When Chaplin was five years old, his mother suddenly lost her voice during a performance and had to leave the stage. To help his mother, little Chaplin went on and sang a well-known song at that time. When he was singing, a shower of money poured onto the stage. Chaplin stopped and told the audience he would pick up the money first and then finish the song. The audience laughed. This was only the first of millions of laughs in Chaplin’s legendary career.
卓别林五岁时，他的母亲在一次表演中突然失声，不得不告别舞台。为了帮助母亲，小卓别林接着唱了一首当时很有名的歌。当他在唱歌时，大量的钱涌上了舞台。卓别林停下来对观众说，他先拿起钱，然后再唱完这首歌。观众都笑了。这只是卓别林传奇生涯中无数笑声中的第一个。
Lack of education did not hold Chaplin back from developing the special talent locked inside him. He took his courage and went to see one of the top theatrical agents in London. With no experience at all, he was offered the role of Bill, the paperboy, in a new production of Sherlock Holmes. Sherlock Holmes opened on July 27, 1903, at a huge theater. Chaplin seemed to change overnight. It was as if he had found the thing he was meant to do: to be an actor.
缺乏教育并没有阻止卓别林发展他内在的特殊才能。他鼓起勇气去见伦敦的一位顶级戏剧经纪人。在毫无经验的情况下，他获得了新剧《大侦探福尔摩斯》中一个报童的角色—比尔。夏洛克·福尔摩斯于1903年7月27日在一个大剧场上映。卓别林似乎一夜之间改变了。他似乎终于找到了自己适合做的事—成为一名演员。
