blankets.
About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned 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 nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling 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 anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “ Alisa Camacho ?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.
It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.

战胜的) between 1981 and 1986. ___37_________. But the retirement (退役) of the players who won in Athens led to a period of difficulty. The newcomers didn’t perform well enough and coaches changed too often.
_______38_______. She had led the Chinese to the 1981 and 1985 World Cup titles as a player. As head coach, she “brought in fresh air, using more young players boldly (大胆地)”, according to Xinhua. As a result, young players got more chances to train and play for the national team.

She said the injury was “not a big deal”. Only after she had helped the team win that game did she tell reporters: “My ankles (脚踝) were really in pain, but I hid it.”
