My l4-year-old son, John, and I spotted the coat which was hanging at a secondhand clothing store in Northampton Mass. While the other coats drooped, this one looked as if it were
36 itself up. The coat had beautiful tailoring, a Fifth Avenue label and a(an)
37 price of $28, which was popular just then with
38 , but could cost several hundred dollars new. This coat was even better, bearing that
39 of classic elegance. John tried it on and the fit was perfect.
John
40 the coat to school the next day and came home wearing a big smile "Did the kids like your coat?" I asked. "They loved it," he said,
41 folding it over the back of a chair and smoothing it flat. Over the next few weeks, a
42 came over John. Agreement replaced contrariness and reasoned discussion replaced fierce
43 . He became more mannerly and
44 , eager to please. He would generously loan his younger brother his tapes and lecture him
45 his behavior.
When I mentioned this incident to his teacher and
46 what caused the changes, she said laughing. "It
47 be his coat!" Another teacher told him she was giving him a good
48 not only because he had earned
49 but because she liked his coat. At the library, we ran into a friend “Could this be John?" he asked surprisingly,
50 John's new height, assessing the cut of his coat and extending his hand, one gentleman to another.
John and I both know we should never
51 a person's clothes for the real person within them. 52 there is something to be said for wearing a standard of excellence for the world to see and for
53 what is on the inside to what is on the outside.
For John it is a time when it is as easy to try on different approaches to
54 as it is to try on a coat. The whole world, the whole future is stretched out ahead, a vast landscape
55 all the doors are open. And he could picture himself walking through those doors wearing his wonderful, magical coat.

一、文章特点：
生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪，使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文，如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事，有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。有时故事的结尾会有一句“点睛之笔”，点出全文的中心思想，就像《伊索寓言》里的寓言一样。还可能是夹叙夹议的哲理散文或生活随笔。散文随笔通常会阐述一种朴素易懂，耳熟能详的人生道理或宝贵品质。文章的结构和议论文类似，一般是总分总或总分结构。每段首句或尾句为主题句（论点），其它句子围绕主题展开论述（论据），论证方法多种多样，或举例，或引用名言，或正反对照等。
二、解题技巧：
针对生活感悟类文章的特点，做这类文章的完形填空时，要特别注意以下几点：
1、重点理解全文的首句。如果是记叙文，找出when，where，who，what等基本要素。如果是散文随笔，充分理解文章的中心句—全文的主题。
2、阅读全文的结尾段或结尾句，有助于理解文章所阐述或蕴含的哲理、感悟或忠告等。
3、调动自己的背景知识和情感。这类文章不会讲大道理也不会涉及到一些很专业的知识技术领域，而是谈一些小事和简单的道理，所以如果读者能和作者产生感情上的共鸣，读者会更好地把握作者的意图态度，从而提高做题的准确度。因此，考生在平时要做一个有心人，即用心去感悟生活中发生的小事，思考人生的一些基本道理，多阅读一些短小精悍的美文，多写写自己的心情故事和对生活学习的感悟。只有平时多用心，做题时才能调动自己的背景知识和情感。
