CHARLIE CHAPLIN – A COMIC GENIUS
1
One of the most important and influential figures in the history of motion pictures, Charlie Chaplin was perhaps the greatest comedian to have ever lived. He made his reputation in 1914 when, in his second film, Kid Auto Races at Venice, he introduced the world to the helpless “little tramp.” With his smudge moustache, baggy trousers and bowler hat, and twirling his cane, the tramp soon had cinema audiences entranced. It was a fantastic creation, stirring up emotions, both happy and sad, and Chaplin played that classic role in more than 70 films during his career, earning him both a fortune and international fame.
2
Chaplin’s beginnings never promised such success. Though born into a wealthy London family, the good times quickly disappeared. His father deserted when Charlie was an infant (and later died of alcoholism) and his mother, a successful music hall star, had a nervous breakdown and was sent to an asylum. Charlie thus found himself in an orphanage. It was the theatre that gave Chaplin his first release from the pressures of troubled life. He made his debut in 1894, appearing on stage with his mother. Later he became part of Fred Karno’s music hall troupe and went with them on their American tour of 1912. It was while the company was in the United States that the young Chaplin was spotted by the film director Mack Sennett and signed to Keystone Films at 150 dollars a week. Over the next few months Chaplin made dozens of films for Keystone many of which featured his newly created “little tramp” character.

TEXTO 2:
CHARLIE CHAPLIN: THE LATER YEARS
1
Chaplin’s subsequent films, like The Tramp and Shanghaied, firmly established his reputation and, as his fame rose, so too did his salary and his power. By 1917 Chaplin was able to demand a million dollars for eight pictures. By now Chaplin was taking an increasing amount of control over his work: writing, directing, producing and even composing the music for many of the films in which he starred. In 1919 that control became complete with Chaplin, along with Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and D. W. Griffith, forming United Artists as an independent company to distribute their films.
2
The introduction of sound to the cinema, however, brought an end to Chaplin’s greatness. His style of performance, derived from the circus clown and from mime, no longer seemed to work its magic. He avoided using the new technology for his films City Lights and Modern Times but embraced it in his 1936 movie, The Great Dictator. Though Chaplin continued to make the occasional film, and also wrote two books, his glory days were over. His leftist politics brought him in for a good deal of criticism (as did an affair with a young woman) and investigation by the Un-American Affairs Commission. As a result, Chaplin left the U.S. in 1952 and, having been refused re-entry, made his home in Switzerland. In 1972 he returned to the United States to receive several tributes, among them a special Academy Award for his contributions to the film industry. Three years later he was knighted. Chaplin died on December 25th 1977. Among his obituaries was a quote from the actor in 1960: “I remain one thing and one thing only, and that is a clown. It places me on a far higher plane than any politician.”

MOVIES AND PHOTOGRAPHS
If we want to learn about other societies, it is not always necessary to travel. We can discover what happens in other parts of the world by watching movies. It is difficult to imagine an easier method of learning about other countries. Nowadays movies not only tell stories or record important historical happenings. They also record for us the actions and habits of ordinary people. Much of our present knowledge of living forms and of objects in distant space, too, is obtained from movies and photographs.

2 No domingo antes do Natal, muitas igrejas celebram uma cerimônia de cânticos de Natal em que são cantados hinos especiais. Por vezes, ouvem-se nas ruas cantores de canções de Natal que recolhem dinheiro para obras de caridade.
Most families decorate their houses with brightly-colored paper, and they usually have a Christmas tree in the corner of the front room, glittering with colored lights and decorations.
A maior parte das famílias enfeita as suas casas com papel de cores vivas e, normalmente, têm uma árvore de Natal no canto da sala da frente, a brilhar com luzes coloridas e decorações.
3 There are a lot of traditions connected with Christmas, but perhaps the most important one is the giving of presents. Family members wrap up their gifts and leave them at the bottom of the Christmas tree to be found on Christmas morning. Small children believe that their gifts come from Santa Claus.
3 Há muitas tradições relacionadas com o Natal, mas talvez a mais importante seja a entrega de presentes. Os membros da família embrulham as suas prendas e deixam-nas no fundo da árvore de Natal para serem encontradas na manhã de Natal. As crianças pequenas acreditam que os seus presentes vêm do Papai Noel.
Their parents tell them that Santa Claus lives in the North Pole and, on the night before Christmas, he travels the world in a sled pulled by reindeer. He goes down the chimneys of houses to leave gifts only for children who have been good. At some time on Christmas Day, the family will sit down to a big turkey dinner followed by desserts specially prepared for the occasion.
Os pais dizem-lhes que o Papai Noel vive no Pólo Norte e que, na noite anterior ao Natal, viaja pelo mundo num trenó puxado por renas. Ele desce pelas chaminés das casas para deixar presentes apenas às crianças que se portaram bem. No dia de Natal, a família senta-se à mesa para um grande jantar de peru, seguido de sobremesas especialmente preparadas para a ocasião.
4 Later in the afternoon, they may watch the Queen on television as she delivers her traditional Christmas message to the United Kingdom. If they have room for even more food they may enjoy a piece of Christmas cake. December 26th is also a public holiday, and this is the time to visit friends and relatives or be a spectator at one of the many sporting events.
4 No final da tarde, podem assistir à transmissão televisiva da mensagem tradicional de Natal da Rainha para o Reino Unido. Se houver espaço para mais comida, podem saborear uma fatia de bolo de Natal. O dia 26 de dezembro é também feriado e esta é a hora de visitar amigos e familiares ou assistir a um dos muitos eventos desportivos.

