解析：本文介绍美国的自行车公交车很受大家的喜爱。
①句意:如果你看到一群孩子在城市街道上骑自行车，还有一个成年人和他们一起骑自行车，这就是自行车公交车。根据“als n a bike”可知，这个成人和孩子一起在车上，应用介词with。故填with。
②句意:这不是一辆真正的公共汽车，而是一群乘客在一起做公共汽车的工作。空格前后句意出现转折，所以用but连接两个句子。故填but。
③句意:以下面的自行车公交车作一个例子。此处泛指“一个例子”，且example是以元音音素开头，应用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。
④句意:他为当地的学校组织了一辆自行车公交车。此句描述的是事实，所以是一般现在时，由于主语“He”是第三人称单数，所以动词用三单形式rganizes。故填rganizes。
⑤句意:我们想让孩子们享受去学校。根据want sb. t d sth.“想要某人做某事”，可知是t enjy。故填t enjy。
⑥句意:他们可以和他们的父母，兄弟或姐妹一起骑车。横线上应是形容词性物主代词修饰名词parents，所以将they变为their。故填their。
⑦句意:自行车公交车的图片和视频在网上发布时引起了很多关注。横线前的“they”代指“The pictures and vides”，与pst之间是被动关系，事件发生在过去，所以是一般过去时的被动语态。主语是复数，所以是were psted。故填were psted。

⑨句意:“多么简单的想法啊!开始时多么容易啊!”一个微博的使用者说。根据“said ne Weib...”及所给词“use”可知，是使用者说的话，ne后接单数名词user“使用者”。故填user。
