• 2．My senior year of high school was a very hectic one，to say the least．If I wasn't studying or worrying about my grades，I was working on after-class activities．It seemed as if my life had turned into one crazy cloud of confusion and I hoped to find some sort of direction．
     Finally，I got a part-time job at the local coffee shop．I had thought it would be easy and，for the most part，stress-free．I pictured myself pouring coffee and becoming close friends with my customers．
     What I hadn't expected was the people with so many orders．There were moments when I was very angry simply because I couldn't seem to please anyone．There was always too much sugar，too little ice，or not enough skim milk．However，I kept at it．
     One day，one of my customers came in，depressed．Before he left，I handed him a bag along with his iced coffee．He looked at me questioningly because he hadn't ordered anything but the coffee．He opened the bag and saw his favorite doughnut （甜甜圈） I had given him．He smiled and thanked me before heading out into the rain．
     The next evening，he came．Instead of ordering something，he handed me a single pink rose and a note．
     "Thanks for being so sweet and thoughtful yesterday．It is so nice to meet someone who's warm and unselfish．Please don't change your ways because I truly believe that you will do better．Have a great day!"
     As time went on，I did come across some customers really particular．But anytime I felt depressed，I thought of that man and his kindness．Then I would smile，hold my head up high，clear my throat and ask politely， "How can I help you？"
  
  （1）What does the underlined word "hectic" in Paragraph 1 mean？

  
  A．Glad．
  B．Interesting．
  C．Productive．
  D．Busy．
  （2）What can we know about the author's part-time job？

  
  A．It is easy and stress-free．
  B．It is quite busy and challenging．
  C．It doesn't need special skills．
  D．It gives the author a feeling of freshness．
  （3）The customer's note

  ．
  A．showed his thanks to the author．
  B．offered suggestions to the author．
  C．encouraged the author to work harder．
  D．gave an explanation of his condition．
  （4）What does the author want to convey through the passage？

  
  A．Kind words are worth much but cost little．
  B．It is impossible to satisfy everyone in our life．
  C．A small act of kindness can make a big difference．
  D．Our attitude determines our suffering or our freedom．

• 3．Tattoos （文身） are becoming more and more common.But they are not a new thing.Scientists have found some frozen bodies from around 3，000 BC and their skin shows the marks of tattoos.For example，Otzi，the Iceman （the oldest body ever found），was discovered in the mountains of Austria.He had many different lines and crosses tattooed on his back and his knees.
     The most common places to get tattoos are the tops of the arms for men and the bottoms of the backs for women.Any mark can be used but there are some common ideas.Some people like to get animals，like dragons，birds and tigers.Other people like to get something written in a foreign language，so Chinese and Japanese words are common in America and the UK.If you can't read the language，make sure you get someone to check what they represent because the tattoo artist could write anything and you would never know.
     It is a big decision to get a tattoo because they are very difficult to remove.It is possible with expensive laser surgery （激光手术） but this is very painful and amazingly expensive and the skin will never be perfect afterwards.You want to do a test，to see how you look with a tattoo，you can get a temporary tattoo which disappears after about a month.This kind is very popular in India，where people often have them for festivals.
     In some countries，such as Japan and Korea，tattoos are still connected with law-breaking activities and it isn't normal to see a tattoo in public.In many places of Europe and America，most people don't care very much whether you have a tattoo or not，though there are some types of job where they don't like tattoos.But some Presidents of the USA have had them.
  
  （1）What can we know about tattoos from the first paragraph？

  
  A．Some frozen bodies were 3，000 years old.
  B．Tattoos appeared early in human history.
  C．The Iceman was the first man to have tattoos.
  D．People in the past liked different lines and crosses.
  （2）Why should we be careful when we get tattoos of languages？

  
  A．Because tattoos are hard to remove.
  B．Because the places to get tattoos are limited.
  C．Because the meanings of the foreign words are important.
  D．Because the educational level of tattoo artists is unreliable.
  （3）Why are temporary tattoos getting popular？

  
  A．It is not difficult to remove them.
  B．They help make people's skin perfect.
  C．People can have a laser surgery to get them.
  D．They play an important role in some festivals.
  （4）What does the last paragraph tell us？

  
  A．It is impolite to show tattoos in public.
  B．The Japanese are not allowed to get tattoos.
  C．Presidents of the USA support people in getting tattoos.
  D．Tattoos are accepted more easily in some Western countries.
