at that time. 4.

Even when sound movies became popular in 1923, he continued to make silent pictures. Charlie knew that the silence was a great part of what made his movies so funny. 5. when almost everyone else had changed to sound movies. However, Charlie was still one of the world’s greatest film stars.

Luke Dollar has spent many years in Madagascar studying lemurs (狐猴).

Reporter: What were you like as a kid?

Dollar: As a kid, I was an explorer. I lived with my grandparents on a farm in Alabama. It wasn’t unusual for me to go to the woods. And I enjoyed that. From the time I was 6 to 16 years old I was an actor. My mom asked me to audition

(试演) for a show in Birmingham. I asked my mom to buy me some video games and she promised (答应), so I got the part. Later, I became a professional actor. So for several years I went everywhere from the Alabama farm to many other cities — all over the USA doing stage productions.

Reporter: How did you get into your field of work?

Dollar: I grew up on a farm and I was really a wild child and came to love wild things. I did a lot of photography in high school. I became a photographer and did photography for the local paper. Then I became a student of Duke University. Duke has a primate (灵长类动物的) centre — Lemur Centre. I got a job there as a work study student and met lemurs there for the first time.

Later I had a chance to go to Madagascar and decided to study lemurs.

Reporter: What’s the one thing you can’t travel without?

Dollar: A sense of humour (幽默感) or a can-do attitude is necessary, but my first response (反应) was soy sauce. If we run out of soy sauce, the journey is over.
