Question

My 14-year-old brother John dreamed of having a black woolen coat, for at that time this kind of coat was   1  with teenagers, but it could cost several hundred dollars. One day my brother and I went into a shop and saw a black woolen coat at the same time. The coat felt very soft, and it cost only ＄28. It was   2  but so nice. We looked at each other, saying nothing, but John’s eyes shone.
John tried on the coat and   3  it at once. John wore the coat to school the next day happily and came home with a big   4 . “How do the kids like your coat?” I asked. “They love it,” he said. I started to call him “Lord (老爺) John”.
Over the next few weeks, there seemed to be a   5  in John. He became more polite, more confident and more pleasing. He would   6  his classmates his pens; he would bring his father a cup of tea when he got home; he would   7  a blind man cross the road.
When my mother talked about her son’s change with one of his teachers and wondered what caused it, he said, “It must be his  8 !” One day, in the library, my brother and I happened to meet a friend of my father’s, who had not seen us for a long time. John came up and shook hands with him like a   9 ! The friend said in surprise, “Are you John? You have changed so much!”
What really changed John was his own attitude(態(tài)度).   10  you think you are a gentleman or a lady, you can become a perfect one.
