答案： 1.A 根据空前的“big game”和下文的“this championship game”可知，这是一场冠军赛，参加比赛的男孩们都很紧张、激动。故选 A项。
2.B Andy 的棒球队成功进入了这场冠军赛，震惊了其他更好的队伍。故可推测作者儿子 Andy 的棒球队人员一年来都在努力奋斗。故选 B项。
3.A 根据下文中的“the other team’s slugger (强击手)，a big kid，was like a snake，dangerous”可知，气氛是令人激动的(electric)，因为对方的强击手是个高大的孩子，像蛇一样，很危险。故选 A项。
4.D 由上文可知，这是一场冠军赛，所以此处指另一支球队的强击手是个高大的孩子，就像一条蛇，很危险，随时准备进攻。strike 意为“突击，攻击”。故选 D项。
5.C 空前谈到作者很紧张地看着儿子 Andy，但是看到 Andy 直直地盯着夜空看，作者觉得很吃惊。故选 C项。
6.D Andy 在赛场上却直直地盯着夜空看，很明显他当时没有专注于这次比赛。下文中的“he wouldn’t even know the ball was coming”也是提示。故选 D项。
7.C 根据上文可知儿子 Andy 当时注意力没有在球赛上，故此处指作者自言自语道:“快点，Andy，打起精神。”wake up“活跃起来，清醒点”。故选 C项。
8.D 虽然 Andy 的注意力没在球赛上，但这个时候另一队的高大的孩子犯了一个错误。Andy 和作者幸免于难，Andy 的球队仍然领先一分。spare 意为“饶恕，赦免，放过，使逃脱”，符合语境。故选 D项。
9.B 根据常识可知，是在比赛休息期间，Andy 才能跑到作者身边。break“间歇，休息”。故选 B项。
10.A 上文提到比赛的时候，Andy 直直地盯着夜空看，没有专注于这次比赛，所以此处指作者生气了，想责备他。故选 A项。
11.C 根据上文中的“Did you see that shooting star?”以及空前的“Andy’s eyes were glowing (喜形于色)”可知，此处指 Andy 喜形于色，很兴奋。故选 C项。
12.A 根据作者所说的“Well, one inning (局) to go. Hit a home run (本垒打)!”可知，作者说还有一局要打，故 Andy 应是跑回到队员身边。故选 A项。
13.D 上文讲 Andy 直直地盯着夜空看，结合空后的“the wonder and beauty in life”(生活中的奇迹和美)和四个选项可知，appreciate“欣赏”与之搭配。故选 D项。
14.B 你可能会惊讶于在你最意想不到的时候所能发现的美丽。least expect“最意想不到”。故选 B项。
15.C 根据语境尤其是上文的“Did you see that shooting star?”可知，作者真的希望自己也看到(see)了流星。故选 C项。
