One cold night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco．There I was walking home around one o clock m the morning after a   36   practice at the theatre With he opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart. I was having   37  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  38  both acting and San Francisco. I had  39  too much of city life.
As I walked down the  40  streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began  41  both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out  42 a few homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my  43  , I heard a sound behind me. I   44   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  45  so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I   46   what the noise had been. It had been my wallet  47  to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk   48  for 15 minutes, my wallet was   49  to be found.
Just as I was about to quit the  50  , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to  51  .when a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camcho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an  52  look in his eyes. “Is this  53   you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up something like a wallet.
It was already 3 a.m. 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  54  of city life. I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place  55  people were willing to help each other.
