“On my ________ day of school, many classmates thought that I was a girl with long hair. I told them I was a boy, but they still called me a girl. I was really ________ but I didn’t cry,”Guangnian said.

________ he was faced with teasing（嘲笑）, Guangnian never thought of giving up, even when his mother tried several times to ask him to have his hair cut short.
