解析：

(1)just在这里相当于only。Tim Becker开车买东西时，不只是去商店，然后就回家。yet然而；still仍然；rather相当。 (2)从上下文可知，他在开车买东西时，仔细观察周围情况，以便发现问题。clearly清楚地，nervously紧张地；coldly冷静地。 (3)只有发生了不正常的事才表明出现了问题。 (4)拉上窗帘的窗户，开着的窗户和旧的窗子均不能说明发生了意外的事。只有破碎的窗户(broken windows)才表明可能发生了意外的事。 (5)belong to属于，从上下文可知，Tim是这个地方的治安联保队队员。 (6)从文中discuss一词可知，他们在固定的时间讨论社区的安全问题。 (7)这是when引导的表语从句，when指开会的时间。 (8)联保队的目的是保卫社区安全，所以讨论的应该是社区安全问题，而不是其他。 (9)keep...safe“保卫……的安全”。这里只有keep可接宾语再接宾语补足语，其他的词不可。 (10)社区是由许多住户组成，应为their。 (11)happen to sb. 某人发生了什么事。人们似乎认为犯罪发生在别人身上而不会发生在自己身上。 (12)right“权利”任何人都没有偷别人东西的权利。 (13)任何人都没有偷别人的东西或使别人家里感到不安全的权利。 (14)look out注意。为了保证全社区的安全，邻居们都互相注意对方的安全问题。 (15)watch one's homes“看家”。邻居们相互照顾好家。 (16)a group of“一组，一群”。平常人们三五结队而行。a set of一套；a number of许多；a crowd of人群。这三个短语都不能和含有数词的宾语连用。 (17)一旦发生问题要和警察取得联系。 (18)look for trouble“找麻烦”。当他们注意到一伙年轻人在找麻烦或有人损坏财产时，就向警察报告。 (19)社区联保队帮助警察使犯罪率下降。 (20)社区联保队做到了警察难以做到的事情。
