　　Jim Carrey is one of the most recognized faces in the world—and certainly because of his rubbery face.

　　Born in Ontario，Canada on January 17th,1962 to a poor family，young Jim Carrey led a tough life，yet one good thing came out of it：He developed a great sense of humor to cope with life.At 15，he started performing at a Toronto comedy club.Later he moved to LA and soon came to the attention of Rodney and went on his tour.

　　Jim Carrey got his big break in 1990 the comedy show In Living Color.There Carrey perfected many characters，most widelyknown one“Fire Marshal Bill”，who always went up in flames.The show stopped when critics claimed that it encouraged kids to play with fire.This argument put Carrey's name in the headlines for the first time.

　　He broke into feature films in one single successful year,1994，making it the Year of the Funny Face.First there was Ace Ventura：Pet Detective，a surprise hit showing Carrey's wacky(古怪)style.Next came The Mask，tailormade for him and a hit with audiences.There was still Dumb and Dumber，which ended up on top of the box office.

　　Carrey has slowed down，but his films have continued to make waves if not quite of the previous quality.There was Batman Forever，then a sequel to Ace Ventura：When Nature Calls，which didn't quite retake the sparkle(光彩)of the earlier one.Next came Liar，Liar，a terrific success everywhere，putting him back on top.Then came The Truman Show，a film which proved Jim Carrey was more than just a funny face.Snubbed(冷落)by the Oscars，he was clearly considered golden by the fans.
