Dear Kids Advice Magazine
June 10, 2017
Hi, my name is Evan and being the eldest child in the family surely has its disadvantages. First of all, I have to share all my toys and games with my younger Siblings, William and Julia. Of course, they don't need to return the favour because I'm totally uninterested in their things. Besides that, Julia and William are always hanging around me. It's especially annoying when I have a friend over. We look for a secluded place in the house where they can't disturb (打扰) us, but within minutes, they've found us and are asking to join in.I just can't seem to get a moment's peace. At meal times,I have to eat whatever is on my plate regardless of the portion size or taste. William and Julia only need to try one bite when it's not their favorite food. Not only this, but I'm expected to be cooperative (合作的,配台的) at all times because I'm the oldest and need to be a role model for them.
It doesn't seem fair either that I have more chores to do around the house than Julia and William put together. Plus, when it comes to practising our musical instruments,I have to practise more than double the time. Oh, and the worst part of it all is the huge quantities of homework I get compared to them.
I'm feeling rather annoyed wilh my sibling situation. Can you please write back with some advice?
Yours truly
Evan Smith

【解析】这是一封书信,在信中作者抱怨两个年幼的兄弟姐妹给自己造成的困扰,比如他们经常吵闹,让自己感觉很吵,心情很差;同时还抱怨自己练习乐器的时间比较长,做家务比较多.基于此,写信向朋友寻求帮助.
⑴ 推理判断,文中提到"I have to share all my toys and games with my younger Siblings,William and Julia"我必须和我的兄弟姐妹们平分玩具,他们是William和Julia,由此可知加上我家里一共三个孩子,由此确定填写There're three children in the family.

This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma.
