Partido vs. Juego

Why was "partido" (for "game") the correct usage in the first part of the last sentence, but then "juego" (for "game") was correct in the latter part of that same sentence?

Position of object pronoun "lo" - when is it *not* OK to attach it to an infinitive?Instead of "... lo habría podido utilizar" (in the fourth sentence), is it considered clumsy [or 'bad style'?] to write: "habría podido utilizarlo"?

different meanings for "seguro"Busca en la estantería. Seguramente estén abajo, no arriba.Look on the shelves. They are probably at the bottom, not at the top. Why is "seguramente" being translated here as "probably" instead of "surely" and where does the word "probablemente" fit into the discussion here?

Use of article

My question is about the quiz item: "El niño rubio con pantalones cortos es mi hermano."

Why was the article "los" not used before pantalones cortos? [e.g., El niño con los pantalones cortos es mi hermano.] An extension of my question here is that sometimes I notice a definite article is inserted while other times it is not. Therefore, what is the rule for using definite articles (los/las) in sentences of this type.

Saludos,

Pati E.
