1

The subject of this sentence is singular so that "is" is used after "and" which indicate the both verbs (feature and is) have a same subject. Therefore, "feature" in the sentence should be "features".

2
moved to->had moved to
I feel this difficult, but I think "moved to" should be "had moved". It is because they moved from part of the British Empire. The time frame of those events, being part of the British Empire and moving to Britain, seems to be same.


3
(4)but never after it

You might choose (2)which started in 1914, but in this case you need a comma right after 1914 in the sentence.

4 ( ) the British embassy in Tokyo, about 12,500 British people live in japan.
(1)it is said by (2)According to (3)Further to (4) Ｅｘｃｅｐｔ for

(2)According to
I do not have any good explanation about this, but (2) is the most probable sentence among them.

5 ( ) that many people are choosing to fly the English flag rather than the British Union Jack, some residents from Indian from and Pakistani families say they feel more comfortable.
(1)Ｓｏ (2)Ｂｅｃａｕｓｅ (3)Ｉｔ is said (4)Having seen

(4)Having seen
You can not use a that-clause after because.
When you use "Ｉｔ is said", the sentence ends before the comma in the sentence. Then there is no reason to connect two sentences by a comma without any conjunction.
In addition, I have not seen sentences beginning with "so that".

英語だけだと削除対象になりますので、日本語でかいつまんで、
1はfeatureとisは三人称単数の共通の主語をもちます。
2自信がありませんが、moveとbeのタイムフレームは一致しているのではと
3(2)を選ぶと1914のあとにコンマが必要かと
4感覚で一番有り得そうな(2)
5(2)、(3)では文が成り立ちません。

失礼ながら、１の文ですが

word → world
Rio (Janeiro's) → Rio de (Janeiro's)
ではありませんか。

the second biggest carnival in the world 《after Rio de (Janeiro's) 》
《リオデジャネイロのカーニバルにつぐ》世界で２番目に大きなカーニバル
で意味が通ります。

　もし上の指摘通りであるならば、他の箇所も原文テキスト通り（コンマの有無も含め）であるか、確認お願いします。
