  America's latest strategy for single persons who don't want to be single any longer has many names: speeddating, expressdate, 10-minute-dating or simply mini-date.

  The principle is the same: Why spend an 1 evening with a stranger 2 you realize after only the first few minutes that you can't 3 the person?

  The solution: The man and woman sit down 4 each other. A bell is sounded, and in the next 7 to 10 minutes each one tries to find out as much as possible about the 5 persons. When the bell 6 off a second time, the men stand up and move 7 to the next female.

  At such a meeting in San Francisco 8 , some 200 men and women between the ages of 30 and 60 had a 9 expression on their faces; in two long 10 opposite each other. The signal was given, and then almost everybody started 11 away.

  Richard Gosse. 12 of“American Singles, ”says this is the fastest, most effective and at the moment“ 13 way”tosearch for a partner. Minute-dates have become a 14 everywhere from computer fans in Silicon Valley to gays in San Francisco to the suburbs of Chicago. Gosse says the quick method to get to know each other is helpful above all for 15 singles who are not brave enough to speak to a stranger in a bar.

  His 16 : Don't talk about money, your weight or about your former partner, but 17 about your dreams, desires and hobbies.

  Most speed-dating meetings cost about US$25 per evening, 18 a person to get to know 15 to 20 people 19 the opposite sex. Speed-dating is so much in demand in America that most meetings are 20 out weeks and months in advance.

  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   1   practice at the theatre.With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart.I was having   2   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   3   both acting and San Francisco.I had   4   too much of city life.

  As I walked down the   5   streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began   6   both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers.Very few people were still out except a few homeless people under blankets.

  About a block from my   7  , I heard a sound behind me.I   8   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   9  , so I started to run faster.Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I   10   what the noise had been.It had been my wallet   11   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   12   for 15 minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.

  Just as I was about to quit the   13  , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to me.When a voice came 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 blonde man with an   14   look in his eyes.“Is this what you're looking for?” He asked, holding up 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   15   of city life.I realized the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.
