Section II Reading Comprehension 囚Read伽passage.Then answer the questions that follow. (5 points eaω An Ancient Art A Although tattoos seem like a recent fad in the U nited States, they actua11y have a long history as a form of body decoration. In some cultures, they were considered beautiful works of art. Ancient tribes in J apan and China, clans in northern Europe, and religious groups around the Mediterranean a11 wore tattoos. The word probably comes from ‘tatu' , meaning \"to mark\" in Tahitian, the language of an island in the South Pacific. B In the 1700s, when Captain James Cook sailed from England to the South Pacific, many of his sailors got tattoos. They went back to Europe and showed them to others, and this practice becam巳commonamong seamen. They enthusiastica11y accepted the painful experience to bring artwork back home on their bodies. From sailors, this custom gradual1y spread to the upper class in Europe, and in the 1800s, it was a custom for rich gentlemen to travel to the Pacific islands and Asia to get tattooed by famous artists. In fact, many of the males in the royal families of Europe-princes and kings--had tattoos. C At that time, tattooing was sti11 done by hand, that is, artists made tiny holes in the skin with a needle or other sharp object. Then they put ink of different colors into the holes, according to a design. Nowadays, artists use electric tattoo machines, which make hundreds of holes at once, automatica11y pushing the ink into the skin. What used to be a long painful process takes rnuch less tirne, although it still hurts! After a few days, depending on the siz巳ofthe tattoo, th巳skinh巳als，or gets better, and the ta ttoo can be distinguished. D In the past decade, ma口yyoung people in the U nited States have started getting tattoos, bringing this ancient art form to life again. A third of Am巳ricansin their 20s have tattoos, while a fourth of thos巳intheir 30s have thern. Tattoos are more common in Western countries, wh巳reabout 20 % of the population has at least on巳tattoo.Is this a tr巳ndor just a fad? lf we look at history, we can probably call it a long-terrn fad. ln the 19th century, tattoos were fashionable for a few d巳cad巳s，and who knows? They may continue to be popular for rnany years to corne. 1031 提醒：电大资源网已将该科目2010年到2019年1月的历届试题
