Even people who don’ t understand English can enjoy Chaplin’ s films because they are almost silent. It isn’ t what he says that makes us laugh. His comedy(喜剧)doesn’ t depend upon words of language, but on the little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world.
In his films, Chaplin raises his thick black eyebrow(眉毛). He straightens his coat or swings his walking stick in the air. He hides behind a fat lady or climbs under a table to escape from his enemies. Trying to be brave, he faints away on the floor. He pretends to be what he is not and never could be—a rich, successful, important man. It is the secret of Chaplin’s huge success.
He discovered the character of the little tramp almost by accident. As a young man, he and his brother traveled to America in a small company of actors and acted in various cities. One day Chaplin was invited to join a new company that was making comedies. It was in his second film that he wore the clothes that made his reputation: black hat, tight coat, big trousers, huge shoes, moustache(胡须.)and walking stick. He intended simply to make people laugh. But the odd disguises(扮相)made him look both comic and sad.
His appearance was a popular success, right from the beginning. But his early films hadn’ t much story. They were full of actions. The little man played fast-moving games of hide-and-seek with his enemies, racing down city streets, jumping on trains, and boating down rivers.
The word "tramp" in Paragraph 3 may mean a "______".
选项
A、person who walks far
B、person who walks heavily
C、person who is lucky
D、homeless person who moves about
答案
D
解析
词语理解题。根据文章后面描述卓别林在电影里的动作以及“comic and sad”可知,tramp一词应与sad相对应,表示一些不好的含义。A项意为“走得很远的 人”,B项意为“走得沉重的人”,C项意为“幸运的人”,均不符合题意。故选D(无家 可归的人)。tramp意为“流浪汉”。
