When Mr. David retired, he bought a small house in a village near the sea. He liked it and hoped to live a quiet life in it.
But to his great surprise, many tourists came to see his house in summer holidays, for it was the most interesting building in the village. From morning to night there were tourists outside the house. They kept looking into the rooms through the windows and many of them even went into Mr. David's garden. This was too much for Mr. David. He decided to drive the visitors away. So he put a notice on the window. The notice said: “If you want to satisfy your curiosity（好奇心）, came in and look round. Price: twenty dollars.” Mr. David was sure that the visitors would stop coming, but he was wrong. More and more visitors came and Mr. David had to spend every day showing them around his house. “I came here to retire, not to work as a guide,” he said angrily. In the end, he sold the house and moved away.

1、阅读下面短文。根据短文内容，做出正误判断。
Many people believe that the hump (驼峰) of a camel is full of water. They believe this is the reason that camels do not have to drink very often, but they are quite wrong. A camel's hump is not full of water. It is mostly fat. The camel's body can use the fat later when it is hungry, but it does not help the camel go for a long time without drinking. A camel can do this because it does not sweat very much.
When people - and most other animals - get hot, they sweat. Sweat is mostly water from the body. Therefore, when people sweat, they lose water and soon have to drink. If they do not drink water, they die. When a camel gets hot, it does not sweat very much, so it does not lose much of the water in its body. It does not need to drink very often.
There is very little water in the desert, so any animal that does not need much water is very useful for carrying people and things across the desert. Camels can travel a long way without stopping for food or water. This is why the camel is called “the Ship of the Desert”- it carries its food and water with it and it can go for a long time between towns. People still use camels in the deserts of North Africa and in many other places.

People are so busy these days that many people have no time to cook. This becomes a problem, because most families love home cooking! The food tastes good and warm, and a family meal brings everyone together. In some families, meals are often the only time everyone sees one another at the same time.
Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child's sweet tooth. She or he is sending a message. The message says,“I care about you enough to spend an hour making cookies that you will eat up in 15 minutes if I let you.”
There is also something about the smell of home cooking. The smell of home cooking pleases people of all ages. It makes most of us feel happy -- even if we are the ones doing the cooking!
1. Now fewer people cook because most of them dislike home cooking. 〇 True 〇 False
2. A parent spends an hour making cookies just to satisfy her or his child's sweet tooth. 〇 True 〇 False

time.

We have no idea about when men first began to use salt. We do know that it has been used in many different ways through the history.
For example: it is recorded in many history books that people who lived over three thousand years ago ate salted fish. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, salt was used to preserve (保存)the dead. In some periods of history, a person who stole salt was thought to have broken the law. Take the 18th century for an example; if a person was caught stealing salt, he would be thrown into prison. History also records that only in England about ten thousand people were put into prison during that century for stealing salt! But one hundred and fifty years before, in the year 1553, if a man took more than his share of salt, he would be thought to have broken the law and would be seriously punished. The offender's (违法者) ear was cut off.
Salt was an important item on the dinner table of a king. It was always placed in front of the king when he sat down to eat. Important guests at the king's table were seated near the salt. Less important guests were given seats farther away from it.
