One cold night，I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco． There I was walking home around one o’clock in the morning after a
26 practice at the theatre． With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart．I was having
27 handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time． As I walked I thought seriously about
28 both acting and San Francisco．I had
29 too much of city life．
As 1 walked down the
30 streets under the tall buildings，I felt very small and cold, so I began
31 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers．Very few people were still out
32 a few homeless people under blankets．
About a block from my
33 , I heard a sound behind me． I
34 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun． The street was empty．All I saw was a shining streetlight． Still，the noise had made me
35 , so I started to run faster． Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I
36 what the noise had been．It had been my wallet
37 to the sidewalk．
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired any more．I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise．Although I searched the sidewalk
38 for 15 minutes，my wallet was
39 to be found．
Just as 1 was about to quit the
40 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to
41 ．When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?”I thought I was
42 ．How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an amused look in his eyes, “Is this
43 you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up something like a wallet．
It was already 3 am． by the time I got into bed． I couldn’t get much sleep，but I had got my wallet back． I also had got back some
44 of city life． I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place
45 people were willing to help each other．
