Jim was 12, and he neverremembered having a kind word spoken to him in his whole life.One day as Jim walked down a street, he saw a lady in front of him, with some books under her arms. Suddenly, the books dropped down. Jim ran up to help her pick them up. “Thank you, dear. You are a nice little boy,” she said kindly and went on her way after giving him a bright smile.Jim was amazed. There were the first kind words he had ever heard. He stood still and watched her until she was out of sight.He sat down on a park chair. “Thank you, dear. You are a nice little boy,” he repeated these words many times. He pulled from his pocket a piece of broken mirror and looked at himself. He saw nothing but dirt. He went to a tap and washed his face carefully. Then he looked again. He hardly(几乎不）recognized himself. He looked so nice. A feeling of self-respect rose inside him. At that moment, he made up his mind to be a successful man.Years later, Jim became a successful businessman and helped lots of people in need.回答下面5个问题,每题答案不超过5个词。
