【解析】本文叙述了刘伟10岁的时候，在一次事故中失去了两个胳膊，但是他从来没有放弃他想成为钢琴家的梦想，他每天用脚来练习钢琴。

【1】句意：刘伟10岁的时候，在一次事故中失去了两个胳膊。根据时间状语at the age of 10可知，这里应该用一般过去时。故答案为：lost。

【2】句意：他从来没有放弃他想成为钢琴家的梦想。短语give up放弃。根据上下文这里叙述的是过去的一件事，所以这里应该用过去式。故答案为：gave 。

【3】句意：他从来没有放弃他想成为钢琴家的梦想。dream of doing sth梦想做某事。故答案为：becoming。

【4】句意：他不能找到一位老师来教他如何用脚来弹钢琴。根据find a teacher可知，这里指找到老师来教。故答案为：teach。
