Default 2000 Chevy Malibu won't start

The car dose not start this morning although it ran ok yesterday. There was no sound when the ignition was turned to start but all lights on the panel and radio work.

The same problem happened a few weeks ago. An AAA operator told me to put ignition at ACC and switch the gear a few times, and this method worked. Now it happened again and this method fails to work.
