答案：【解析】：
这是一道英语阅读理解题，主要考查学生对文章内容的理解和分析能力，以及对词汇和句子的掌握。题目给出了一个关于Nick、Randy和Jack之间打羽毛球的小故事，并通过几个问题来检验学生对故事内容的理解。
1. 第一题是细节理解题，需要找到第二段中表现Nick骄傲的句子。根据文章内容，“I am the best of the three of us.”这句话直接体现了Nick的骄傲自满，因此选择B。
2. 第二题也是细节理解题，需要找到Nick输掉比赛后的借口。根据文章内容，“I can win if I have a racket(球拍) as good as yours.”这句话表明Nick认为自己的球拍不如Jack的好，因此选择B。
3. 第三题是排序题，需要根据文章内容将事件按正确顺序排列。文章首先描述了Randy和Jack打羽毛球，然后Randy想休息，接着Nick和Jack打羽毛球，最后Nick输掉了比赛。因此正确顺序是③②④①，选择C。
4. 第四题是词义猜测题，需要根据上下文猜测“swap”的意思。根据文章内容，“Let's swap rackets to play again.”这句话表明Jack提议和Nick交换球拍再打一次，因此“swap”的意思是交换，选择B。
5. 第五题是主旨大意题，需要从文章中提炼出主要教训。文章通过Nick的故事告诉我们不要骄傲自满，因为总有人比我们更好。因此选择D，“There is always someone better than you.”
