Answer 1

【答案】used；difference；the；ones；that/which；when；to；adding；It；simply
【解析】1句子有谓语，the English language 和use之间是被动关系，故用过去分词used。
2不定冠词用在名词前面，different是形容词，所以用名词difference。
3这里指“因为美国英语的广泛使用”，特指美国英语的使用，故填the。
4句意：很多英国人开始用一些美国的单词代替英国的一些单词。为避免重复，用ones代替“words”，所以填ones。
5that/which这是一个There be 句型，many other words 是先行词，指物，后面是一个定语从句，句子缺主语。句意：也有很多其他正在被替代的单词。故填that/which。
6这是一个There be 句型，times 是先行词“指时间”， 后面是一个定语从句，缺引导词，故填when。
7be similar to…与……相似,固定短语，故填to。
8enjoy doing sth享受做某事。故填adding。
9有趣的是很多说英国英语的人欣赏美国口音。根据句意此处应该用it作形式主语，后面的that从句作真正的主语，故填It。
10与此同时，很多说美国英语的人只是喜欢英国口音。副词修饰动词，simple是形容词，所以此处用副词simply
