It's been 100 years since the actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin produced the film The Kid, which many consider to be his greatest one.
Like all films at the time, The Kid was made in black and white and was silent(made without any sound, not even the characters talking). The story is about the relationship between "the Tramp", played by Chaplin, and his adopted(领养的) child, played by Jackie Coogan. The pair develop a partnership
where the six - year - old boy breaks windows and runs away, so that Chaplin's character can offer his services as a window fixer.
Although the film is a comedy, it also has some tragedy, reflecting Chaplin's own life. He started testing actors for the role of the Kid just a few days after his baby son had died. Chaplin was known for being hard to please, and it is said that if he could, he would have played every role in every one of his films. When Chaplin visited a theatre, a dancer brought his son, Jackie
Coogan, on stage, and Chaplin knew he had his co - star(联决主演者). Chaplin later wrote, "All children in some form have talents; the trick is to bring it out in them. With Jackie it was eass. "
Like the Kid in the film, Chaplin and his brother Sydney grew up very poor. They lived in London and were raised by their mother. When Chaplin was 10 years old, his mum became too ill tolook after her sons, so they had to take care of themselves. He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based (基于) on the places where he and Sydney had lived with their mother as children. "Perhaps that's why the film had some truth, "he said.

What is the most popular body building in 2018 Plogging, which is a mash-up（混合）of jogging and the Swedish （瑞典语）“plocka upp” , meaning pick up, has come into our eyes.
The idea of plogging was created by Erik Ahlstrom, a Swedish. He was surprised by the amount of rubbish there in nature. The same rubbish could remain in the road for several weeks without anyone picking it up. So he made up his mind to do something to change it. He started picking it up. To his surprise, stopping to clean up rubbish became a habit then part of his exercise plan as he put the activity into his runs. By 2016, other people were joining in, and plogging runs became official events in Sweden. They run with trash bags and gloves. After plogging, they will have a competition to see who picks up the most rubbish. Nowadays, plogging has attracted more people to take part in.
According to fitness app Lifesum, which allows users to record calories （卡路里）burned while plogging, plogging bums more calories as it requires some bending （弯腰）and some strength to hold all the rubbish — a half hour of plogging will bum 288 calories on average, compared （与……相比）to just 235 calories from jogging.
1. Who came up with the idea of plogging
_______________________________________________________________________
2. What do people do during plogging
______________________________________________________________________
3. Both jogging and plogging are healthy and interesting. Which one do you like better Why

What is the most popular body building in 2018 Plogging, which is a mash-up（混合）of jogging and the Swedish （瑞典语）“plocka upp” , meaning pick up, has come into our eyes.
The idea of plogging was created by Erik Ahlstrom, a Swedish. He was surprised by the amount of rubbish there in nature. The same rubbish could remain in the road for several weeks without anyone picking it up. So he made up his mind to do something to change it. He started picking it up. To his surprise, stopping to clean up rubbish became a habit then part of his exercise plan as he put the activity into his runs. By 2016, other people were joining in, and plogging runs became official events in Sweden. They run with trash bags and gloves. After plogging, they will have a competition to see who picks up the most rubbish. Nowadays, plogging has attracted more people to take part in.
According to fitness app Lifesum, which allows users to record calories （卡路里）burned while plogging, plogging bums more calories as it requires some bending （弯腰）and some strength to hold all the rubbish — a half hour of plogging will bum 288 calories on average, compared （与……相比）to just 235 calories from jogging.

九、Recently, I’ve done a survey about whether students like to watch movies at home or in the cinema. 64% of the students like to watch movies at home. For one thing, they can spend less money. For another, they will have more choices of what to watch.
However, others prefer going to the cinema. Form their point of view, they will have the chance to enjoy huge screens and feel excellent sound in the cinema, which can always give them a wonderful watching experience.
Personally speaking, watching movies in the cinema is a better choice. I can hand out with my friends and it’s really exciting. At the same time, it’s a good way to develop friendship.
