Why is the sea salt Long before we discovered scientific ways of thinking about it, we explained it in a story. Even though the answer isn’t scientific, it holds some other truth in it --especially about the human heart.
Long ago, a poor old couple lived on the coast. One day, an old storyteller came to their village. The old couple gave him a meal. In return, he gave them a coffee mill（磨粉机）and said ,“Say, ‘Mill, please grind（磨粉）’,”and it’ll make whatever you want, to stop it, say‘Mill, please cease（停止）grinding’.”
Soon the old couple had a much better life. They’d been happy people, and they didn’t need much more. But the young couple next door were never satisfied. When they saw the old couple wearing good clothes and buying good food, they burnt with envy（羡慕）. So one day, the young husband went to the old couple’s house secretly and heard,“Mill, please grind hot chocolate!”He was surprised to see it coming out.
Then the young couple stole the mill from the old couple. With it, they rode a horse and set off down the coast, where no one would know them. Along the way, the husband showed proudly and asked,“What do you want it to make ”“Oh, I don’t know. Why not salt ”the wife said.“Mill, please grind salt!”he said“. It works!”the wife shouted. But then they noticed the salt went everywhere. “Make it stop,”the wife said. But the husband didn’t know how.“Mill, please stop grinding! Please, no more!”His words didn’t work. The mill kept grinding. Finally, the young husband threw the mill into the sea as far as he could.
And there it’s been, for hundreds of years, endlessly grinding salt. That’s why the sea is salt.

Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber. He has climbed many high mountains in the world. Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure (探险) in South America, covering 7,800 miles. He was even named adventurer of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2018.
Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn't feel fulfilled. He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains Am I doing something helpful How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world ”
Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples(样本) from places far away to do research. But scientists can't get there themselves as such places are hard to reach - only the bravest adventurers can make it. Jerry thought he could do something to help. He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for scientists. By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life on Mount Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped scientists learn how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions.
For Jerry, this kind of adventure is most satisfying, “Such adventures have made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn’t important for me. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing mountains. There is still much more we can do.” Jerry said to a newspaper.
31.What is Paragraph 1 mainly about
A.Jerry’s friends. B.Jerry’s achievements. C.High mountains. D.A geography magazine.

35.Which can be the best title for the passage
A.Dangerous Mountain Climbing B.Important Scientific Discoveries

China will have 75 percent of its wild animals on land under the national key protection system by 2025, the National Forestry and Grassland Administration（国家林业和草原局）said. Its announcement took place on Sunday, which happened to be the International Day for Biological Diversity（多样性）.
The administration said that part of China’s achievements in protecting wild animals lie in setting wild animals into nature reserves（保护区）after human breeding（繁殖）. It said that nine milu deer（麋鹿）recently came into the world in the Daqingshan National Nature Reserve in Inner Mongolia. They are babies of the milu deer, or Pere David’s deer, who were set into the wild in September following human breeding in Beijing and Jiangsu province.
According to the administration, human breeding has helped to increase the population of some animal kinds that had before disappeared in the wild, such as milu deer and Przewalski’s horses. There are now around 10,000 milu deer and around 700 Przewalski’s horses. As for other wild populations, the giant panda population has increased from 1,114 in the 1980s to 1,864. The number of wild Asian elephants has increased from about 180 to 300 over the same period.
The administration plans to improve the protection of wild animals--including giant pandas, Siberian tigers, Asian elephants, and snow leopards.
At the same time, the government has made more efforts to punish unlawful trading in wildlife, which also helps with the increase of wild animals.
36. How many kinds of wild animals are mentioned in the passage
A. 5. B. 6. C. 7. D. 8.
37. What was the population of wild Asian elephants in the 1980s
A. About 120. B. About 180. C. About 700. D. About 1,114.
38. What do we know about milu deer from the passage
A. Milu deer once disappeared in the wild.
B. Nine milu deer were set into the wild in September.
C. 75 percent of milu deer are being protected by the nation.
D. Human breeding plays the biggest part in their population increase.
39. According to the passage, what has China done to protect wild animals
A. Planting more trees. B. Controlling human breeding.
