解析：

(1)	根據句意和詞的用法可排除另三項。
(2)	與the unpleasant smell形成對比。
(3)	由第二個空格前的那句話可知，作者在這里強調的不是室內陳設的混亂，根據下文應指混亂的“人”。
(4)	根據上節以及the magazines…like a great pile of waste paper可知，這里很不衛生，墻上的畫想必也是和桌上的雜志一樣布滿了灰塵。另三個選項與下一分句意義不符。
(5)	“像一堆廢紙”應是一種視覺感受。
(6)	take one's seat意為“就座”。
(7)	下文描述的均為候診室里眾人的神志，故應選用watching(觀看)。
(8)	從quickly and nervously以及下一句可以推知，他是在“翻看”雜志。
(9)	他在那兒快速地、神經質地似地翻動雜志，并且隔一會兒就換一本，真讓人“很難”判斷他到底要看什么。
(10)	every three minutes意為“每隔兩分鐘”。另A、D一般不接復數名詞，C不能與or so連用。
(11)	從第五個空格前的內容可知，雜志是放在桌上的，所以他只能將雜志扔回到“桌子”上，并從那兒再取一本。
(12)	根據語境可推知，小孩子的母親正竭力“阻止”他發出聲音以免影響他人，特別是旁邊正在熟睡的老人。allow不合語境，forbid不接sb from doing, fight表意不清。
(13)	小孩的母親正竭力阻止他發出“聲音”，因為他正在地上撥弄煙灰缸，同時還在揮動手中的鉛筆以模仿飛機的聲音。
(14)	“在揮動鉛筆時的同時”模仿飛機的聲音。
(15)	憑語感。另三項與文中的小孩無關。
(16)	憑語感。她的孩子并沒有將那位老人吵醒，故她沒必要難過(sorry)或生氣(angry)。
(17)	“將……弄醒”應為wake…up。
(18)	由the door opened和…led out of the room可推知。
(19)	人們本都是坐著的，故護士進來時，他們自然是抬頭“向上”看。
(20)	被護士帶出的肯定是“病人”，余者不合語境。
