【解析】

试题分析：文章描述了卓别林的精彩演技、表演片段及其对喜剧的巨大贡献。

【1】 starred.考查动词时态。此处与全文时态和and后的directed一致，也用过去时，star的过去式需要双写r，故填starred。

【2】 watching.考查动词形式。be bored doing sth.厌倦做某事，故填watching。

【3】 detectives.考查名词。detective是可数名词，在此指一类人用作复数形式，故填detectives。

【4】 with.考查固定搭配。be╱feel content with对…感到满意，是固定短语，故填with。

【5】 wearing.考查现在分词。此处是现在分词作定语修饰person，指穿着磨破了的鞋的人，故填wearing。

【6】 messy.考查形容词。此处修饰名词clothes，指脏乱的衣服，故填messy。

【7】 was trapped.考查时态和语态。与全文时态一致用过去时，句中主语he和动词trap是被动关系，故填过去时的被动形式was trapped。

【8】 but.考查连词。句意：他克服了许多困难，但他也不是足够幸运。前后句是转折关系，故填but。

【9】 eaten.考查过去分词。此处是with的复合结构，the porridge和动词eat是被动关系，用过去分词，指粥被吃，故填eaten。

【10】 convincing.考查形容词。此处是so...that句型，so后加形容词，此处与and后的amusing一致，故填convincing。
