导读本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了妹妹的出生改变了“我”的生活。 虽然和妹妹经常吵架，但是在和她一起生活的过程中“我”学会了分享和宽容。

详析

1. B根据后面的回答“让我们叫她肉汁吧”可知此处指妈妈问“我”应该给妹妹取个什么名字。

2. C taste意为“尝起来”。肉只能是尝起来好，故选择tastes 

3. A instead用于句尾，意为“代替，反而”。句意:最后我们叫新生儿卡洛琳，而不是叫她肉汁。

4. B通过分析两个分句的意思可知此处用when。句意：当我跟妹妹一起玩耍的时候，我们常常争吵、打架。

5. Band连接并列成分。指我们常常争吵、打架。

6. B “我”和妹妹经常发生矛盾，父母自然会生气。

7. D根据下文提到的“...but most families."可知此处要表达“在北美有各种各样的家庭，但大多数家庭有一个男孩和一个女孩”。

8. C此处的some与most相对，句意:一些家庭有三个孩子或更多。

9. A中国的一些中学生希望有个兄弟姐妹。wish后的从句可用虚拟语气。

10. C as意为“作为”。句意:把你的朋友和同学当作兄弟姐妹来对待！
