解析：

(1)	短文开头介绍这一天正是古镇赶集，后面又介绍街道上非常拥挤，因此选D项说明原因。for表示原因时是补充说明的原因，常放在句子的末尾。
(2)	由后面的形容词overcrowded(过于拥挤的)可以推测街道狭窄，符合前面说的“即使主街道也是很拥挤的”。
(3)	由于街道狭窄，所以道路旁边的人行道上没有足够的空间给所有的行人。此处强调空间，应该用room; land表示“土地”；area表示“面积”；ground表示“地面”。
(4)	因为道路旁边的人行道上没有足够的空间给所有的行人，于是他们就涌向主要街道。此处只是顺接的关系，而非转折或选择的关系，所以四个选项中只有and符合语意。
(5)	causing在句子中作结果状语，表示“引起，造成”。其他三项意思不对。
(6)	本处要说的是行人经过过往的汽车和货车时会对生命造成危险。动词pass用作及物动词，表示“从……旁走过”，符合语意。
(7)	the drivers of which引导一个非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词cars and lorries。此处连接词要代表cars and lorries，不能用whom，而that不可以接在介词之后。
(8)	司机不停地按喇叭是为了叫行人让开，persuade sb．to do sth．劝某人做某事。C和D项用在此空都有语法错误。而allow sb．to do则是“允许某人做某事”。
(9)	构成词组get out of one's way表示“让路，躲闪开”。
(10)	这一段展示了街道上各种各样行人的画面，所以用colorful(丰富多彩)比较符合语境。
(11)	根据上下文，因为是赶集，农民们把筐或毛毯堆在街道上是为了把它们卖出去。其他三项意思都不符合。
(12)	因为集市很拥挤，所以这些卖东西的人前进时很困难，很费劲。force one's way构成词组表示“费力地往前走”。
(13)	此处要表达这些人高声叫卖，at the top of one's voice构成词组，表示“以某人最高的声音”。
(14)	harvest表示“收获，收成，丰收”，the harvest of the fields表示“他们自己田里的收获”。productions很可能被误选，误以为是“产品”，但表示“产品”要用products或produce，而production是表示“生产”，是行为或过程。
(15)	through it all表示“透过这一切”，人们看到其他情景。across表示“横穿”；above表示“在……之上”；after表示“在……后”。
(16)	连词while强调前后有同时发生或伴随发生的含义，此处和前句“women in bright summer clothes made their way, laughing and talking”做对比。而when和as是表达“当……时候”不符合此处语境。
(17)	cry with fear表示“因害怕而哭”，因为后面一句“because they were lost”，所以可推出孩子是因为害怕才哭喊。
(18)	根据语境，人们从各种活动中逐渐消失。
(19)	由于街上的人群纷纷离开，而使得街道上空荡荡的，和前面的非常拥挤有明显的对比。silence表示沉默。calm平静。
(20)	remain指“留下”，left此处要用被动形式，lay表示“躺着”，与后半句“风中闲荡着”句意不合。根据题意“这时只有人们留下的垃圾在风中闲荡着”可知应选A。
