[05:13.60]4.We do not know when men first began to use salt.
[05:18.71]But we do know that it has been used in many different ways throughout history.
[05:23.64]Historical evidence shows, for example, those people who lived over 3000 years ago ate salted fish.
[05:31.49]Thousands of years ago in Egypt, salt was used to keep the dead from decaying.
[05:37.03]Stealing salt was considered a major crime during some periods of history.
[05:41.82]In the 18th century, for instance, if a person was caught stealing salt,
[05:47.04]he could be put in jail. History recorded that about ten thousand people were put in jail during that century for stealing salt.
[05:55.93]About 150 years before, in the year 1553, taking more than one's share of salt was punshable as a crime.
[06:05.72]The offender's ear was cut off. Salt was an important item on the table of a king.
[06:11.52]It was traditionally placed in front of the king when he sat down to eat.
[06:16.56]Important guests at the king's table were seated near the salt.
[06:20.63]Less important guests were seated further away from it.
[06:23.94]Q14.How was salt used in Egypt thousands of years ago?

[06:48.24]5.Today almost everyone is a consumer of caffeine. The drug is contained in many nonalcoholic drinks,
[06:56.70]including tea. A cup of tea or coffee contains between 100 and 150 mg of caffeine.
[07:05.34]Even a cup of cocoa, favored by some as a non-stimulating bedtime drink,
[07:10.99]can contain up to 59 mg and chocolate too can contain a little caffeine.
[07:17.40]It is also to be found in the popular cola drinks.
[07:21.40]Perhaps it's because we like caffeine so much that many still believe it might be in some way harmful.
[07:28.38]Reaction to caffeine certainly has some of the characteristics of a drug of addiction.
[07:33.85]For instance, people start to have severe headaches when they withdraw from it.
[07:39.00]Also tests show that rats prefer caffeinated water when given a choice between that and pure water.
[07:46.20]Q18.How much caffeine is contained in a cup of tea?
[07:51.89]Q19.Caffeine is found in all following drinks except?
