【解析】短文以美國著名拳擊手吉內·滕尼的話“運動應被視為一種心靈的禮物”開篇，介紹了作者所在的學校舉辦體育運動活動月的情況。作者的班級雖然經歷了第一場籃球比賽的失利，但并不氣餒，勇敢地去面對下面的比賽，并獲取了接下來排球比賽的勝利，也提高了自信心。

【1】句意：運動應被視為心靈的禮物。be regarded as“被視作，被看作”的意思。結合句意可知，答案為regarded。

【2】句意：在我們學校運動活動月是一個傳統的體育活動。形容詞修飾名詞，結合句意可知，答案為traditional 。

【3】句意：我們的對手輕而易舉地擊敗了我們。此句缺少謂語動詞，結合上下句可知，時態(tài)為一般過去時態(tài)，根據前面的句子“So in the basketball game, we lost 32 – 0”可知，答案為beat。

【4】句意：但是我們彼此歡呼加油，因為我們還在進行排球比賽。cheer up (使）振作起來，結合上下語境可知，雖然經歷了第一場籃球比賽的失利，但是我們在接下來其它項目的比賽中并不灰心，故答案為cheered。

【5】句意：自從我們輸掉籃球比賽后，我們的排球選手們原認為他們會很容易取勝。此句缺少連詞，故答案為Since。

【6】句意：我們的排球選手們原認為他們會很容易取勝，但是我們打敗了他們。副詞修飾動詞，結合句意，答案為easily。

【7】句意：我們在第二輪比賽中也贏了。round為名詞單數形式，且前面有定冠詞the，故答案填序數詞second。

【8】句意：我認為體育精神是我們成功的關鍵。形容詞性物主代詞后跟名詞，結合句意可知，答案為our。

【9】句意：就像美國國會議員John Bingham所說的。此句中said缺少賓語，疑問代詞what可以充當said的賓語，表示某人所說的話，故答案為what。

【10】句意：奇跡是我有勇氣開始。此句缺少名詞。上文中曾提到作者的班級雖然經歷了第一場籃球比賽的失利，但并不氣餒，勇敢地去面對下面的比賽，故答案為courage。
