【解析】

本文为记叙文。作者叙述了上周举办的“庆祝越南”节目上，令我惊讶的是是新加坡国立大学华人社团管弦乐团在演出期间的表现。他们的表演赢得观众的热烈掌声。通过与他们的交谈，作者决定下学期有时间也要加入他们的音乐社团。

【1】考查动词的时态。句意：令我惊讶的是新加坡国立大学华人社团管弦乐团在演出期间的表现。根据时间状语“Last week”，可知空格处要用一般过去时。故填amazed。

【2】考查连词。句意：老实说，我没想到几乎都是越南人的主办方会邀请其他不同文化的艺术团体，还能同时欣赏来自不同文化的表演真是太棒了。分析句意可知前后两者是转折关系，故用转折连词but，故填but。

【3】考查固定搭配。句意：住在离家3000多公里的地方，真的很难得有机会听到中国传统表演。“have the opportunity to do...”为固定搭配，意为“有机会做某事”，故填to listen。

【4】考查非谓语作定语。句意：我也注意到有一些没有中国背景的人参加了活动。分析句子可知，空格处在句中作some people的后置定语。分析语境可知，此处的people与动词attend二者是主动关系，要用动词ing形式，故填attending。

【5】考查形容词作表语。句意：表演很精彩。分析语境可知，空格处在句中作表语，要用形容词，故填impressive。

【6】考查固定搭配及冠词。句意：观众在最后热烈鼓掌，我可以看出他们真的很喜欢（这个表演）。“give a big round of applause”为固定搭配，意为“热烈鼓掌”，故填a。

【7】考查名词。句意：演出结束后，我和一些音乐家进行了交谈。分析语境可知，此处是指与一些音乐家交谈，许多音乐家，要用复数，表示多个音乐家，故填musicians。

【8】考查连接词。句意：我问他们为什么这么做，他们告诉我这主要是因为他们的个人兴趣。根据后面的“他们告诉我主要是因为......”，可知，此处是指作者他们为什么这样做，此处为why引导的宾语从句。故填why。

【9】考查副词。句意：我问他们为什么决定这么做，他们告诉我主要是因为他们的个人兴趣。空格处在句中作状语，要用副词，mainly“主要地”修饰句子。故填mainly。

【10】考查谓语动词的时态。句意：如果下学期我有时间，我也会考虑加入他们。根据时间状语“next term”可知，空格处要用一般将来时，故填will consider。
