Multiple Choice

Read the paragraph below and answer the questions that follow.

I'd much rather stay at home and watch ball games on television than go to the ball park for many reasons. 2 First, it's cheaper to watch a game at home 3I don't have to spend fifteen dollars for a ticket and another ten dollars for a parking space 4If I want some refreshments, I can have what's ready in the refrigerator instead if shelling out another six dollars for a limp, lukewarm hot dog and a watery Coke. 5Also, it's more comfortable at home. I avoid a bumper to bumper drive to the ballpark and a pushy crowd who want to go through the same gate I do 6I can lie quietly on my living room sofa instead of sitting on a hard stadium seat with noisy people all around me 7Most of all, watching a game on
television is more informative 8Not only do I see all the plays that I might miss from my fifteen dollar seat, but I see some of them two or three times in instant replay 9In addition, I get each play explained to me in glorious detail. 10If I were at the ballpark, I wouldn't know that pitch our third baseman just hit was a high and inside slider or that his grand-slam home run was a record setting seventh in his career. 11The other fans can spend their money; put up with the traffic, crowds, and hard seats; and guess at the plays. 12I'll take my baseball lying down - at home.
