Unit 3 A taste of English humour A MASTER OF NONVERBAL HUMOUR As Victor Hugo once said, “Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face”, and up to now nobody has been able to do this better than Charlie Chaplin. He brightened the lives of Americans and British through two world wars and the hard years in between. He made people laugh at a time when they felt depressed, so they could feel more content with their lives. Not that Charlie’s own life was easy! He was born in a poor family in 1889. His parents were both poor music hall performers. You may find it astonishing that Charlie was taught to sing as soon as he could speak and dance as soon as he could walk. Such training was common in acting families at this time, especially when the family income was often uncertain. Unfortunately his father died, leaving the family even worse off, so Charlie spent his childhood looking 10 after his sick mother and his brother. By his teens, Charlie had, through his humour, become one of the most popular child actors in England. He could mime and act the fool doing ordinary everyday tasks. No one was ever bored watching him - his subtle acting made everything entertaining. As time went by, he began making films. He grew more and more popular as his charming character, the little tramp, became known throughout the world. The tramp,a poor, homeless man with a moustache, wore large trousers, worn-out shoes and a small round black hat. He walked around stiffly carrying a walking stick. This character was a social failure but was loved for his optimism and determination to overcome all difficulties. He was the underdog who was kind even when others were unkind to him. How did the little tramp make a sad situation entertaining? Here is an example from one of his most famous films, The Gold Rush. It is toward the end of the nineteenth century and gold has just been discovered in Alaska. Like so many others, the little tramp has rushed there in search of gold, but without success. Instead he and another man are hiding in a small hut during a snowstorm with nothing to eat. They are so hungry that the little tramp tries boiling one of his leather shoes for dinner. Charlie cuts off the leather top of the shoe and shares the shoe with the other fellow. He tries cutting and chewing the bottom of the shoe as if it were the finest steak. Then he picks out the lace of the shoe and eats it as if it were spaghetti. He eats each 30 mouthful with great enjoyment. The acting is so convincing that it makes you believe that it is one of the best meals he has ever tasted. Charlie Chaplin wrote, directed and produced the films he starred in. In 1972 he was given a special Oscar for his outstanding work in films. He lived in England and the USA but spent his last years in Switzerland, where he was buried in 1977. He is loved and remembered as a great 35 actor who could inspire people with great confidence. 1.Read the passage again and write down the main idea of each paragraph.

House work might seem a drag，but researchers have suggested tasks like dusting，sweeping floors and washing the windows might help adults to stay healthy into old age.Writing in the journal BMJ Open，a Singapore-based team of researchers said regular physical activity "improves physical and mental health，and relieves the risks and effects of chronic diseases among older adults". The team randomly chose adults from the town of Yishun in Singapore，and asked them to complete cognitive function tests as well as activities to assess their physical capabilities，such as standing up from a chair as quickly as they could.Participants were also quizzed on their levels of physical activity，including the amount of light housework and heavy housework they did，and were assessed for their risk of having a fall based on measures such as knee extension strength.The study involved 249 participants aged 21-64 and 240 participants aged 65- 90.Most of those who reported doing high levels of heavy or light housework were women. After taking into account factors including age and sex，the team found cognitive scores and attention scores were 8% and 14% higher respectively for older adults doing high amounts of heavy housework— on average 131 minutes a week— compared with low levels，which appeared to amount to none at all.Sit-to-stand times were lower for older adults reporting high amounts of heavy housework compared with low amounts，while they were also assessed as being at lower risk of having a fall. Dr Shiou-Liang Wee，the co-author of the research，said health messaging on staying active should not just be about recreational physical activities. "Housework is a purposeful activity performed by many older adults.Independent of recreation，commuting and other work-related physical activity，heavy housework is linked to sharper memory and better falls protection in older adults，" he said.（1）What does the team find？ ____ A．Housework is a drag to the aged.B．Health is connected with regular exercise.C．Only doing housework can the aged stay healthy.D．Regular physical activity is dangerous for the aged.（2）What is paragraph 2 mainly about？ ____ A．The research procedure.B．The research result.C．The research purpose.D．The research institution.（3）What was considered in the study？ ____ A．Intelligence and age.B．Education and sex.C．Age and sex.D．Family and income.（4）What may Shiou-Liang Wee agree with？ ____ A．Commuting is linked to sharper memory.B．Heavy housework equals recreational activity.C．People only need recreational physical activity for health.D．Recreational physical activity shouldn't replace housework.
