Charlie Chaplin’s(卓别林)comedy was rich in creativity and cleverness. His ability to make people laugh by being humorous and funny was a rare gift. On stage, he always wore a small black hat, a pair of trousers which were wide and a moustache, and carried a stick that he swung(swing---舞动)in the air as he walked. Born in London, England on April 16th, 1889, Chaplin lived with his mother who made a living by sewing. She had some illness and sometimes was unable to work or deal with ordinary situations of life, leaving Charlie and his elder brother Sidney taking care of themselves or to live in a home which was supported by the government. When Chaplin was 9, he toured with a stage company and had his first taste of life on the stage. He later took small acting jobs and toured with several troupes(剧团). He finally toured the United States and decided to stay there in 1912. After reaching the United States, he had parts in nine movies in only two months. Although his parts were small, his star quickly rose with the introduction of his world-famous tramp(流浪者)character. However, he wasn’t satisfied to only act before camera, so he began to direct as well. At the age of 25, he directed his first film, “Twenty Minutes of Love”. This began an interesting part of his professional(职业的)life. Satire(讽刺)was a comedic tool used by Chaplin and was most clear in his first sound film “The Great Dictator” which was released(发行)in 1940. In the film, he used the dangerous ideas of Adolf Hitler(希特勒). The German ruler must have appreciated the humorous film because it was believed that he grew his mustache in imitation of(模仿)Chaplin. Though having experienced a number of ups and downs, he perfected his artistic skills. Charlie Chaplin is larger than life and deserves to be a legend.

Answer the following according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. (8%) Write your answers on your answer sheet. Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you know was in trouble-and he was? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP. ESP stands for Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away. Here is an example: A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she screamed. “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair!” Just then, a telegram came. The woman’s father had died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair. There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages. Here’s another example — one of hundreds of dreams that have come true. A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, “There’s room for one more.” The man felt the driver was Death, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said, “There's room for one more. ” Then the man saw the driver’s face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn’t get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed! Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences (巧合). Others, including some scientists say that ESP is true. From studies of ESP, we may some day learn more about the human mind. 68.What may people with ESP know about?( No more than 12 words) ______________________________________________________________. 69.How many examples does the author give to show that people may have ESP?
