Answer

Charlie Chaplin was an English film actor.
- Explanation:
Charlie Chaplin, born in England in 1889, was a renowned film actor known for his iconic silent film performances. He is considered one of the greatest actors in the history of cinema and was a pioneer in the early days of Hollywood. Chaplin's comedic timing, physicality, and ability to convey emotions without words made him a beloved figure in the film industry. Despite his worldwide fame, he always remained connected to his English roots and identified himself as an English film actor.

Answer

Option A is incorrect as 'A 'can't be used with a word beginning with a vowel. Option C is incorrect as 'The' is used as a definite article for a particular subject but neither English nor actor is unique. Option D is incorrect as 'One' doesn't go with the sense of the sentence. Because it states a number which means there is only one English film actor in the world and that's impractical. Hence Option B is correct as 'An' is used with a word having a vowel sound.
