【解析】本文主要介紹了一個擅長表演京劇的外國青少年的故事。

【1】考查冠詞。star是可數(shù)名詞，且第一次在文章中出現(xiàn)，故用不定冠詞修飾，形容詞unlikely的讀音以元音音素開頭，故用an。

【2】考查非謂語動詞。ability to do sth.意為“做某事的能力”，為固定詞組搭配，故用不定式作后置定語。

【3】考查定語從句。who引導(dǎo)非限定性定語從句，在從句中作主語，修飾先行詞The teen。

【4】考查動詞時態(tài)。since意為“自從”時，引導(dǎo)的狀語從句中，從句用一般過去時，主句用現(xiàn)在完成時。

【5】考查代詞。根據(jù)語境mouth和主語he可知，此處應(yīng)用形容詞性物主代詞his修飾名詞mouth，在句子中作定語。

【6】考查非謂語動詞。know和句子謂語之間沒有連詞，故用非謂語動詞，且know和其邏輯主語form是動賓關(guān)系，故用過去分詞作后置定語。

【7】考查名詞。根據(jù)and可知，此處與名詞voices呼應(yīng)，故用名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式，即movements。

【8】考查形容詞。由空后的名詞cheers可知，此處應(yīng)用形容詞形式修飾名詞，standing意為“站著進(jìn)行的”，表示Tyler得到了（觀眾的）起立歡呼。

【9】考查介詞。此處as意為“作為”，后跟名詞、代詞或動名詞，與performed呼應(yīng)，表示扮演的角色，符合語境。

【10】考查副詞比較級。根據(jù)語境可知，此處表示“更多”的含義，故用副詞比較級more修飾動詞know。
