Ⅰ. 阅读简答。
As we all know, Charles Dickens was a great English writer. He’s famous not only in England, but also in many other countries around the world. He was born in 1812 and lived in London for most of his life.
He wrote lots of books, and he enjoyed acting very much in his free time. He was also an excellent actor. The humorous characters and interesting dialogues in his books often make people laugh a lot. Maybe that is the main reason why his books were so popular among people of all ages. His stories first appeared in a magazine in parts a long time ago. Because people always wanted to read more of his stories, he wrote many stories, and most of them quickly became very popular in many cities. There were many famous films and plays based on his books. For example, Oliver Twist and Great Expectations have both been successfully made into wonderful plays and exciting films.
Dickens’ early life was very painful and full of difficulties. His family was poor, and his mother sent him out to work in a small factory when he was twelve. He hated the hard work there, and he later used these special experiences in his writing. He married Catherine Hogarth in his twenties and they had a big and happy family. He was still busy writing a story when he died in 1870. But what a pity! We’ll never know its real ending, and it becomes a great regret for all his readers.
