解析：

(1)	選A。考查名詞。根據后文語境的暗示可知，本文主要談論的是生活幸福的問題。
(2)	考查形容詞。從本段前文If you had the cookie, things were good．的對比可知，此處是表達與good相反的意思，因此選C。
(3)	考查動詞。根據后文所說，一會兒是金錢，一會兒是權力，可見這個cookie是變化的。
(4)	考查短語理解。從前文的some, sometimes可知，作者在對事情的表現形式進行列舉，因此此處用other。
(5)	考查動詞。說話時有regretfully的表情，顯然是伴隨不滿意的動作，shaking符合語境要求。
(6)	考查動詞。本文談論的是生活的問題，不難想到live。
(7)	考查動詞。小餅被拿走了或弄壞了，兒子就會不高興。
(8)	考查名詞。小孩年紀小，能夠有小餅吃就滿意了，大人卻因為要求高，對一個餅是不會滿意的。
(9)	考查名詞。考查對名詞引導的時間狀語從句的理解，the minute“一……就”。
(10)	考查動詞。根據語境，此處表達的是一種擔憂。
(11)	考查動詞短語辨析。一但自己擁有的東西有被人拿走的危險，就會放棄許多其他的事情來保護自己的cookie。
(12)	考查形容詞。確保沒人能夠拿走自己的cookie。
(13)	考查從屬連詞。此處表示原因，故選B。
(14)	考查動名詞運用。根據前文語境，不難想到用having。
(15)	考查名詞。這個病人患了癌癥，正是因為得了癌癥，所以他改變了對生活的看法。
(16)	考查形容詞。改變了對生活的看法后，他的心情就快樂了。
(17)	考查名詞。因為他是商人，所以經營的應該是business。
(18)	考查動詞。根據后文的句式是一個問句，故用ask。
(19)	考查動詞。從后文中的do with可知答案。
(20)	考查形容詞。活著就是最重要的，活著就是人生最大的幸福。這是整篇短文的落腳點。
