【解析】

本题考查翻译，注意按括号内的要求翻译。

【1】考查固定短语和时态。be optimistic about表示“对……持乐观态度”，陈述的是客观事实，应该用一般现在时，故翻译为：I am optimistic about the result of the game /match.

【2】考查固定短语非谓语动词。think of...as表示“把……看作”，of后接动名词作宾语，陈述的是客观事实，用一般现在时，故翻译为：Many people think of being late as a small problem, but in fact it’s not./it can have serious consequences.

【3】考查形式宾语。根据句意可知本句使用“make it +adj+to do”句式，用it做形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的不定式，陈述的是客观事实，应该用一般现在时，故翻译为：Driverless technology solves people's puzzle and makes it possible to make a phone call /talk on the phone while driving.

【4】考查定语从句和表语从句。根据句意可知本句使用定语从句和表语从句，先行词指物，由最高级修饰，关系代词用that，表语从句成分完整，用that仅起连接作用，无实义，陈述的是客观事实，用一般现在时，故翻译为：The most horrible/terrible/ dreadful/ fearful/ frightening/frightful thing that can happen in your life is not that you achieved/accomplished nothing even though you tried, but that you do nothing at all/give up and tell yourself it is precious to be just ordinary.
