Question

One will feel happy when others flatter( 奉承) him in his face. It is said that the best way of flattering someone is to give him a “top hat”1.
A student was going to leave the capital to become 2official (官員) in a city far away. Before he started, he came to say 3to his teacher.
“It is4 job to be a good official.” his teacher said. “ you must be strict5 yourself and never be careless.”
“Don’t worry about me, sir.” The student answered. “I have already6anyone hundred top hats, which will 7those people quite happy.”
“But we are really gentlemen! 8could a real gentleman do such a thing ? ” His teacher was a bit 9. “ Never forget 10I taught you in class!”
“ 11are always right, sir. I also hate such things. But, sir,12no one really gentleman like you can be seen in the world now.” said the student. It seemed that he had to do so.
13hearing this, the teacher was pleased. “What you said is true!”
“I have 14one top hat already. Now I have ninety-nine 15.” the student said to his friend later on when he asked the student what he had talked with the teacher about.
