One day, little Tom met his old friend, little Barry. Different from little Barry's 1 hair, little Tom had curly hair. Little Tom loved little Barry's 2 very much, so he went to Miss White's barbershop (理发店).
"Miss White, I want to have a new hairstyle (发型)," little Tom said.
"You have beautiful hair.3 do you want to change?" Miss White asked.
"Because I love my friend's nice straight hair more," little Tom said and 4 her a photo of little Barry.
"OK," Miss White said.
Then Miss White spent three hours 5 little Tom's hair straight. He was happy at first, but when he stood 6 the mirror (镜子) and saw his new hairstyle, he didn't like it.
"It 7 all the hair stand (直立) on my head. That's terrible," little Tom said.
Miss White asked, "What kind of hairstyle do you want?"
"I don't want a curly one or a straight one," little Tom said.
Little Tom didn't know what to do and ran back home. He was 8 to meet his friends because he thought they were sure to laugh at (嘲笑) 9 . Little Tom's mother came to him and said, "Embrace (拥抱) your own beauty as this is your unique gift (独一无二的礼物)."
Then little Tom went to the barbershop again. And he asked Miss White to have his curly hair back. Three hours later, he went back home 10 .
Now, little Tom loves his curly hair best.
