American English has grown up with the country. It began to diverge from British English during its colonial beginnings and【S3】______regional differences and ethnic flavor during the settlement of the continent.

解析
这里需要一个动词过去式与began并列,其宾语是两个名词regional differences 和 ethnic flavor。这句话意思是“美式英语在最初殖民地时期就开始与英式英语产生差别,并获得自己的地域和民族特色,”只有 acquired与regional difference 和 ethnic flavor搭配最合适。
