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 doesn’t depend on 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 eyebrows. 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 young men, he and his brother traveled to America as actors in a small company 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 used the items that made his reputation • the black hat, tight coat, big trousers, huge shoes, moustache and walking stick. He intended simply to make people laugh. But the odd disguises made him look both comic and sad.
His appearance was a popular success, right from the beginning. But his early films didn’t have many stories. 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.
With the help of his odd appearance, Chaplin intended to look________.
选项
A、rich
B、funny
C、successful
D、impressive
答案
B
解析
根据第三段最后两旬“He intended simply to make people laugh.But the odd disguises made him look both comic and sad.”可知,卓别林只是为了让人发笑,但古怪的装扮使他看起来既滑稽又显得悲哀。由此可推知,卓别林的古怪装扮是为了让自己看上去好笑(funny)。A项意为“富有的”;C项意为“获得成功的”;D项意为“令人赞叹的。给人印象深刻的”,这三项均不符合题意。故选B。
