Everybody knows Charlie Chaplin, a world-famous comedian(喜剧演员). While watching his films, people everywhere laugh until tears run down their faces.

Born in 1889, Chaplin grew up in a poor family. At the age of five, he began to act as a clown to make money and care for his sick mother. Despite the hard times in his early years, he had a clear goal: to become a great stage artist.

And Chaplin did become a great silent movie star years later. He knew what it meant to be poor and what it meant to be a nobody. The littletramp (流浪小子)he played in his films always has a black moustache(小胡子),wide-open eyes, a round black hat and large shoes. The tramp makes all kinds of stupid mistakes, but he never gives up his dream of becoming a great man. Even people who don't understand English can enjoy Chaplin's silent films. It isn't what he says that makes people laugh. His comedy (喜剧) doesn't depend on words. It depends on little actions, which mean the same thing to people all over the world.

That was how Chaplin became one of the greatest comedians in the world. In his book, he told us how to succeed in life: "You have to believe in yourself. That's the secret."

文章大意:本文主要讲述了如何提高记忆力的方法。

【推荐2】阅读下面短文,然后在文后表格内完成内容摘要,每空不超过3个词。

Have you ever been embarrassed because you forgot something important? Perhaps you’ve had experiences like these. You began to introduce the guest speaker to the audience, but then paused (暂停) in horror. You had forgotten her name. You hid jewelry (珠宝) when you went on vacation. When you came back, you couldn’t remember where you’d put it.

Most people have something in common. They’re unaware of a simple but important fact: Memory can be developed. If you just accept that fact, the following will show you how to develop memory.

Relax. If you worry about remembering something, you’ll forget it. Relaxing will enhance your awareness and ability to concentrate. Take deep breaths and tell yourself that you have all the time in the world to remember.

Avoid being negative. If you keep telling yourself that your memory is bad, your mind will come to believe it and you won’t remember things. When you forget something, don’t say, “Oh, I need to have my brain rewired (重新接线).”

To improve your memory, you’ll need to be active. Look for opportunities to exercise your memory. For example, if you’re learning a language, try to actively remember irregular verbs.

You can also make links between what you’re trying to remember and things you already know. For example, if you need to catch a plane at 2:00 p.m., you can imagine a plane in your mind and notice that it has two wings.

【推荐3】When packing(打包)a lunch, you need to remember the rules about food safety.

※ Start with a clean kitchen. Every counter that will have food on it should be cleaned before you start. You should also make sure to wash your hands with warm, soapy water. Make sure you use clean dishes to put the food in.

※ It is important to keep pets off the table. Dogs can’t usually get on it. But cats can jump that high and get on the table. Train your cats not to jump on the table.

※ Use fresh foods to make the lunch. Leftovers from last night’s dinner can be a good choice for lunch the next day. But if you sat around the table after eating, or the food was out for more than two hours, find something else to put in the lunch. If you aren’t sure if the leftovers are still good, throw them out.

※ Clean your lunch box immediately. After eating your lunch, you’d better wash the box that you used to bring lunch at once. Or germs may grow in it and cause lots of disease.

※ Make sure to put your lunch in a cooler place. Foods can go bad very quickly during summer. Put them in cool places to keep cool. The food should not get warmer than forty degrees.
