Question

閱讀理解。

     My 10-year-old Donna said, "Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over
tomorrow?" Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
     "Sure, honey, that sounds great." I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across
the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my
daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny
black hair and a mile-wide smile.
    In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away
from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." she told me. But three days later, Lillian's sister
told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New
Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.
    The next day Donna brought her new friend home. "Hi, Mrs. Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was
so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. "My name is Laura."
    My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled (迷惑) when Laura's mom
came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" she cried. "It's me,
Lillian's sister, from Washington Heights." Yes, my daughter's friend looked familiar. She was Lillian's
niece.
