They were there to visit their mother's old college roommate, who had moved to Japan to teach English. Then she fell in love with the country and married a Japanese."What's our plan for the afternoon?" asked Alex after lunch one day."Well, “ said Mr. Ito, "we have tickets for a 4:00 baseball game. ”“ I had no idea baseball was popular in Japan，” replied Alex.A few hours later, the Itos and the Godfreys were seated inside the stadium among a crowd of excited fans."Are those cheerleaders?" asked Emily. She was pointing to a group of men on the ball field who led the crowd in chants and cheers. Mrs. Ito nodded，“ I forget that Americans don't have cheerleaders for baseball games. That's the difference between American and Japanese baseball culture.““ Baseball isn't my cup of tea，but today's game promises to be a good one. The two teams are the best in Japan, “ Mr. Ito added.Once the game began, Emily and Alex found the game itself didn't seem much different at all from the American baseball games. They were surprised，though，to see people waving American flags from timeto time.Mr. Ito explained, “Japanese teams are each allowed to have three foreign players. When American players come up to bat，their fans show support by waving your country's flag."At the end of the game, Alex and Emily were tired, but their minds were racing with all they had seen in the game.“Did you have a good day, kids?" asked Mrs. Godfrey, turning to Alex and Emily.They nodded. “ After today, I have a feeling that American baseb all may never be quite as interesting again.

It has changed our lives greatly.In many ways, it makes life more convenient for us：we can send messages quickly through the Internet, cook meals in a few minutes in a microwave, and book train tickets online instead of walking to the station.However, in our increasingly technology-driven world, have we become addicted to technology?Not too long ago, many children enjoyed reading a good book in their spare time. Nowadays, teenagers are more likely to be seen playing video games or watching television. Some people even say they can't go without watching their favourite TV programme.Similarly, sending letters has become a thing of the past. It has been replaced by email, immediate messaging and other social media (媒体）.I th ink this is a huge shame；for me, there's nothing better than receivi ng a letter in the post. It shows someone has taken the time to sit down and write something；this is much more private than a conversation online. And for some people，especially the old, new ways of communication aren't so easy to use. I often send letters and postcards to my grandma to tell her about my life in France.The presence of social media has, in some ways, turned us into anti-social beings. Instead of meeting up with friends and seeing them face to face, we now spend a lot of lime communicating online. Although online communication has its advantages — especially，enabling us to keep in touch with loved ones in different countries, we shouldn't forget the value of real-life human interaction. It is, after all, in our nature to socialize with others！Admittedly (诚然)，I spend a lot of time using technology. I depend on the Internet and my laptop to plan lessons for my classes. I use wifi on my phone to send messages via apps such as Viber and Snapchal.Even so, when I'm on holiday it is nice to turn it all off and have a break. Taking a break from technology is setting yourself free.48. The phrase "addicted to" in Paragraph 1 probably means “ ___________ “.A. skillful atB. interested inC. dependent onD. disappointed at49. What does the writer think of sending letters?A. It wastes a lot of time and energy.B. It's something out-of-date and shameful.C. It's a better way to communicate with relatives.D. It's a more personal and caring way of communication.50. From Paragraph 4 we know that the writer thinks .A. social media makes people separated and lonelyB. it's important for people to communicate face to faceC. people have better skills in communication because of social mediaD. online communication has more advantages than real-life communication51. What's the writer's purpose of writing this passage?A. To direct people to spend free time properly.B. To remind people to make reasonable use of technology.C. To encourage people to take full advantage of social media.D. To advise people to communicate with each other more often.DParents do anything they can to give their kids the best education. According to a report published by the Sutton Trust, a third of “professional parents” with children aged between 5 and 16 have moved to an area, because they think it has good schools^Some go further: 6% of the 1 ,000 parents surveyed said they started to attend church (教堂) services to help their children get a place at a church school ; 3% said they used a relative's address to get children into a better school ; and 2% said they had bought a second home and used that address for a better school.It seems strange that parents, while paying close attention to school, seem often to forget a much cheaper way of improving their children's educational situation — a stable (稳定的）family. There are plenty of researches to back all this up: a recent study by the Childhood Wellbeing Research Centre found that children aged seven and older usually (lid more poorly in exams and behaved badly at school if their parents broke up. Another report by the Economic and Social Research Co uncil, found that a stable family life meant children were more likely to take in what was offered in the classroom. According to the Royal College of Psychiatrists, teenagers whose parents were fighting or separating might find it difficult to concentrate (集中注意力）at school.Of course, many marriages are progressing well even if there're unpleasant matters in life. I've been married for more than a quarter of century, and the one thing I'm sure of is that it's not a bed of roses. I've also got four children aged between 11 and 21; and while I'm truly thankful to the many teachers who have taught them, and the schools they've been pupils at, I've felt fairly certain as the years go by that a stable home is much more important than where their school sits in the local league table (排行榜).So paying a few hundred pounds for a family relationship course could b e a much better use of the family's money than spending thousands on moving houses. I can't help wondering whether the only sure winners from the fight to live by the best school gates are house sellers rather than the very children themove is designed to help.52. According to the Sutton Trust，what's the most common way for parents to send their children to a good school?A. Asking their relatives for help.B. Going to church every Sunday.C. Moving to a house in a certain area.D. Buying a second house near the school.53. What can we learn from the researches in Paragraph 3?A. Children above seven usually behaved badly at school.B. Going to good schools improved the children's behavior.C. Parents' relationship had an influence on their children's study.D. Parents usually fought for their children's poor performance at school.54. The writer agrees that ________ .A. a longer marriage means a stronger family relationshipB. the local league table of schools is important for parentsC. parents should have better communication with teachers and schoolsD. it's worthwhile to spend some money improving a family relationship55. What's the best title of the passage?A. More Money Can Help “ Buy" Better EducationB. Parents Should Provide the Best Start for Their ChildrenC. Moving Houses Gives Great Benefits to Children's EducationD. Parents Staying Together Happily Is the Best Way to Help Children四、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
