单选题 About the year 1900, people in London often saw a small
boy waiting outside the London theatres. He looked very thin, but his blue eyes
were determined (坚定). His name was Charlie Chaplin. He was there because he
hoped to get work in show business. His father had died for drinking too much
wine. His mother was not able to look after him and his brother because she was
often sick. It was not easy to get a job. Charlie had to dance in the streets to
make money for food. When he was 17, he went to America. A film director (导演)
saw him acting a very funny part in a play. So Chaplin got his first film part.
During his lifetime, he played in 13 movies. He was one of the greatest actors.
He once wrote: "You have to believe in yourself. Even when I was dancing in the
streets to make money to keep alive, I thought of myself as the greatest actor
in the world." He died in 1977 at the age of 88. The whole world was very sad at
the news of his death.
