    An Adult Decision   The year before my son turned 18, he constantly1 pleaded2 to be allowed to a tattoo3, 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 masculinity4 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Exercises:
    根据短文判断下列句子正(T)、误(F):
    ① When the son pleaded to be allowed to a tattoo, the mother thought her son was old enough to make an adult decision.
    ② A few days before his birthday, the son came home with a tattoo.
    ③ The mother wondered what symbol her son had chosen.
    ④ The image of Mickey Mouse on the son's shoulder was three inches long.
    ⑤ From the passage, we can see that the son really made an adult decision.
    5.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。
