What if you went to the latest movie and found there was no sound？You would probably ask for your money back!Believe it or not，there was a time when movies had no sound at all.These movies were called silent films，and there was one actor that was one of the most famous stars in that time：Charlie Chaplin.
Charlie was born in England in 1889 to pretty talented parents.His dad was an actor，and his mom was a singer and actress.With his parents，Charlie was destined （命中注定的） to be a star!Sadly，his father left the family shortly after Charlie was born，and his mother was ill and could not care for him.So it was up to him to find ways to make a living.
His first performance actually happened because of his mom.She was in the middle of a show when she lost her voice，so Charlie went out to take the place of her.The crowd loved him!Soon he was performing with different groups of people doing vaudeville （雜耍） shows.Although he loved performing，sometimes he did not make enough money，so he did lots of jobs.He was even a toymaker!
An American movie producer discovered Charlie Chaplin and signed （簽約） him.He only made ＄150 a week as a movie star，but at that time it was a great deal for Charlie.
A lot of actors in the movies seemed alike （十分相似） to Charlie.He wanted to make himself stand out，so he created a character called The Tramp.He played this character in many different movies.He made quite a few movies，in one year starring in 35 films!By the time he was 26 years old，he was a famous star.
