A、squared
B、sponged
C、squandered
D、sponsored
【正确答案】：C
【名师解析】:选项C "squandered" 是正确的答案。这个词意味着浪费或滥用了机会或资源。在这个句子中，"the home team squandered a number of chances in the first half" 表示主场队伍在上半场浪费了多次机会。其他选项的含义与句子的语境不符："squared" 通常指使某物成为正方形或解决某事，"sponged" 意味着利用或依赖他人，而 "sponsored" 表示赞助或支持。因此，选项C "squandered" 最适合填入空白处，表达队伍未能利用好机会的意思。
