1.A考查连词及语境理解。句意：直到比赛都快开始了，他们才来。本句中用的是not … until 句型，“直到……才”。B在……之后；C 但是；D 当……时候。根据句意选A。

2.C考查形容词比较级及语境理解。句意：他们看起来比我们预料的还要糟糕。A 更强壮；B 更年轻；D 更少。由下文作者对这支队伍的描述可知，作者以为这支队伍很糟糕。故选C。

3.D考查动词及语境理解。句意：我们感觉和这样的球队打球我们根本不需要练习。根据上文可知作者并没有把对手放在眼里，觉得这样的队伍很烂，很容易就能打败他们。get 得到；try 试着；use 使用。根据句意选D。

4.D考查副词与语境理解。句意：时间如此晚了以至于他们没有时间来热身。A足够，后跟名词；B如此；C.太。 根据句意及语境空后是形容词late，所以此题是考查so...that结构，故选D。

7.A考查动词及语境的理解。句意：但是莫名其妙地对方队员抓住了球，很快且漂亮的将球投进了我们的篮筐，得了2分。caught 原形为catch ，抓住。change 改变；held 原形 hold 拿着，举行；stop 停止。根据句意可知选A。

8.B考查代词与语境理解。句意：一会儿他们又得了另一个两分。A. Other其他的；B. Another另一个；C. the other其余的；D. Others其他的。根据句意及语境此题应选B。
