　　 Everybody knows Charlie Chaplin, a world-famous funny actor. People everywhere have laughed at Charlie Chaplin's films 31　 tears run down their faces. From his very first 　32 they know what will happen. The little man is always with black moustache, wide-open eyes, round black hat and 　33 too large for his feet. He’ll 　34 through snow, and fall from windows. He’ll fight men who are twice his 　35 or fall in love with women, who 　36 notice him and try to hug them.

The poor man that Charlie Chaplin 　37 in dozens of films makes all kinds of stupid mistakes. He is always in trouble but he never 38 .He dreams of becoming a great man.

Even people who don’t understand English can 　39 Chaplin's films, because they are mostly 　40 .It isn't what he says that makes people laugh. His comedy doesn't depend on words. It depends on little 　41 which mean the 　42 thing to people all over the world.

Chaplin raises his thick eyebrows or rolls his eyes. He hides behind a fat lady or under a table to escape from his 　43 . He dresses well and pretends to be a rich and important man. It is all so hopeless and 　44 that he makes us laugh. This is the 　45 of Chaplin's huge success.

When I was a college student, I did a lot of traveling abroad. That was because a professor 　36 me to do so. She said, “Now is the time for you to travel around the world, 　37 your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun!” I 　38 her.

Since I started to work for a 　39　 company, however, I have done most of my traveling through the Internet. By using the Internet, I have seen the 　40 of many cities on my computer screen. And I have really made business　 41　 , too. With the help of the Internet, I have also got 　　 __42____ about food in different countries.

Therefore, I was beginning to feel that actual trips were 　43 necessary when I happened to read a famous cook’s comment on the Internet. He said, “It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country, because we enjoy food and the 　44 around us at the same. So why don’t you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian 　45 ?” Those words reminded me of my 　46 advice. As information technology 　47 , you might be able to do without making some real trips. But this also means that you will miss the various 　48 you can get from traveling.

Today there are people who 　49 direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet.

We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily 　53 more fruitful. However, we should never let it 　54 our time for face-to-face communication. Let’s make use of information technology more 　55 , and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.
