Answer:
At the beginning of the story, Luis has a negative attitude towards his job in his father's junkyard. Luis is initially frustrated with his job and dreams of leaving the junkyard. He resents the long hours and hard work, and feels trapped. However, as the story progresses, Luis begins to see the beauty in the objects he works with and takes pride in his ability to create something new out of what others consider junk. This change in attitude is highlighted by his decision to create a sculpture out of scrap metal and enter it into a local art competition.
