In the past, it was as valuable as gold. Over the years, people discovered different ways to get salt. Some early people got salt from rocks. In other places, people got salt from the sea. They took sea water and put it in the sun. After a long time, the water dried up (耗尽). Then people could get salt. Today, people still get salt from the sea. But most salt comes from salt mines (矿) and salt wells (井). How do people get salt from salt mines? They dig deep into the ground for it. To get salt from salt wells, people put two pipes (管子) into the ground. Water is sent down through one of the pipes. And the water is mixed with the salt in salt wells. It makes salt water. Then the salt water is pushed up through the other pipe. Later, the salt is taken out of the salt water. People once worked hard to find and make salt. Now, people can buy it at any food store. 41. Some early people got salt from ________. A. flowers B. fruits C. trees D. rocks 42. Why did people put sea water in the sun? A. To get salt. B. To catch fish. C. To wash clothes. D. To water crops. 43. How do people get salt from salt mines? A. By mixing sand with gold. B. By digging deep into the ground. C. By putting oil on rocks. D. By throwing stones into the sea. 44. What is the right order of getting salt from salt wells? a. The salt is taken out of the salt water. b. Water is sent down through one of the pipes. c.

A. who discovered salt B. when we made salt C. where salt comes from D. how much salt we need 【答案】41. D 42. A 43. B 44. B 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了盐从哪里来的。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Some early people got salt from rocks.”可知，一些早期的人从岩石中得到盐。故选D。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They took sea water and put it in the sun. After a long time, the water dried up (耗尽). Then people could get salt”可知，是为了得到盐，故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They dig deep into the ground for it. To get salt from salt wells, people put two pipes (管子) into the ground.”可知，人们通过深挖地下来从盐矿中获取盐。故选B。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Water is sent down through one of the pipes. And the water is mixed with the salt in salt wells. It makes salt water. Then the salt water is pushed up through the other pipe. Later, the salt is taken out of the salt water.”水通过其中一根管子往下输送。在盐井里，水和盐混合。它产生盐水。然后盐水通过另一根管子被推上来。然后，把盐从盐水中取出。由此可知，正确的顺序是：水通过其中一根管子往下输送→盐水从另一根管子被推上来→从盐水中取出盐。故选B。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“Over the years, people discovered different ways to get salt”，“Today, people still get salt from the sea”以及全文可知，本文主要介绍了盐从哪里来的。故选C。 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题，共55分） 四、听力填表（共5小题，计5分） 录音中有一段短文，听录音两遍后，根据所听到的内容完成下面的表格（每空不多于三个词）。（录音播放前你有30秒钟的读题时间）【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Enjoy Reading Reasons for reading Reading brings me both pleasure and ____46____ .

I have a habit of taking notes while reading to remember important points, and sometimes I draw mind maps to understand complex ideas better. This helps me appreciate the books more and learn effectively. 五、动词填空（共10空，计10分） 用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空(必要时可加情态动词或助动词)。 My daughter Linda is kind.

I wish we ____59____ (love) each other forever!” It reminded me of all her love notes.

The color mixes gold with a bit of red and yellow. I like it because it gives me peace, energy and hope in the face of difficulty. When I was in the seventh grade, I took part in a speech competition. Although I made all my efforts (努力), I didn’t win. The failure hit me hard and made me feel painful. I had trouble falling asleep that night. It was 3:30 in the morning, and there was nothing but me and my unhappy heart. I got up and went upstairs to the roof (屋顶) top. I stayed there until a ray of light appeared in the sky. At first, it was orange and red, but after a short while, the sun awoke (唤醒) from its sleep and painted the sky with its gold colour. The sunlight shone on everything—trees, roofs and streets. 3 I felt its warmth flow (流动) through my body and into my heart. The rays of light woke up the gentle (温和的) morning wind and sent it moving across the field, touching my face and everything gently. It also woke up the early birds, which were singing happily. 4 There and then I realized that past is history, no matter how much we regret (遗憾) it. I thought to myself, “Maybe I can start once more, just like the dawn (黎明).” I went downstairs, feeling energetic (有活力) and hopeful.

Last year, my English grammar was weak. Because of this problem, my English was not good. So I went to ask my English teacher for help. With the help of my teacher and my own efforts, my English score has gradually improved. Now I’ve really learned how to learn lessons myself. In a word it is normal to have problems.

Over the years, people discovered different ways to get salt. Some early people got salt from rocks. In other places, people got salt from the sea. They took sea water and put it in the sun. After a long time, the water dried up (耗尽). Then people could get salt. Today, people still get salt from the sea. But most salt comes from salt mines (矿) and salt wells (井). How do people get salt from salt mines? They dig deep into the ground for it. To get salt from salt wells, people put two pipes (管子) into the ground. Water is sent down through one of the pipes. And the water is mixed with the salt in salt wells. It makes salt water. Then the salt water is pushed up through the other pipe. Later, the salt is taken out of the salt water. People once worked hard to find and make salt. Now, people can buy it at any food store. 41. Some early people got salt from ________. A. flowers B. fruits C. trees D. rocks 42.

Although I made all my efforts (努力), I didn’t win. The failure hit me hard and made me feel painful. I had trouble falling asleep that night. It was 3:30 in the morning, and there was nothing but me and my unhappy heart. I got up and went upstairs to the roof (屋顶) top. I stayed there until a ray of light appeared in the sky.

The sunlight shone on everything—trees, roofs and streets. 3 I felt its warmth flow (流动) through my body and into my heart. The rays of light woke up the gentle (温和的) morning wind and sent it moving across the field, touching my face and everything gently. It also woke up the early birds, which were singing happily. 4 There and then I realized that past is history, no matter how much we regret (遗憾) it.
