英语翻译
We do not know when man first began to use salt,but we do know that it has been used in many different ways throughout history.Historical evidence shows that people who lived over 3,000 years ago ate salted fish.Thousands of years ago in Egypt,salt was used to preserve the dead.
In Roman Empire,one of the most important roads was the one that carried salt from the salt mines to Rome.In the early days in the United States,salt was very scarce.So,the storekeeper then was very careful with his salt.As he poured out salt for a customer,he did not like anyone to walk across the floor of the store.The walking might shake the floor and could cause the salt to "settle"and as a result the storekeeper would have to add a little more salt to the amount he had already poured out.
答对

答案

我们无法得知人类何时第一次使用食盐,但纵观历史,我们得知人们以多种方式使用食盐.历史证据显示：生活在3千多年前的人们吃鱼时已经学会放盐.在几千年前的埃及,人们用盐来保存死者,以防腐烂.
在罗马帝国,最重要的道路之一就是用来把盐从盐矿运到罗马.美国历史初期,盐非常稀有.于是,卖盐的人对盐格外小心.当他给顾客倒盐时,他不希望任何人从店面的地板走过,因为走路声可能震动地板,进而使盐发生沉淀,这样他就不得再往出倒一些盐出来了.
