A

I have a friend called Mark. Last Sunday it was a beautiful day. When it got too hot, Mark rolled up his sleeves. I was very surprised to see that he had a tattoo! Then he told me he has lots of tattoos. He has tattoos on his arms, legs, chest and back. So of course I asked him lots of questions about the tattoos!

“It was ten years ago,” he said, “I remember I was on an island in the middle of the sea. I chose a dolphin tattoo because I wanted to have something about the sea.”

“I liked the idea of doing more designs about the sea. So after the dolphin I had an octopus, and then a starfish. These are on my left leg. Then, over my left arm I had lots of fish swimming together. They took a long time to do. I also have a crab and a lobster too!”

“Most recently I got a mermaid. It was finished two weeks ago. I saw a painting of a beautiful mermaid in a museum. I took a photograph and then decided to get a tattoo. I made the design a little simpler.”

“People ask me if getting a tattoo hurts. It depends. If you feel relaxed then it’s OK. But if you’re tired or nervous then you feel it more. It also depends where on the body the tattoo is done.”

41. Where did the writer find the tattoo?

A. On Mike’s sleeves.   B. On Mike’s arms.  C. On Mike’s body.

42. When was the mermaid done?

A. Ten years ago.   B. Last Sunday.   C. Two weeks ago.

43. Where did he get the idea for the beautiful mermaid?

A. From the sea.

B. From a painting.

C. From the cinema.

44. We can learn from the last paragraph that _______.

A. it’s not good to feel nervous when getting a tattoo

B. people can do anything they like with their tattoos

C. people have different feelings about their tattoos

45. What does “tattoo” mean?
