【解析】

薯片是很多孩子都非常喜歡的一種零食，但你知道嗎，薯片是被無意中發(fā)明出來的。這是怎么回事呢？短文中給我們介紹了George是怎樣發(fā)明出薯片的。

【1】句意：大多數(shù)孩子喜歡薯片，但很少有人知道薯片是由George Crum在1853年由于差錯而發(fā)明的。

根據(jù)下文的敘述可知，薯片是George Crum無意中發(fā)明出的。這里考查短語by mistake，意為“由于疏忽所致，無意地”。故答案為mistake。

【2】句意：當土豆端上來的時候，他說土豆切得太厚不能吃。

空后thick是“厚的”，形容詞，該空應選擇副詞，結合句意可知應選too，意為“太”，用于句型too+形容詞+to do sth.“太……以至于不能……”。故答案為too。

【3】句意：George很生氣，所以他把土豆切得很薄，煮了很長時間，直到變成了薯片。

空后 “they were crisps”是一個句子，該空填連詞。until“直到……時候”，引導時間狀語從句，符合句意。故答案為until。

【4】句意：他在上面放了雙倍的鹽，所以真的很咸。

根據(jù)句意 “so they were really salty.”可知，George放了很多鹽，因此選擇double“加倍”，是一個動詞。短文使用的是一般過去時態(tài)，這里應填過去式。故答案為doubled。

【5】句意：他以為顧客會討厭它們，然而，顧客如此喜歡它們以至于他要了更多。

根據(jù)句意 “the customer loved them so much”可知，顧客非常的喜歡，所以要了更多的炸土豆片。many“許多”，這里暗含有比較的意思，意為“更多”，應變成比較級形式more。故答案為more。
