解析
试题分析:本文讲述了盐在古代的用途,以及在古代如果偷盐会受到怎样的惩罚,并且在古代通过盐也能看出尊卑来。
小题1:根据题干,本句的意思“我们不知道人类什么时候开始用盐”,“什么时候”是when。所以本题选A。
小题2:throughout是“贯穿”,though和although是“尽管”,thought是“思想”,根据题意,本句的意思是“但是我们知道在整个历史中盐有许多不同的用途。”所以本题选A。
小题3:根据题干,此处应该是“据记载”的意思,而“据记载”是It’s recorded。所以本题选C。
小题4:根据three thousands years ago可知,本句应是过去时,故用ate。所以本题选B。
小题5:根据题干,本句的意思是“盐被用来保存尸体。”“被用来做某事”是be used to do。所以本题选B。
小题6:keep……from是“阻止某人或某物做某事”,是固定用法。所以本题选B。
小题7:根据前面的was可知,后面应该用过去分词表示被动语态,只有thought。所以本题选D。
小题8:通过阅读下文可知,此处应该是违反法律。故用law。所以本题选A。
小题9:根据if a person was caught stealing salt可知,对待罪犯的方式是将他投入监狱。故用prison。所以本题选C。
小题10:根据题干,本句的意思是“一万多人因为偷盐被投入监狱。”“因为”是because或because of;根据stealing salt可知,应该用because of。所以本题选B。
小题11:根据题干,应该是带更多的盐会被惩罚。故用more。所以本题选A。
小题12:根据题干,本句的意思是“将被严重惩罚”,本空是修饰“惩罚”一词,故用副词。所以本题选D。
小题13:本句的意思是“过去盐在国王的餐桌上是很重要的。”故用important。所以本题选A。
小题14:根据题干,“它总是被放在国王的前面”。In the front of是在物体本身上的前部,in front of是“在物体前面”不附属在物体上,而before一般表示时间之前。故用in front of。所以本题选C。
小题15:根据前句important visitors sat near the salt和后句less important visitors可知,两者之间是转折的关系,故用while“而,却”。所以本题选D。
点评:阅读本文时,首先应该明白盐的重要性,才会理解为什么在古代对盐会有这样的规定。在完成本题是,应充分阅读文章,充分体会作者的意图。要结合生活中的常识,进行选词,并且应该注意区分一些词的用法和英语中的固定搭配等。

All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things as we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it.
There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them!
Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show. If we want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see!

A.you will have a strange feeling |
B.you will learn how to reach out your hand |

What is a spelling bee? 1 , but it is so popular in the Unite States. It is a game for children to spell English words.
The National Spelling Bee is the largest education contest(比赛) . It first began in 1925 in Washington.D. C. 2 . It is open to students in eighth grade or lower and not reaching their 15th birthday.
The contest is quite simple. When it"s your turn, the teacher says a word and you have to spell it. 3 , you stay in the game. If you spell it wrong, you"re out. What"s not so easy are the words the teachers ask you to spell.
Usually, children need to spend a lot of time learning vocabulary. They must remember thousands of English words and spell every word correctly in the contest. Only winners in regional (地区的) contest can enter the national contest. It’s many children’s dream to win the regional contest and go to Washington, D. C. The final winners will be called the Spelling Bee. 4 . Do you also think they are great?
A. If you spell it right B. Not too many Chinese students know it C. It is held in late May or early June of each year D. The children like the sports a lot E. It means they have worked hard |
History is also filled with feelings, with pain, joy, excitement, and fear.
Facts are set down in books, but what happens to feelings? How can you take the pain, for example, and write it into a history book? You can’t. But you can put it to music. Take the blues for example.
The blues started when black musicians in the South began to sing about their hard times, those times which made them feel blue. The early blues was the beginning of other musical styles, from jazz to rock and roll.
Music, you might say, is a record of feelings.
Of course, facts are important: the civil rights movement, the race for space, the Vietnam War. But the feelings behind these events – the pride of being black, the excitement of a rocket blast (点火起飞), the pain of a war – are also an important part of history.
小题1:In the passage, the word “blue” and the word “blues” are related to __________.
A.a feeling and a kind of music | B.a color |
C.a kind of music and a person | D.people and their feelings |
A.A history book | B.Music. |
C.History. | D.Hard times. |
A.what caused the Vietnam War |
B.the feelings behind some important events |
C.the relation between history and music |
D.why he wrote the article |
