He immediately had an eye on that beautiful painting.

I was surprised by his ill-bred attitude.

I can't stand his impudent attitude.

He tied the rope to the tree.

He practices every day to learn new skills.

By participating in that project, he was able to give some dignity to his career.

He likes to put on airs in front of his new friends.

He bought a new car and is living an ostentatious life.

He is a vain person, so he always wears expensive clothes.

He is an ostentatious person, always buying new luxury cars and bragging about them.
