解析：

(1)	由于這個小男孩對居住在這座房子里的人不太了解，所以敲門是感到應該是緊張或恐懼。同時，也只有這種理解才能解釋空白前的Sweat(出汗)。
(2)	根據文章最后提到的老人的變化，我們可以看出這位老人原來“很少”出門。
(3)	等待了一會兒，發現沒有人開門，小孩只能“走開”。而不是B(破門而入)。
(4)	根據本句后面的if you would like to buy…，可以得出答案。
(5)	I was wondering屬于固定表達，通常用于較委婉地提出問題。
(6)	本題考查代詞。這個小孩不可能只賣一份雜志，所以只能選one。
(7)	老人對小孩所說的話反應比較冷漠，只“看了一眼”，并沒有回答。
(8)	collect：收集。A項的意思是“養”，其實我們知道老人并不是真正養狗，而是收集狗的雕像。
(9)	本句前半部分說明了小孩為老人感到“sorry”，應該是因為看到他很“孤獨”。
(10)	一本面對“collectors”的雜志對老人來說當然很適合了。
(11)	老人對小孩所說的根本不感興趣，所以“冷冷地”拒絕了。
(13)	idea表示“注意”。A項指的是對某事物的正誤，美丑等觀點；C表示“決心”；D表示“思想”。
(14)	此處與文章的倒數第二句呼應。
(15)	從下一句可以看出小孩又回去了。
(16)	老人以為小孩又來賣雜志了。
(17)	gift表示禮物。B項表示玩具娃娃。
(18)	小孩把小雕像“遞給”老人。
(19)	老人受到禮物，很高興，剛才臉上的不耐煩就煙消云散了，有了精神。
(20)	老人問的是小孩為什么要這么做，我們可以從小孩的回答中得到暗示。
