Charles Dickens was born in 1812. He lived in the south of England when he was a little boy. His father worked in an office. He was a very clever man, but he was very poor. Charles had many brothers and sisters, but he did not often play with them. His father had many books and Charles liked to read them. He learned to read very early. When Charles was 10 years old, his family went to London. There his fathe got into debt (as he had little money) and then into debtor's prison. So little Charles began to work when he was ten. That was the beginning of Charles' hard life.Чарлз Диккенс родился в 1812 году. В детстве он жил на юге Англии. Его отец работал в конторе. Он был очень умным, но очень бедным человеком. У Чарлза было много братьев и сестер, но он редко с ними играл. У его отца была большая библиотека, и Чарлз любил читать. Читать он научился рано. Когда Чарлзу было десять лет, его семья переехала в Лондон. Там его отец залез в долги (поскольку у него было мало денег) и затем попал в долговую тюрьму. Поэтому маленький Чарлз начал работать в десять лет. Это было началом тяжелой жизни Чарлза.
He worked at a small factory in London, pasting labels on blacking bottles. He had to work in a dirty room with no windows. He did not like his work, but he had to work at the factory for two years. Then he went to school for three years, but he did not learn much at school. He learned much at home, from his father and from other clever people. Later he worked as a reporter to the Parliament and became a writer of short stories. In 1837 he published his first novel "The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club". And the young reporter became a famous writer. Then he published novel after novel - "Oliver Twist", "Dombey and Son", "David Copperfield" and many other good books.В Лондоне он работал на маленькой фабрике, где наклеи­вал этикетки на бутылочки с ваксой. Ему приходилось работать в грязной комнате, где не было окон. Работа ему не нравилась, но он проработал на фабрике два года. За­тем он три года учился в школе, однако там он немногому научился. Гораздо больше он узнал дома, от отца и других умных людей. Позже он работал репортером по вопросам деятель­ности парламента и начал писать рассказы. В 1837 г. он опубликовал свой первый роман "Посмерт­ные записки Пиквикского клуба". И после этого молодой репортер стал известным писателем. Затем он публико­вал романы один за другим - "Оливер Твист", "Домби и сын", "Дэвид Копперфилд" и многие другие книги.His books are very interesting, they teu us aoout the hard life of the poor people in England of that time. When we read his books, we sometimes laugh, but we often want to cry. Charles Dickens died in  1870. He is one of the greatest novelists in the English literature. Dickens lived more than a hundred years ago, but people in the whole world like to read his books today, because in his books he showed a real world and people of Victorian England.  Его книги очень интересные, в них говорится о тяже­лой жизни бедных людей в Англии того времени. Когда мы читаем его книги, то иногда смеемся, но часто нам хочется плакать. Чарлз Диккенс умер в 1870 г. Он является одним из величайших романистов в анг­лийской литературе. Диккенс жил более ста лет назад, но и сегодня людям во всем мире нравится читать его книги, потому что в них он показал подлинный мир и людей, живших в викторианской Англии.
