Do you know the story about the Chinese lion dance? In ancient times, people thought the lion was the only animal that could frighten the monster (恶魔)away, so they made a "lion" out of bamboo, cloth and paper to drive the monster away. That is why the lion dance is performed today to bring good luck and happiness.
But do you know anything else about Chinese dances? The first dances in China were performed before writing was invented! There are ceramics (陶器)showing dances in China about 6,000 years ago. The hands and feet were used to express thoughts, for example about the harvest, so dance was a means of communicating ideas. It was not only performed as something beautiful to look at.
Around 1,200 years ago, Chinese dance was perhaps at its peak. The whole body was used and there were wonderful costumes, poems, stories, music and songs.
In modern times, young people who want to become dancers in China usually learn ballet first and then they study and perform traditional Chinese dances, such as folk dances. Folk dances are dances that common people perform on special occasions (场合)，usually in groups.
Have you heard of the Cloud Gate Dance Theatre (云门舞集)？ It was set up in 1973 in Taiwan and performs modern dances, in China and abroad. These dances use movements from Chinese theatre and from other countries, especially America, which developed modern dance in the early twentieth century.

Charlie Chaplin was born in London on 16 April 1889. His parents were music hall actors. The Chaplin family was very poor. Charlie used to do his mother's job in the theatre when she was ill.
When he was only 17 years old, Chaplin got his first real job as an actor. What he did was to do silly things to make people laugh in the theatre. Seven years later he went to the USA. And over the next four years, he formed his own way of art. He developed the character of a homeless gentleman that became very popular.
From the 1920s to the 1950s, Chaplin made his most famous films. The film Modern Times (1936) shows his care about the modern industry workers. Many of his films describe the poor life and hard time of the working people during that period.
