I grew up knowing I was different, and I hated it. I was born with a cleft palate (豁嘴), and when I started school my classmates made it clear to me how I    1    to others: a little girl with a misshapen lip, crooked nose (鼻子歪斜) and unclear    2    .

Somehow it seemed more    4    to have suffered an accident than to have been    5    different. I was sure that no one outside my family could love me, or    6    like me. Then I entered Mrs. Leonard's second-grade class.
