properly, imagine about it. A would not make experience, because one element is not any extra major than the different; a minimum of, it would not say Sally does so and so cuz this is extra major. C would not make experience, there is not any reason and outcome..... they maintain emphasizing a formula, or habitual. D also doens't make experience, they don't look to be comparing her to every person, the entire paragraph is what sally Does. hence, B = TIME.... 6:30Am, blah blah, 23 mintue,s blah blah 6:30 pm dinner, 7:00 television... so the answer is TIME.

c, gentle, being the opposite of wild or frisky, though i guess you could think d. The paragraph implies that docile must be the opposite of wild and frisky
