1 to single out: This is correct. The expression 'to single (somebody, something) out' means 'to select from a group' or 'to isolate'. Example: 'She was singled out for special treatment by her teacher'. We need the infinitive form of the verb here, because when the verb 'to try' is followed by a second verb, this must be in the infinitive (with 'to'). Example: 'I will try to arrive on time'. This is the same usage as in the conversation, when Bruno says 'It would be unfair to single out just one'.
2 carried on: This is correct. The expression 'to carry on (doing something)' means 'to continue'. Example: 'If you carry on crying, I will have to leave'. We need the simple past form of the verb here, to describe a completed action in the past (which happened 'yesterday'). Note that the term 'to carry on' is followed by a verb ending in '-ing'. As we hear in the conversation, the term 'to carry on' can also be used alone, without a second verb: 'I'd like to carry on, if you don't mind'. Note that the verb 'to carry' is irregular: carry/carried/carried.
3 catch on: This is correct. The expression 'to catch on' means 'to become popular'. Example: 'Recycling has really caught on in recent years'. In this example, the future tense is used, formed by 'will' + infinitive (without 'to'). Note that the verb 'to catch' is irregular: catch/caught/caught.
