【分析】
这是一道基础的阅读细节补全句子题，解题时首先通读全文，了解Jack现在和过去的生活状态的整体大意，之后逐个对照题干的问题，带着关键词回到原文精准定位对应的语句，直接提取和空缺处匹配的原文原词即可，填写时注意核对题干的时间限定、名词搭配要求，保证答案和原文信息完全一致即可。
【解析】
我们逐题回到原文定位对应信息完成填空：
1. 原文第一句直接点明"Jack is a worker."，因此空缺处填worker。
2. 第一段第二句提到"He lives in a nice house."，对应题干询问现在Jack居住的房子的特征，填nice。
3. 第二段首句说明"But he had a hard(艰难的) life ten years ago."，对应题干询问十年前Jack的生活状态，两个空依次填hard、ten。
4. 第二段明确描述"He could only wear his old coat in cold winter."，空缺处填coat。
5. 第二段最后一句提到"He worked very hard and did many part-time jobs."，many后接可数名词复数，空缺处填jobs。

1. worker 2. nice 3. hard; ten 4. coat 5. jobs
