Mary took a great interest in television, so she was excited when she met a young man who worked at the TV station. She asked him a lot of questions and discovered that he had also worked for a film company. Then she asked him whether there were differences between film work and television work.

Why is the sea salty 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 the 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 were green with envy. 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 it! Please, no more!" His words didn't work. The mill kept grinding salt. 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 salty.
36.The passage is probably a(n) ________.
A. folk story B. instruction C. guidebook D. science report

Have you ever found it difficult to get up early on cold mornings We often feel tired and sleepy when we wake up. It really needs strong courage to get up in winter. Here are some tips for you to make "getting up on cold mornings" easy.
Get as much natural light as you can
Enough bright light will help you get up early, says Jennifer Martin, doctor from American University of Sleep Medicine. That s because light influences melatonin(褪黑激素), which plays an important role in sleep. As a result, when you wake up, taking a walk or enjoying coffee outside will be good. Some people prefer to use curtains or wear eye masks to create a dark sleeping environment, but that will be a bad idea if you want to get up early the next day.
Form the fixed early rising habit
There are two ways to help you get up early. First, you can make yourself get up at a fixed time. It must be difficult in the beginning, but after a few weeks, you will not feel hard. Martin recommends people can try another way. You can get up ten minutes earlier than usual on the first day. After a few days, you can get up another ten minutes earlier. Finally, you will get used to the new habit.
Go to bed early in the evening
A fixed bedtime is also important to make sure you re getting enough sleep. Most people should have at least seven hours of sleep. So you ll probably need to go to bed early if you want to change your habit. Research shows that we should make sure we are not in the bright light for at least an hour before we sleep. Bright light will influence our abilities to fall asleep. Listening to soft music or doing some reading may be helpful before you sleep.
Plan something to look forward to
To encourage you to get out of bed, Martin suggests treating yourself to something special you can enjoy. Go to buy your favourite coffee or pick up some delicious breakfast. Start a day with something nice, and you will find getting up early on cold mornings is not difficult.
