It was very cold. It snowed heavily and blew very strongly. It was not a good night to go out. But David had to walk home from work "I can be warmer," he thought, "I wear my coat backwards①."He took off his coat and put it on backwards. "That's much better." He thought and walked on. About ten minutes later a car hit him. The driver stopped his car and got out of it. He ran to help David.

Soon a police car arrived. The policeman ran to look at David. "I'm afraid he's dead." The policeman told the driver.

The driver could not believe it. "He can't be dead." He cried, "I did not touch him. Look at my car. There is not a mark②on it.""He's dead." The policeman said again."I don't understand it. "The driver said," As soon as I hit him. I ran to help him. He was lying on the road, but he was breathing and there was no blood③.""Did you touch him?" The policeman asked."Yes," The driver said, "but I only turn his head around the right way."

My 14-year-old brother John and I saw the coat at the same time. The thick black woolen coat was soft, and it cost only $28. We looked at each other, saying n 1  , but John’s face was shining with joy. Dark woolen coats were p  2   with boys just then, and could cost several hundred dollars. But this coat was even better and m   3    cheaper.

John t  4   on the coat and bought it at once. John wore the coat to school the next day and came home with a big smile. “H   5   did the kids like your coat?” I asked. “They loved it,” he said. I started c   6   him “Lord (老爷) John”.

A few weeks later , something good h  7   to John. He became more polite, more helpful and more pleasing. He was willing to lend his classmates his pens; he was willing to bring his father a cup of tea when he got home; he was willing to help a blind man c  8  the road.

When my mother told this to one of his teachers, he said, “It must be his coat!” One day, in the library, my brother and I ran into a friend. “Could this be John?” he asked. John shook hands with him, l   9  a gentleman(绅士)!

I think John changed b  10   of his own attitude(态度). If you think you are a gentleman or a lady, you can become a perfect one.
