When I settled in Chicago，my new city seemed so big and unfriendly. Then I had a     26        problem and had to go to hospital for a      27    examination.

    It seemed a small    28   compared to the one I was about to face ,but things started to go     29 right from the beginning , Not having a car or    30    the city, I was depending on a couple of buses to get me from A to B.     31   I’d left myself plenty of time, soon it was    32    I was going to be late, as I had mistakenly boarded a bus that was taking me in the      33    direction.

    I    34   the bus and stood on the pavement not knowing what to do. I looked into the eyes of a    35   , who was trying to get past me.     36  , instead of moving on ,she stopped to ask if I was     37   .  After I explained my    38    to her, she pointed to a bus stop across the street , where a bus would take me back into the city to my    39     . Sitting there waiting, I felt   40  that someone had been willing to help .    41    , hearing a horn （喇叭） nearby, I looked up to see a car with my new friend      42      at me to get in, She had returned to offer me a      43   to the hospital.

     Such unexpected      44   from a passer-by was a lovely gift to receive. As I climbed out of the car at the hospital and turned to thank her, she smiled and told me not to lose    45     , for all things are possible.
