Tattoos (紋身) and body piercings (穿孔) have moved up on the trend list in recent years.

    Around Western schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and “flesh ink” (紋身).As with all other subjects, the Chinese will surely have to deal with this situation with respect to their children.To get a better view of what has happened in the West, let’s sit down and hear what they say.

Tiara from Indiana:

I personally think body piercing is sickening.If there were supposed to be holes in your body, you would have been born with them.I do, however, think that ear piercing, is not wrong.There is a difference between ear piercing and belly button (肚臍) piercing.Ear piercing is not nearly as  dangerous.I would be sick if someone stuck a needle in my belly button.

Lee from Illinois:

Hi! I live in Illinois.I am 23.I have 12 tattoos and three piercings.I love my tattoos and  consider myself an art collector.You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs-up on  my art work.People on the street stop me to look at the tattoo on my leg.Most of them don’t  know what it is.They just think the work itself is great.

Subotai from Califomia:

I’m not against self-expression, but when I see high school students getting these piercing, I really wonder.In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion.A friend of mine tried piercing her own tongue with a safety pin.It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow’s.

Jackson from Ohio:

    I don’t think it’s wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything—I think that’s ridiculous.People who get the big dragons that cover your whole body—I don’t think that’s necessary.When I see naked chicks on guys, I think.“You have no respect for women.”

Brittney from New York:

The Platform Shoe

     James was a curious young man. Everywhere he went, he liked to observe things and to ___36___ people, what they did, and what they wore. ___37___ he was making sudden ___38___ all the time. He couldn’t really help it, and it just happened.

     For example, he saw a man whose __39__was covered in tattoos(紋身).That man was __40___ and walked with pride. James imagined him __41___ people up, sometimes with poles and sometimes with his hands, speaking __42__ words each time he opened his mouth. Many gang members with tattooed body perhaps, James thought to himself.

     Sometimes James felt guilty for __43___ others this way, but that feeling was __44__ and never really lasted.

     Then, one time, he saw a woman ___45__ alone in a bar. The woman was middle-aged, quite fat, and although she was not ___46___, James could tell she was a short lady. As usual, James glanced across at her. As his eyes reached her ___47___, he got a shock.

     There she was, on her left foot, wearing a ___48___ shoe that was at least 3 inches high. How could such a little middle-aged lady who was ___49__ be so vain as to wear such high platforms? Look ___50___? In that short moment of time, __51__ thoughts flowed through James’ mind.

     A second later, James’ eyes __52___ moved across to the lady’s right foot. And there, he got an even bigger __53___-----it was a flat shoe. She was not vain; she was just a disabled woman. If anything, she deserved __54___, certainly not blame, not even mental blame.

I'd been travelling for long hours on a lonely country road when I had a flat tire. So I had to stop and get the tools to  36 the problem. It certainly wasn’t  37 doing this with a white shirt and suit on.
Nightfall was approaching. Suddenly a car pulled  38 from behind me. A man got out and offered to  39 me. Seeing his unpleasant appearance and tattoos(紋身)on his arm, I became  40 as thoughts of robberies flashed through my mind. But  41 I could say anything he had already begun to take the tools to change the  42 . While watching him I happened to look back at his car and noticed someone sitting in the passenger seat. This had  43 me.
Then, without  44 , it began to rain. He suggested that I wait in his car because my car was unsafe. As the rain increased, getting us wet within seconds, I  45 agreed. When I settle into the back seat, a woman’s voice came from the front seat. “Are you all right?” She turned around to me. “Yes, I am.’’ I replied with much  46  when seeing an old woman there. It must be his Mom, I thought. To my  47 , the old woman was a neighbor of the man who was helping me. “Jeff insisted on stopping when he saw you  48 with the tire. ”“I am grateful for his help, ” I said. “Me, too!” she said with a smile. He helped drive her to see her husband twice a week in a nursing home. She also said that he  49 at the church and tutored disadvantaged students.
The rain stopped and Jeff and I changed me tire. I tried to offer him money and of course he  50 it. It was shameful that I judged people by the way they  51 . As we shook hands I began to apologize for my  52 . He said, ‘‘I experience that same  53 often. People who look like me don’t do nice things. I  54 thought about changing the way. But then I saw this as a chance to make a  55 . So I’ll leave you with the same question I ask everyone who takes time to know me. If Jesus returned tomorrow and walked among us again, would you recognize Him by what He wore or by what He did?’’

B
Piercings(穿洞)have moved up on the trend list in recent Tattoos(紋身)and body years. Around Western schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and flesh ink. Like all other subjects, we’ll surely be faced with such situation. To get a better view of what has happened in the West, let’s sit down and hear what they say.
Kerstin Otto from Washington:
The hotter it gets and the more layers of clothing disappear, the more tattoos and piercings appear on various places of the human body, I wouldn’t be caught dead with a snake tattooed on my ankle or with a piece of metal stuck in my belly button.
Tiara from Indiana:
I personally think body piercing is sickening. If there were supposed to be holes in your body, you would have been born with them. I do, however, think that ear piercing, is not wrong.  There is a difference between ear piercing and belly button piercing. Ear piercing is not nearly as dangerous. I would be sick if someone stuck a needle in my belly button.
Lee from Illinois:
Hi! I live in Illinois. I am 23. I have 12 tattoos and three piercings. I love my tattoos
and consider myself an art collector. You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs-up on my art work. People on the street stop me to look at that on my leg. Most of them don’t know what it is. They just think the work itself is great.
Nagib from Washington:
I wanted an earring. My friends had them and it looked like a cool thing. I wanted to get a nose ring, but my mum wouldn’t let me. Now I’m glad I didn’t get it. I just wanted a little stud, but I wouldn’t have looked good with it.
Jackson from Ohio:
I don’t think it’s wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything —I think that’s ridiculous. People who get the big dragons that cover your whole body—I don’t think that’s necessary. When I see naked chicks on guys, I think. “You have no respect for women.”
Brittney from New York:
You don’t want to do stuff to your body. You don t need to do that because you were made perfect. You don’t need to add piercings. If it will make you feel beautiful and you really feel like you need to do it for yourself, then okay. If it really makes a big difference impacting your self-esteem and how you are towards others, then do it. But otherwise, don’t mess with what you got. Maybe you should try something more substantial(充實(shí)的)to find beauty in yourself.
60. Who is wholeheartedly lost in tattoos and piercing?
A. Tiara           B. Kerstin           C. Nagib.           D. Lee.
61. Who doesn’t think tattoos and piercing are beautiful?
A. Jackson.          B. Brittney.           C. Tiara.           D. Nagib.
62. We can conclude that ________.
A. tattoos and piercing are a new kind of elegant art
B. all the teachers in the West are in favor of tattoos and piercing
C. everything is changeable with time going on
D. it is necessary to live with all different views of beauty
63. The best title for this passage is probably _________.
A. Body Art or Damage                    B. Damage to the Youth’s Body
C. Young People’s Different Curiosities       D. A Great Anxiety About Young People
