A

About the year 1900, a small, dark-haired hot boy named Charlie Chaplin was often seen waiting outside the back entrance of London theatres. He looked thin and hungry. He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn’t get work and so he wandered（流浪）about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had no parents.

But twenty years later this name Chaplin became the greatest, best-known, and best-loved comedian（喜剧演员）in the world. Any visitor to the cinema must have seen some of Chaplin’s filmstrips. People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until the tears ran down their faces. Even people who don’t understand English can enjoy Chaplin’s films though most of them are silent. It isn’t what he says that makes us laugh. His comedy doesn’t depend upon words and languages. It depends upon little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world. Acting out, without words, common human situations plays an important part in the dances and plays of many countries. It’s kind of world language.

Chaplin lived most of his life in America and died in Switzerland on Christmas Day, 1977, at the age of eighty-eight. There was sadness all over the world at the news of the death.

56. Why was young Chaplin waiting outside the back entrance of the theatre? 　A. Because he had no money to buy a ticket. 　B. Because he wanted to get a returned ticket. 　C. Because he wanted to play a part in a play in order to make a living. 　D. Because he wanted to see the famous actors or actress after the performance.

57. It was ________ that made people enjoy his films. 　A. wonderful dialogues　　 　 　B. the beautiful music 　C. his funny appearance　　　　 D. his own manner of acting

58. What is a kind of world language according to the story? 　A. The cinema.　　　　　　　　　　 B. The theatre. 　C. Acting out without words.　　　　　D. A common language.

59. The reason why Chaplin is regarded as king of comedy is that _______. 　A. his films are most silent 　B. he knew how to make people laugh 　C. he could not only act but also write comedies 　D. he acted out the common human situation best in his comedy

60. What doesn’t Chaplin’s comedy depend on? 　A. Common human situations.　　　　B. Actions. 　C. Words and languages.　　　　　　 D. Acting out.

B

“If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.

The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives — the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do — as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings reall
