问题     My sister and I looked forward to new clothes for the New Year. But one day my mother said, "Listen, children. We don’t have enough money now. So only one of you can get new clothes. " The silence(寂静)lasted for a few minutes. My tears(眼泪)were coming out.
    "OK, I have an idea," my sister said. "I’ll write ’new clothes’ on a piece of paper and ’nothing’on another. We cast lots(抽签)to decide. "
    I agreed. While she was writing at the table, I found her clothes were old and she had grown too big for the clothes. I looked at my own. They were old, but still the right size for me.
    "Pick one," my sister said.
    I picked one and opened it. Two words ran into my eyes: NEW CLOTHES. I forgot my sad feelings and jumped up.
    A few days later, I ran into the sitting room in my new clothes where my mother and my sister were reading. My sister gave me a smile and went on reading. My mother called me to her side and showed me two pieces of paper. On each of them was written: NEW CLOTHES.
Why did the writer’ s sister suggest casting lots?

选项 A、She wanted to have new clothes herself.
B、She wanted the writer to have new clothes.
C、She wanted her mother to have new clothes.

答案B

解析 句意:为什么姐姐建议抽签?推理题。从原文第二段最后一句“We cast lots to decide.”以及文章最后一句“On each of themwas written:NEW CLOTHES.”可知姐姐建议抽签,并把两张纸条上都写上“新衣”,其目的就是为了让作者得到新衣。故选B。
