阅读短文,回答短文后的五个问题。
About 10 years ago, when I was a student in college, I was working in a shop near my school. One day, I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair(轮椅).
As I looked at this girl, I saw that she was seated in her chair. I realized she was disabled, without any arms or legs, just a head, a neck and a body. She was wearing a little white dress with red dots.
As the couple pushed her up to me, I was looking down at the cash register. I turned my head towards the girl and gave her a wink. As I took the money from her grandparents, the girl gave me the biggest smile I had ever seen. All of a sudden, her disability disappeared. All I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile gave me a new sense of life. She took me from being a poor, unhappy college student to her world of smiles, love and warmth.
I'm a successful businessman now. Whenever I am down and think about the troubles of the world, I think about that little girl's smile and the life lesson she taught me. Smile is the strongest power!
