Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: When I was young we used to pay for haircuts but then money became scarcer . I decided to start doing it myself . I bought a mirror and a pair of scissors . Looking at myself in the mirror , I attempted to cut my hair the way it had been cut before . Then , looking at my hair and the shape of my head in the mirror , I imagined it as if I were looking at a horizon , and I cut anything which rose above the desired horizon . Cutting the back was more difficult . To do this , I had to go by touch since I did not have a second mirror . Feeling with my fingers the newly cut sides of my head that I could see , I cut the hair on the back of my head by pinching it between my fingers at the same level as the previously cut hair . Question: What was being gauged after being combed? Option1: hair color Option2: how long the hair is
Output (English): how long the hair is
