成年人的抉择
The year before my son turned 18， he constantly pleaded to be allowed to a tattoo， but I refused to sign permission for one. He argued that soon he would be a man and he should be able to make adult decisions. Sure enough， a few days after his 18th birthday， he come home with a tattoo. Although I was not happy about this， I was curious to see what symbol of masculinity he had chosen. There， on his shoulder， was a two-inch image of Mickey Mouse.
Notes：
（1） constantly adv. 不断地
（2） tattoo n. 文身
（3） permission n. 允许
（4） masculinity n. 阳性，男性
（5） image n . 形象，肖像
（6） Mickey Mouse 米老鼠

② A few days before his birthday， the son came home with a tattoo.

成年人的抉择
我儿子十八岁前的那一年，他常常向我提出准许他文身。但我拒绝允许他这样做。他争辩说他不久就要成为男子汉了，并说他应该能够作出成年人的抉择了。果然，十八岁生日的几天后，他文了身，回到家里。尽管我对此感到不高兴，但出于好奇，我想看看他选择了什么雄性象征物。原来是他在肩上文了一个两英寸长的米老鼠像。
练习参考答案：
① F ② F ③ T ④ F ⑤ F
