阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳答案。
A
It's been more than one hundred years since the actor and film-maker 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 two 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(联袂主演者). Chaplin later wrote, "All children in some form have talents; the trick is to bring them out in them. With Jackie, it was easy."
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 to look after her sons, so they had to take care of themselves. He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based 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.
