I turned around to see who the thief was. I looked at the people standing behind40 . My heart sank and I began to 41 .me, but didn’t see my bag or anyoneI glanced around the car only to find directly across from me was an elderly lady, andsitting on her lap was my 42 . I tried to get it back from her lap. But as I began to43 it up, she quickly grabbed(抓住) it back and held onto it.

But 52 I had a chance tothank her, she had disappeared into the crowd.Sadly, this considerate custom was more 53 to me than if I had been robbed.
