導讀本文是一篇記敘文，講述了妹妹的出生改變了“我”的生活。 雖然和妹妹經(jīng)常吵架，但是在和她一起生活的過程中“我”學會了分享和寬容。

詳析

1. B根據(jù)后面的回答“讓我們叫她肉汁吧”可知此處指媽媽問“我”應(yīng)該給妹妹取個什么名字。

2. C taste意為“嘗起來”。肉只能是嘗起來好，故選擇tastes 

3. A instead用于句尾，意為“代替，反而”。句意:最后我們叫新生兒卡洛琳，而不是叫她肉汁。

4. B通過分析兩個分句的意思可知此處用when。句意：當我跟妹妹一起玩耍的時候，我們常常爭吵、打架。

5. Band連接并列成分。指我們常常爭吵、打架。

6. B “我”和妹妹經(jīng)常發(fā)生矛盾，父母自然會生氣。

7. D根據(jù)下文提到的“...but most families."可知此處要表達“在北美有各種各樣的家庭，但大多數(shù)家庭有一個男孩和一個女孩”。

8. C此處的some與most相對，句意:一些家庭有三個孩子或更多。

9. A中國的一些中學生希望有個兄弟姐妹。wish后的從句可用虛擬語氣。

10. C as意為“作為”。句意:把你的朋友和同學當作兄弟姐妹來對待！

When I was five years old just before my sister was bom,my mum asked me what we should name the new baby.當我5歲時，也就是我妹妹出生前，媽媽問我應(yīng)該給新生兒起什么

名字。

該句是由when引導的時間狀語從句，主句中包含一個 what引導的賓語從句，從句中when I was five years old 與 before my sister was born為同位語，指同一時間
