【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍Monkees乐队以及它的组建经过和发展情况。

【1】考查介词。句意：许多人都梦想成为一名歌手。固定词组：dream of/about sth./doing sth.“梦想着某事或做某事”。故填of/about。

【2】考查表语从句。句意：许多人组建乐队的原因是他们喜欢创作和演奏自己的音乐。本句为表语从句，从句句意和句子结构完整，所以用连接词that。故填that。

【3】考查动名词作主语。句意：练习他们的音乐是成名的第一步。句子缺少主语，这里是动名词作主语。故填Practicing。

【4】考查名词复数。句意：有时他们可能会在街上给路人表演，后来他们可能会在酒吧或俱乐部表演。此处指“路人”，所以用名词复数形式，passer-by“过路人”，其复数形式是passers-by。故填passers-by。

【5】考查副词。句意：然而，Monkees以一种不同的方式开始。该句与上句构成转折关系，故填However。

【6】考查介词。句意：它们最初是一个电视节目。介词as“作为”，此处表示“作为”一个电视节目。故填as。

【7】考查不定冠词。句意：电视节目组在报纸上登一则广告要找四个音乐家，但他们只能找到一个。名词advertisement以元音音素开头，表示“一则广告”用an。故填an。

【8】考查固定搭配。句意：演员们唱得不好，他们就假装唱歌。固定搭配：pretend to do sth.“假装做某事”。故填to sing。

【9】考查副词。句意：不幸的是，乐队在1970年解散，但在80年代中期又重新组合。此处是副词修饰整个句子，故填Unluckily。

【10】考查定语从句。句意：他们在1996年制作了一张新唱片，用这张唱片来庆祝他们作为一个真正的乐队的过去。此处record是先行词，在定语从句中作介词with的宾语，介词后面指人用whom，指物用which。故填which。

1. reason （1）the reason for sth. /doing sth.为某事或做某事的理由。the reason for his being late他迟到的理由

（2）reason理由（名词），在句中做主语，后面的表语从句用that引导。The reason was that he had little education.理由是他受教育少。

2. reasonable合情合理的（形容词），连系动词后面作表语。
