阅读强化训练(十) (建议用时：25分钟) 阅读理解Susan Cottrell, a London, Ontario woman，was surprised and deeply moved last Friday when the Star handed her a package, containing a handmade darkgreen shawl(披肩). It was not just a piece of clothing, but also the thoughtfulness of a complete stranger named Katrina King, of Fort Collins, Colorado.In a handwritten note with the gift, King wrote that she had read the Stars Oct. 12 online article about the disappearance of Cottrells shawl. Cottrell had knit(编织) to keep calm while her husband, Carl Johnston, was stuck between life and death during a major surgery(外科手术). The shawl disappeared from Toronto General Hospital (TGH) in August.“Im sorry that your beautiful shawl has disappeared，”said the note, which Cottrell read aloud, sometimes pausing.“Someone may just see a pretty object. unless they understand a knitter very well. It doesnt have a deeper meaning.”Kings shawl was first sent to the Star, and the newspaper brought it to Cottrell at eweKnit on Markham St., where she teaches a class once a week. She immediately replaced the black shawl she was wearing with Kings creation.“Its so beautiful. How very, very thoughtful，”said Cottrell.“I would give her such a big hug.”Like Cottrell, its clear that King also likes to knit when going through tough times, which include watching her father recover from a heart attack in hospital and staying by her daughters side as she had tonsil(扁桃腺) surgery.Cottrell said she is now focused on her husbands recovery. After months spent between hospitals in London and Toronto, Johnston was sent home about two weeks ago.“I cooked a meal for the two of us, the first time Ive done that in six months，”said Cottrell, laughing, while still feeling her new shawl.“Its so beautiful. So, so beautiful.”【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Cottrell 丢失了自己精心编织的披肩，好心人King女士送给了她一条新的披肩。1What can we infer from the note?AKing was a friend of Cottrells.BKing knew Cottrells feelings well.CCottrell was sometimes very careless.DCottrell worried about Johnstons recovery.B解析：推理判断题。由第三段可知，King非常理解Cottrell的心情。2Which of the following played a key role in delivering Kings shawl?AA hospital.BA newspaper.CKings father.
