解析：这篇文章介绍了 "一闪一闪亮晶晶……" 这首歌曲的曲调来源及曲调结构。
①考查副词。根据句子结构，可知空格处用于修饰被动语态were written，所以应用副词形式，故将所给词actual改为actually。结合句意：但实际上，最初它们是被写成了一首诗。故答案为：actually。
②考查固定搭配。根据空格前的ne f，以及空格后的可数名词复数cmpsers，可知此处应用形容词最高级形式，ne f+形容词最高级+名词复数，……是……中最……之一，固定搭配，故将所给词famus改为the mst famus。故答案为：the mst famus。
③考查名词。根据句子结构，可知空格处作主语，结合空格前的定冠词the，可知此处应用名词，故将所给词true，形容词，改为truth，事实，名词，结合句意：但事实是，这首歌的曲调来自法国儿童的民歌。故答案为：truth。
④考查不定冠词。根据句意：它是由一位不知名的音乐家创作的。可知空格处应填不定冠词，由于unknwn[ˌʌnˈnəʊn]是以元音音素开头，所以此处应填不定冠词an。故答案为：an。
⑤考查固定搭配。use sth. t d sth.，使用某物做某事，固定搭配，故将所给词create改为t create，结合句意：莫扎特用相同的曲调创作了新的音乐。故答案为：t create。
⑥考查可数名词复数。根据空格前的数字twelve，可知此处应用可数名词复数形式，故将所给词change改为changes。故答案为：changes。
⑦考查介词。根据空格前提到 "改变歌曲" ，以及空格后提到 "添加更多音符或以不同速度播放音符" ，可知这是改变歌曲的方式，故此处应填介词by，表示 "通过（方式）" 。故答案为：by。
⑧考查形容词性物主代词。根据句子结构，可知空格处应填形容词性物主代词，修饰空格后的名词place，故将所给词it改为its。故答案为：its。
⑨考查连词。根据空格后提到 "莫扎特没有为此写曲子" ，以及下文的 "他使这首曲子出名" ，可知这两句话之间是转折关系，故空格处应填althugh/thugh，虽然；注意句首单词首字母要大写。故答案为：Althugh/Thugh。
⑩考查主谓一致。根据句子结构，可知空格处所缺成分是动词，由于主语是the tune，第三人称单数，故将谓语动词becme改为becmes，结合句意：从那时起，这种音乐就广为人知，以至于被用于几首儿童歌曲和童谣中。故答案为：becmes。
