試題分析:這篇短文講述的是鹽的歷史,人們從什么時候開始使用鹽這個事我們并不知道,但是我們知道在整個歷史上鹽已經(jīng)被用多種方法來使用了。

1.考查連詞及語境的理解。句意:關(guān)于人們從什么時候開始使用鹽這個事我們并不知道。when 什么時候;where 在哪里;what 什么;which哪一個。根據(jù)句意可知,這里是說不知道人們從什么時候開始使用鹽。故選A。

2.考查介詞及語境的理解。句意:但是我們知道貫穿整個歷史,鹽已經(jīng)被用多種方法來使用了。throughout 貫穿,遍及;thought做名詞是想法的意思;另外它還可以是think 的過去式,認(rèn)為,思考的意思;though連詞,盡管,雖然;although 與though 同義。throughout the history 是一個固定搭配,貫穿整個歷史,在這里表示歷史悠久。故選A。

3.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意:例如,在很多歷史書中記載:三千多年前的人們就開始吃咸魚了。A. say說,強(qiáng)調(diào)說的內(nèi)容;   B. reported  報道;C. recorded   記載,記錄;D. reading閱讀。這里是一個句型it is recorded that 據(jù)記載…,這里是根據(jù)一些歷史書籍中的記載,并且下文Books also record that 也暗示了我們答案。故選C。

4.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意:例如,在很多歷史書中記載:三千多年前的人們就開始吃咸魚了四個選項中都是動詞eat 的形式,意思是:吃。A. eat 是動詞的原形;B .ate      是eat 的過去式;C. eating是一個現(xiàn)在分詞的形式;D. have eaten是現(xiàn)在完成時的形式。根據(jù)句中three thousand years ago 可知,這句話說的是三千多年前的事情,應(yīng)該用一般過去時態(tài)。故選B。

5.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意:幾千年前在埃及,鹽被用來保存死人。A. used to   過去常常,后面跟動詞的原形;B. was used to被用來做…,后面跟動詞原形;C. was used        被使用,是一個被動語態(tài);D. used使用,是use 的過去式。根據(jù)句意可知,這里應(yīng)該表示鹽被用來做…,故選B。

6.考查介詞及語境的理解。句意:它可以使死尸不腐爛。A. off    離開;B. from從…;C. on        在…上面,或在具體某一天;D. out出去。這句話中keep …from…是一個固定句型,阻止…做某事。這里的意思是不讓死尸腐爛。故介詞應(yīng)該是from。

7.考查動詞及語境的理解。句意:在18世紀(jì),偷鹽的人被認(rèn)為是犯法的。A. think     認(rèn)為,思考;B. consider考慮,認(rèn)為;C. thoughtful有思想的,是一個形容詞;D. thought是think 的過去分詞。根據(jù)句意可知,這里表示的是一個被動語態(tài),即偷鹽被認(rèn)為是犯法的。故選D。

8.考查名詞及語境的理解。句意:在18世紀(jì),偷鹽的人被認(rèn)為是犯法的A. law法律;B. glass玻璃;C. computer電腦;D. time時間。break the law 是固定短語,觸犯法律。故選A。其他選項的意思與文意無關(guān)。

9.考查名詞及語境的理解。句意:如果一個人被抓住偷了鹽,那么他會被送進(jìn)監(jiān)獄。A. pool     池塘;B. hill小山; C. prison   監(jiān)獄;D. river河,河流。根據(jù)上文可知,在18世紀(jì)時偷鹽是犯法的,所以如果被抓住偷鹽了,應(yīng)該是被送進(jìn)監(jiān)獄的。下句話中put into prison也可以告訴我們答案。故選C。

10.考查連詞及語境的理解。句意:書中記載在那個世紀(jì)的英國有大約1萬人因為偷鹽被送進(jìn)了監(jiān)獄。A. because因為,是一個連詞,后面引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句;        B. because of    因為,后跟名詞或動詞的ing形式;C. by       通過…方式;D. as做介詞,是作為的意思。根據(jù)句意可知,這里是說因為偷鹽而進(jìn)監(jiān)獄,表示的是原因,并且空后跟的是一個動詞ing形式的短語。故選B。

11.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意:在1553年,如果一個人拿的鹽比他應(yīng)該分到的更多的話,他就被認(rèn)為是觸犯了法律,會受到嚴(yán)厲的懲罰。A. more 更多的,是比較級形式;B. less       更少的,也是一個比較級,原級是little;C. fewer更少的,是few的比較級;         D. most最多的,是一個最高級形式。根據(jù)句意和空后的than可知,這里應(yīng)該用比較級形式,且應(yīng)該是拿的鹽比應(yīng)分的更多會受到懲罰。故選A。

12.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意:在1553年,如果一個人拿的鹽比他應(yīng)該分到的更多的話,他就被認(rèn)為是觸犯了法律,會受到嚴(yán)厲的懲罰。A. serious形容詞,嚴(yán)肅的,嚴(yán)厲的;B. bad         形容詞,糟糕的;C. terrible形容詞,可怕的,糟糕的;D seriously副詞,嚴(yán)厲的。這里應(yīng)該用副詞形式來修飾動詞punished。故選D。

13.考查形容詞及語境的理解。句意:在國王的餐桌上,鹽是非常重要的。A. important 重要的; B. necessary         必要的;C. clever聰明的; D. cheerful歡呼的。根據(jù)這一段的內(nèi)容可知,鹽在國王的餐桌上是非常重要的,它離國王最近。尊貴的客人離它近一些,不重要的客人離它更遠(yuǎn)。所以這里是告訴我們鹽在那個時候是多么的重要。故選A。

14.考查介詞及語境的理解。句意:鹽總是被放在國王的面前。A. in the front of在…前部;        B behind在…后面;         C. in front of         在…前面;D. before在…之前,表示時間。根據(jù)上一句話和這一段的內(nèi)容可知,鹽在那時是很重要的,所以它應(yīng)該被放在國王的面前。故選C。

15.考查連詞及語境的理解。句意:重要的客人坐在鹽的旁邊,而不重要的客人則坐在遠(yuǎn)離它的位置上。A. when當(dāng)…時候;B. as當(dāng)…時候;      C. however 然而,是一個副詞,后面應(yīng)有逗號隔開;D. while在這里是然而的意思,表示對比。根據(jù)句意可知選D。

考點:歷史類短文。
