About one hundred and fifty years ago，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 ear was cut off.

答案：在历史上一些时期，偷了盐的人被认为是犯了法。以十八世纪为例，如果一个人被抓住偷盐的话，他将会被关进监狱。历史上还记载，仅在英国，18世纪就大约有一万人因偷盐被关进了监狱。大约一百五十年钱，在1553年，如果一个人拿了多于他份额的盐，他就会被认为是违犯了法律，而且将会受到严惩。罪犯的一只耳朵会被割掉。

答案：Fast Food

Fast food is becoming more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers.

Today,it's certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents the fast pace of modern society as powerfully as fast food.

There are several reasons for its popularity. First,it is very convenient and saves a lot of time. The trends of modern society seem to all point to one ultimate goal--saving time,and fast food well serves this purpose. You just go into a fast food restaurant, order your food, and your food is ready in no time. You can either eat it there or take it away. Second,its popularity is also attributed to the clean and comfortable environment of fast food restau-rants, the excellent service, and the guaranteed quality of food.

However,in terms of nutrition, fast food is far from satisfactory. It usually does not compose a balanced diet and is low in nutritional value. Thus , doctors suggest that people,especially children ,eat fast food as little as possible. Although cooking at home is time-con-suming and the following washing-up tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body likes and needs. Fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and turn to it once in a while.
