9、ds of winning very unlikely是现在分词短语作结果状语。译文：当然，提供现金奖励的比赛会吸引成千上万的人参与，这就使得获胜的概率变得很小了。1B考查推理判断。This指的应是前面的“If you dont try something，how can you succeed？”，再结合第二段提到的人们参加比赛赢奖可知，此处指的是对于比赛来说，一个人必须先参与进去然后才有可能赢得比赛，故选B。2C考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“There are people who regularly take part in all sorts of competitions.its a

10、bout being a winner and being rewarded with a prize”可知，compers指的是那些频繁地参加比赛以获取奖品的人。故选C。3A考查词义猜测。根据画线词所在句“Of course competitions that offer money prizes attract entry from millions of people，making the odds of winning very unlikely”并结合常识可知，比赛的奖金是有限的，而参赛的人越多，获奖的概率就越小。由此可知，odds的意思是“概率，可能性”。故选A。4B考查推理判断。
