Thirteen-year-old Cindy had been bullied(欺凌) at school for about two years. Her bag, keys and mobile phone had been stolen. She had also been knocked off her bicycle, kicked and punched(以拳重击).

　　Cindy tried to fight back, but it always seemed to be her, not the bullies, who got into trouble. She became so afraid of going to school that she started to be absent from her classes.

　　Finally, her headmaster set up a special plan, asking students to look after one another. He gave Cindy the courage to play the guitar in a school concert, Which gave Cindy new confidence and helped her respect from the other students. Gradually, the bullying began to stop.

　　Cindy’s story is not uncommon, but help is always there. All students in the UK now have to follow strict bullying policies(政策). There are many charities and organizations giving support to young people, such as BullyingUK and Childine. So remember one very important piece of advice: If you are being bullied, don’t put up with it – tell someone.
