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。 |
