答案： 1. 这里表示朋友汤姆建议“我”尝试跑步，recommend有“建议”的意思，且recommend sb. do sth.是固定用法，根据语境用一般过去时，所以填recommended。
2. 结合前文朋友鼓励“我”能赢，这里说“我没骗你”，cheat是“欺骗”，前面有am not，用现在分词构成现在进行时，填cheating。
3. 每天下午放学后，“我”匆忙去操场练习，hurry to是“匆忙去”，根据时间状语Every afternoon after school可知用一般过去时，填hurried。

5. 后面说这样“我”能知道自己的进步，可知是记录每天跑100米所用的时间，record是“记录”，用一般过去时，填recorded。
6. 比赛开始时，“我”很兴奋，excite的形容词有exciting和excited，这里形容人用excited，填excited。
7. expect to do sth.是“期望做某事”，这里说“我”没想到能打败任何人，defeat是“打败”，填to defeat。
8. notice sb. doing sth.是“注意到某人正在做某事”，这里说“我”注意到汤姆正朝“我”微笑，smile是“微笑”，填smiling。

二、按要求回答问题。
Xian Xinghai is a very famous composer(作曲家) in China. He had a great talent for music. He wrote many great pieces of music in his short life, about 300 songs and an opera.
Xian was born(出生) in Macao in 1905. His father died before Xian was born, and he had to move from place to place with his mother when he was a child.
Xian showed musical talent at a very young age, and he began to play the violin when he was 20 years old. At first, his violin was so cheap and of such poor quality (质量) that he could not play it well. His friends laughed at him. However, Xian did not give up practicing. He soon stood out among many students. In 1931, he became the first Chinese student to study in a special music school in Paris. Before he left, Xian became the school's best student and won several prizes for his talent.
In 1935, he went back to China and wrote many great pieces to encourage people to fight against the Japanese army. Later, he went to Yan'an to teach music at a college. Although there were no pianos in Yan'an at that time, Xian still wrote some of his most important music there, including The Yellow River Cantata, one of his most famous works.
In May 1940, Xian Xinghai went to the Soviet Union(苏联) to write music for movies. Life there was so hard that he got very sick. Later he died of a lung disease(肺病) on October 30, 1945, aged only 40. Xian Xinghai is such a great man, and his music will live on in our hearts forever.

4. 文章按照时间顺序，依次介绍了冼星海的出生（1905年）、早年经历、学习音乐、回国创作、去延安教学、前往苏联以及去世（1945年）等人生阶段。
