Polished transcript:

Male Female

I'm a person who loses items often, and in most cases, I don't notice something is missing for a long time, if ever. However, I should pay more attention to these things. Last week, I lost my wallet. When I came home, I felt tired, and firstly, when I arrived home, I always take off my clothes. I checked my trousers pockets, but I couldn't find my wallet. At first, I didn't worry about it because my mother and I searched high and low at home, but this search was not successful. Then I realized that I had lost it. I tried to remember where I had been, and I recalled that before I arrived home, I entered the supermarket and bought important items like bread, potatoes, tomatoes, and other things. I think I left my wallet there. This wallet is important to me because my grandfather gave it to me for my birthday. It contains bank cards, tickets, and some money. After remembering this, I went back to the supermarket to find my wallet.
