【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。主要讲了在比赛中哪些因素影响你的表现。

【1】根据下文的There are many physical factors（因素）that play a part in sports performance.可知，A选项中的factors和下文内容相呼应，且语意联系上下文，运动成绩受许多不同的因素影响。了解这些因素很重要。有许多身体因素在运动成绩中起作用。故选A。

【2】根据下文的The natural talent and strength of the players will make a difference.运动员们的天赋和力量将会发挥作用。可知F选项中的perform better和下文中的make a difference是顺承关系，且语意（如果一个人身体很好，那么他当然会表现得更好）承接下文， 故选F。

【3】根据上文的Also，it is important to get enough sleep before you are in a sports event.可知，同时,充足的睡眠是很重要的，在你进行体育赛事之前。如果你累了，你可能不会像往常一样表现。其中D选项中的are tired与上文get enough sleep相对应，且语意承接上文，故选D。

【4】根据空后的If you can figure out where to hit the ball in tennis that would confuse your competitor，for example，then this can help you score points. 例如，如果你能找出在网球击球时迷惑你的竞争对手，这可以帮助你得分。由此可知，在比赛中还有一些小方法能帮你取得胜利，故C项语意（此外，还有一些方法可以玩得更聪明，做得更好），故选C。

【5】G. There are many psychological factors that can play a part in how well you perform.

根据下文的If someone is very pessimistic about a game，for example，and is sure that he will lose，then he might increase his chances of doing so. 如果一个人对比赛很消极，确信他会失败，所以此处表示心理因素会影响你的表现，故G项能承接下文，其中pessimistic和psychological factors是相对应的，故选G。
