【解析】

文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。介绍了作者和她的打呼噜的妹妹艾米丽的故事，当作者准备换房间去睡觉感到害怕时，艾米丽却也睡不着了。最终，作者还是和妹妹睡在了自己的新房间。

1.翻译题。要求把画线的英文句子“Emily snores so much that I can’t sleep.”翻译成汉语。snores 打呼噜；so much 如此多；I，我；can't sleep不能睡觉。so… that…“如此…以致于…”；故答案为“艾米丽打鼾太厉害了，我睡不着。”

2.连词成句。根据所给出的提示词以及后面的标点符号“myself, to, love, but, I, having, the, room（.）”可判断本句为一个肯定句，I可做主语；love为动词，可做谓语；love doing sth. 指“喜欢做某事”；have sth. to oneself 指“独自占有某物”；but为转折连词置于句首；故答案为But I love having the room to myself.

3.词句猜测题。根据上文的May I move into the guest room (客房)，Mom?可知，这里表示让Jessica去客房居住。故答案为guest room。

4.写出同义词。画线部分scared，意为“害怕的”，形容词，在句中作系动词is的表语，其同义词为afraid“害怕的、担心的”，形容词，故答案为afraid。

5.考查代词含义。根据上文Just then I saw Emily standing in the doorway. I said, “I'm a little scared. Just for tonight, will you sleep with me in my new room?”可知，我是与Emily对话，所以这里的she代指Emily。故答案为Emily。
