阅读理解。 Charles Dickens (1812-1870), the great 19th century English novelist, was born near Portsmouth. His father

ran heavily into debt and when he was 12, he had to go to work in a factory for making boot polish. The only

formal education he received was a two-year schooling at a school for poor children. In fact, he had to teach

himself all he knew. He worked for a time as a junior clerk in a lawyer's office. After that, he worked as a

reporter in the law courts, and later in parliament, for London newspapers. His career as a writer of fiction

began in 1833 with short stories and essays in periodicals, and in 1837 his comic novel The Pickwick Papers

made him the most popular author at his time in England.

He was a observer of people and their places because he was attracted by life and conditions in the mid-

nineteenth century London. He wrote 19 novels all his life and in many of them, Dickens gave a realistic picture

of all classes of England society, showing deep sympathy for the poor and unfortunate, exposing the injustice

and inhumanity of the bourgeoisie (资本主义).

Two Cities drew attention to the unsatisfactory social conditions that existed in England over 100 years ago.
