【解析】

试题分析：本文介绍了谚语“he who laughs last laughs the hardest.笑到最后才笑得最好”，并通过Zac Efron的的故事进行例证说明。

1. 根据横线后句Because he was always the smallest in his class and was laughed at because he had a big space between his teeth.可知因为门牙缝隙大，他经常被同学嘲笑。这与G项“As a young boy, Efron was picked on by his classmates.”语义一致。

2. 根据横线全局he rebounded the ball and passed it to the wrong team!他抢到了篮板球，但是把球传给了对手，导致球队输掉比赛。故F项“They scored and his team lost the game.”符合上下文串联。

3. 根据横线后句Now at 21,Efron is one of People Magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People, graces(荣登)the cover of Entertainment Weekly Hollywood’s most influential magazine,可知现在的Efron与以前完全不一样，成为了一个名人。故B项“But history, as they say, is a thing of the past.历史是过去的事情”符合本段的上下文串联。

4.E 根据横线后句“According to Efron,“he would flip out(发疯) if he got a B and not an A in school, and that he was a class clown.”可知如果他某一门学科得了B，没有得到A，他就会疯狂第学习。这说明他非常重视学习。故E项符合上下文串联。

5. 本段主要叙述Efron兴趣爱好很广泛，不仅仅学习成绩很好，他还擅长很多其他的东西。根据横线前句It was his father who encouraged him to act.提到他的父亲鼓励他去参加表演，那么本句应该是与表演相关的内容，故C项“He took part in school performances and acted in a local theater.”与上下文一致。
