【解析】

试题分析：本文是一篇记叙文，叙述了机器人踢足球的有关介绍。

1.competition 考查名词。本句中名词短语My first football competition充当主语，动词compete是不能充当主语的。

2.our 考查代词。本句中形容词性物主代词our修饰名词team一起构成名词短语our team在句中做主语。

3.Personally 考查副词。在英语中，通常使用副词作状语，修饰动词、形容词、副词或整个句子。本句中分词personally修饰整个句子。

4.first 考查序数词。本句中序数词first修饰名词place。句意：我认为赢得第一名的那支队伍作了弊。

5.an 考查冠词。在英语中不定冠词a/an表示泛指。句意：我们决定创造一个更好的系统。因为even是以元音开始的单词，故使用an修饰even better system。

6.watching 考查非谓语动词。在while于watching之间省略了she is ,因为she和动词watch之间构成主动关系，并表示这两个动作同时进行。

7.arises 考查时态。在时间状语从句和条件状语从句中，通常使用一般现在时代替将来时。所以本句只有一般现在时的时态arise，而且主语是第三人称单数形式。

8.against 考查介词。介词against反对；顶着，逆着；倚靠；映衬；本句中against表示“反对，对抗”，动词短语play against…与…对抗。

9.have been programmed 考查时态。句义：因为我被设计好程序像人类一样活动，所以我想和一支人类的队伍进行比赛。根据句义可知设计程序像人类一样运动是已经发生的事情，所以使用现在完成时。

10.

【名师点睛】

介词against有多层含义，其用法如下：

against在英语中是介词，而不是动词，可表示多种含义，我们要准确理解和正确使用“against”，首先要注意与其经常搭配使用的词语及其含义，还要当心它在不同上下文中所具有的不同意思。现将其常见含义和用法归纳如下：

一. 表示“反对”“违背”( In hostile opposition or resistance to)，其反义词为 for。若表示“强烈反对”，一般与副词 strongly搭配。如：

1. Public opinion is strongly against his visit to the country. 舆论强烈反对他访问这个国家。

2. They are strongly against the idea. 他们强烈反对这个意见。

3. we should not go against nature.我们不应该违背大自然。

4. What have you done is against the law.你所做的事情是违法的。

5. Jane married Jack against her own will.简与杰克结婚，违背了自己的意愿。

表示“反对”时，经常同那些与之含义相关的动词连用 (如：fight, struggle, prot est, argue, guard等)。如：

6. The soldiers fought against the enemy bravely. 士兵们勇敢地打敌人。

7. He struggled against those who opposed his plan. 他同那些反对他的计划的人作斗争。

8. Rules and regulations help teams function well, but we should always guard against making teams too bureaucratic.规章制度有利于团队功能的发挥，但是我们经常应该防止使团队过于官僚制度化。

9.（2007福建，32） Although my opinion, the old professor didn’t come up with his own.

A. against B. on C. for D. in

解析：选A。句意：虽然这位老教授反对我的观点，但并没有提出他自己的观点。against意为反对(opposing or disagreeing with sb.)，for意为支持，拥护(in support of sb.\sth.)。

二. 表示位置，意为“靠着”、 “倚在”、“顶着”等(In contact with so as to rest or press on)。如：

1. Place the ladder against the wall.把梯子靠在墙上。

2. The teacher’s desk is against the wall. 老师的办公桌靠墙放着。

3. He stood leaning against the tree. 他站着斜靠在墙上。

4. Put your bicycle against the tree. 把你的自行车靠在树上。

5. He stood with his back against the door.他背靠着门站着。

三. 表示“撞击”、“碰着”之意(So as to come into forcible contact with)。如：

1. The waves dashed against the shore.波涛撞击海岸。

2. The rain was beating the windows. 雨点拍打着窗户。

3. Tom hit his head against a tree in the dark.黑暗中汤姆的头撞在一棵树上。
