BCharles Dickens was born on February 7, 1812, the son of John and Elizabeth Dickens. John Dickens was a clerk in the Naval Pay Office. He had a poor head for finances, and finally found himself imprisoned for debt.When the family paid off the debt and his father was set free, the twelve-year-old Dickens, already hurt by the experience, was further wounded by his mother's insistence that he continued to work at Warren's Blacking Factory.His father, however, rescued him from that fate (命运), and between 1824 and 1827 Dickens was a day pupil at a school in London. At fifteen, he found employment as an office boy at a lawyer's, while he studied shorthand (速记法) at night. His work memories at the Blacking Factory entered his mind repeatedly all of his life — he spoke of it only to his wife and to his closest friend, John Forster — but the dark secret became a source of creative energy with the themes of alienation (离间) and betrayal which would appear mostly in David Copperfield and in Great Expectations.In 1829 he became a reporter at Doctor's Commons Courts, and in 1830 he met and fell in love with Maria Beadnell, the daughter of a banker. By 1832 he had becomea very successful reporter of Parliamentary debates in the House of Commons, and began work as a reporter for a newspaper.In 1833 his relationship with Maria Beadnell ended, probably because her parents did not think him a good match. In the same year his first published story appeared, and was followed, very shortly thereafter, by a number of other stories and sketches (短剧). In 1834, still a newspaper reporter, he adopted the soon-to-be-famous penname “Boz”. His poor father, who was the original of Mr Micawber in David Copperfield, was once again arrested for debt, and Charles was forced to come to his aid. Later in his life both of his parents and his brothers were frequently after him for money. 语篇解读：2012年2月7日是狄更斯诞辰200周年纪念日。
