解析：

(1)	这里指最初打网球，不一定是比赛，本段第二句中game已为我们选择提供了依据。
(2)	tennez是法国人开始打网球时的命令，由此可知tennez为一个法语单词，不是短语，也不是句子，更不会是用法。
(3)	此处为现在分词短语作后置定语，指英国人“观看”法国人打网球。
(4)	空前面有感官动词watch，所以应选的答案不能带有to；空后面没有宾语，所以不能用介词with，因此答案为B项。
(5)	注意整句结构，此处应填谓语动词，指英国人把这项运动称作tennez。
(6)	指城市里的公园，后有just like today加以限制，其余选项均不符合实情。
(7)	指“像今天这样”，as用作介词时，意为“作为”，用在此处不妥。
(8)	比赛中相互对抗，故应用against。
(9)	后文中提到后来是为钱比赛，进而推知刚开始的时候，运动员不是为钱而是为争夺荣誉而比赛的。
(10)	指在比赛中弄虚作假来骗取钱财，后一句中the cheating指此行为。
(11)	根据上下文可知，为了防止利用网球骗钱，结果禁止了网球。
(12)	根据句意本身就可得知指的应是“原有”的网球场。
(13)	put sth．to a new use为固定短语，此处意思是“改作他用”。
(14)	这里表示“几乎消失”，故用almost。mostly的意思是“主要地”；at most的意思是“至多”，用在此处均不妥。
(15)	文中已有交代，网球源于法国和英国，当时美国人只有到欧洲才有可能见到网球场。
(16)	此处learned意为“了解到”，其他项不符合题意。
(17)	此处用过去完成时，表示更早时间发生的事，had是had liked的省略。
(18)	联系上下文可知，home指国内，本句意为“美国人一回国就建起了自己的网球场”。
(19)	注意本句构成短语的意思，此处take off的意思是become successful and popular(开始成功；普及)。其他意思不符。
(20)	和文章开头相呼应：网球成了世界上最受欢迎的运动之一。
