Charlie Chaplin has broken all records in making people laugh.No one has so set a whole world laughing as the little man with the walking stick and the overlarge shoes.Much has been written about Chaplin's art and his career,and opinions have ranged widely.But perhaps those who called him the most general human being of our time came closest to the truth.Those who have called him a genius stress the timeless and common qualities in his work.It is an art filled with sad elements and deep human feeling,with which an audience cannot help but become involved.It is for these reasons,I believe,that the figure of Charlie has attracted generation after generation.All the writers who give accounts of Chaplin's life agree that Charlie's unhappy early years in London had a great influence on his development and on the type of films he made.The more one reads about his earliest period,the more one tends to agree.Indeed,his suffering youth had a lasting influence on him. Chaplin was never afraid to deal with subjects causing much disagreement in his films.He gave a humorous performance on war only a few weeks before the American soldiers came home from World War I in 1918.This was regarded as mad,but the performance was well received. Chaplin gave numerous performances attacking capital governments,and even making fun of Hitler.Years after his death,the funny films of motion picture actor and director Charlie Chaplin continue to be popular. 1.All of the following about Charlie Chaplin are true except________. A.he was born in the USA B.he was a great film actor C.he had an unhappy early life D.he made fun of Hitler in his films 2.According to the author,Charlie Chaplin has been popular with generation after generation because________.
