【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。作者代表麦迪逊中学赢得了当地演讲比赛。作者回忆当时比赛时的情景。

【1】考查时态。句意：这是州际比赛。根据上文The big day had finally arrived. I had won the local speech contest(比赛)，representing Madison Middle School.可知此处指的是过去的事情，句子用一般过去时态，故选A。

【2】考查形容词性物主代词。句意：我在后台等着主持人宣布我的名字。修饰名词name用形容词性物主代词，结合句意可知答案为A。

【3】考查状语从句。A. As long as只要； B. even though即使； C. ever since从那时起。根据___3___I had practiced much，I was extremely nervous.可知，即使我练习很多，但是我非常紧张。此处是even though引导的让步状语从句，故选B。

【4】考查时态。根据My heart was thumping，my palms___4___，and my mouth was dry.可知，我的心怦怦地跳，我的手心出汗，我的嘴是干燥。句子用进行时态，故选C。

【5】考查固定搭配。固定搭配：want to do sth.“想做某事”，故选B。

【6】考查定语从句。此处Mr. Patrick是先行词，指人，在后面的非限制性定语从句中作主语，that不能引导非限制性定语从句，只能用who，故选A。

【7】考查固定词组。根据I was ready_____7_____this，and besides，I won first place in the____8____contests.可知，我准备好了，而且，在前面的比赛我赢得第一名。固定词组：be ready for“为------做准备”，故选C。

【8】考查句意理解。根据I was ready_____7_____this，and besides，I won first place in the____8____contests.可知，我准备好了，而且，在前面的比赛我赢得第一名。此处指以前的比赛，故选B。

【9】考查不定代词。A. either两者之一； B. both两个都；C. all全部，所有。根据Yet，when I pictured____9____eyes on me waiting for me to mess up，my heart was gradually sinking into my stomach.可知，然而，当我想象所有的目光在我身上等着我陷入困境，我的心逐渐平静下来。此处指“所有目光”，故选C。

【10】考查情态动词。A. needn’t 不必； B. can’t不可能； C. mightn’t可能不会。根据“You____10____back out now，”I told myself as Mr.Nichols，the host，announced my name and the title of my speech，“My Hero.”可知，当主持人Mr.Nichols宣布我的名字，我演讲的题目，“我的英雄”时，我告诉自己“你现在不能退出,”故选B。