THANKSGIVING
DIA DE AÇÃO DE GRAÇAS
In 1620 one of the first British settlements in America was established in Massachusetts. These settlers, known as Pilgrims, had come to America to freely practise their religion. They arrived in November, when it was too late to plant crops. Although many people died, the Pilgrim settlement survived the winter because of help from Indians who lived nearby.
Em 1620, uma das primeiras colônias britânicas na América foi estabelecida em Massachusetts. Estes colonos, conhecidos como Peregrinos, tinham vindo para a América para praticar livremente a sua religião. Chegaram em novembro, quando já era demasiado tarde para plantar. Embora muitas pessoas tenham morrido, a colônia dos Peregrinos sobreviveu ao inverno graças à ajuda dos índios que viviam nas proximidades.
The Indians taught the Pilgrims about corn and showed them where to fish. The next November, after the crops were harvested, the Pilgrims gave thanks to God at a feast to which they invited the Indians.
Os índios ensinaram os peregrinos sobre o milho e mostraram-lhes onde pescar. No mês de novembro seguinte, após a colheita, os peregrinos deram graças a Deus numa festa para a qual convidaram os índios.
Every year, Americans celebrate Thanksgiving. Families and friends get together for a big feast. The meal usually includes roast turkey with stuffing and gravy, a sweet sauce made from cranberries, sweet potatoes, and pumpkin pie. What a meal! It’s not surprising that a recent Thanksgiving tradition is to sit after dinner in front of the TV watching a professional football game.
Todos os anos, os americanos celebram o Dia de Ação de Graças. As famílias e os amigos juntam-se para um grande banquete. A refeição inclui normalmente peru assado com recheio e molho, um molho doce feito de arandos, batatas doces e tarte de abóbora. Que refeição! Não é de admirar que uma tradição recente do Dia de Ação de Graças seja sentar-se depois do jantar em frente à televisão a ver um jogo de futebol profissional.

GHOSTS AND WITCHES
FANTASMAS E BRUXAS
Halloween means “holy evening”, and takes place on October 31st. Although it is a much more important festival in the United States than Britain, it is celebrated by many people in the UK. It is particularly connected with witches and ghosts.
Halloween significa "noite santa" e tem lugar a 31 de outubro. Embora seja uma festa muito mais importante nos Estados Unidos do que na Grã-Bretanha, é celebrada por muitas pessoas no Reino Unido. Está particularmente ligado às bruxas e aos fantasmas.
At parties people dress up in strange costumes and pretend they are witches. They cut horrible faces in pumpkins and other vegetables and put a candle inside, which shines through the eyes. People may play difficult games such as trying to eat an apple from a bucket of water without using their hands.
Nas festas, as pessoas vestem-se com fatos estranhos e fingem que são bruxas. Cortam caras horríveis em abóboras e outros legumes e colocam uma vela no interior, que brilha através dos olhos. As pessoas podem fazer jogos difíceis, como tentar comer uma maçã de um balde de água sem usar as mãos.
In recent years children dressed in white sheets knock on doors at Halloween and ask if you would like a “trick” or “treat”. If you give them something nice, a “treat”, they go away. However, if you don’t, they play a “trick” on you, such as making a lot of noise or spilling flour on your front doorstep!
Nos últimos anos, crianças vestidas com lençóis brancos batem às portas no Dia das Bruxas e perguntam se querem uma "travessura" ou um "doce". Se lhes dermos algo de bom, uma "guloseima", elas vão-se embora. No entanto, se não der, elas pregam-lhe uma "partida", como por exemplo fazer muito barulho ou entornar farinha na sua porta!
