解析：

(1)	他(父親)殘疾且“矮小”。據(jù)下文父親扶我肩而行，short是最佳答案。
(2)	他扶我的肩膀而行，明顯是為了使他的行走平衡。上文keep my balance亦有提示。
(3)	路人側目，我極不舒服，不需要這種“注意”。前文有stare暗示。不能選C項situation。
(4)	即使他注意到或被煩擾，亦不表露(show)出來。
(5)	根據(jù)上下語境可知父子二人高矮同行，我心里又極不愿意，要想二人步伐一致，是有點難。
(6)	根據(jù)上下語境可知父子二人同行，我心里又極不愿意，因而沒有話說(say)。
(7)	但每次出發(fā)時，父親總是說，你定速度，我努力跟上。pace文章最后一句有提示。
(8)	我們的每日行程是來往地鐵之間，這是他上班的方式(how)。D項where干擾大。但文中未提及subway即他工作的地方。
(9)	即使別人不去上班，父親依然要去。make it固定短語，“做成功”之意。
(10)	且以此為傲(pride)。
(11)	父親從不認為自己是需要同情的人，他亦不妒忌別人的幸運或成功。
(12)	父親不以貌判人，在別人身上父親找的是“善良之心”。
(13)	一旦父親找到了，父親認為此人就夠了。
(14)	我稍居年事之后，以父親的人生哲學為處世標準(standard)。
(15)	可我還是搞不清真正的善良是什么。
(16)	但我明白我本人沒有善良之心。
(17)	我不知他在天之靈是否會感到(sense)當時我們同行時我的極不情愿。
(18)	見上句解析。
(19)	我稍居年事之后，為年少不更事而后悔、害羞。
(20)	解析：這里恢復平衡(regain my balance)不是指身體上的平衡恢復，而是指年少時自己對父親的傷害，何時才能使自己內(nèi)疚的心理恢復平衡。 　　文章大意：這是一篇刻畫人物細節(jié)活動的文章。我年少時以自己的父親殘疾為恥。尤其當與他同行時，父親要扶我的肩膀而行，讓路人側目，這讓我尤為尷尬、害羞。但父親不以之為賤，坦然上班。我稍居年事之后，才感到父親善良的偉大。我不僅為年少不更事而后悔，而且以父親的人生哲學為處世標準。
