are permanent pictures drawn on the body using colored ink. tattoos are often used to show ones skin and beliefs. however tattoos and other kinds of body art are also used for very important and ceremonial reasons.the most widely used form of body art is henna(花染料) painting. painting the body with henna is practiced in a number of asian and african countries. the leaves of the henna plant are used to paint the skin a reddish-brown color .people in morocco, a country africa, use henna paint to protect themselves from evil spirits and prevent bad luck. in sudan, henna represents happiness. sudanese women paint henna on their bodies and hair to show how much they love their husbands. the more henna painting on a woman, the more she loves her husband. men in sudan also paint their bodies with henna leaves on their wedding day. henna painting is an old tradition, but nowadays it is also becoming popular in some other parts of the world.in india ,people also use henna to paint beautiful and detailed patterns on their bodies. this art form has been practiced in india for centuries ,mainly among women. it is commonly seen at indian celebrations, and brides will have their hands and feet painted a few days before their wedding. traditionally, the darker the paint is, the longer their love for their husband will last. the color rubs off after some time, so it is important for the women to paint themselves as dark as possible. some young women in western countries have become interested in it as a way to make themselves beautiful. in this way, traditional art forms become popular in modern society. in australia, the aboriginals use colored clay to paint their faces and bodies for special dances and celebrations. for them, body art is an important part of celebrations. they also use body art to communicate and to express their creativity. in fact, the same kind of clay is also used to make art in caves and on rocks.some cultures have been practicing body art for thousands of years. learning about these unique forms of cultural expressions is an interesting way of finding about other cultures and societies.28.according to paragraph 1,what are tattoos?a. an indian art b. a modern invention c. a form of body art d. permanent colored ink29.where do sudanese people paint henna?a. on their faces only b. on their hair and bodies c. on their hair only d. on peoples bodies during dances30.brides in india paint their bodies_.a. to show their love b. to keep them safe c. to make them popular d. to enjoy special dances31. which of the following statements is true?a. in morocco, people use henna painting to express their creativity.b. sudanese men and women paint themselves only before wedding day.c. in india, people use henna to paint their bodies because it can last forever.d. australian aboriginals use the same clay on their bodies and in their artwork.dthere was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the united states often ended with a seemingly simple question from the cashier:“paper or plastic?” well, which type of bag would you choose?while all types of bags have some influence on the environment, it has long been supposed that paper bags are kinder. they are made from a renewable source, break down easily, burn without giving off thick smoke and can be recycled. however, the producing process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones. how can this be true?studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. and the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher. besides, the influence on forests is very serious. it takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags, which happens to be the number of bags used in the united states yearly. in terms of recycling, the idea that paper bags are more environment-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded. research shows it requires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper.even though paper bags might be more harmful than plastic ones, plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two. in ireland, for example, a tax has been introduced to discourage the use of plastic bags. people have to pay 22 cents for every plastic bag, and as a result, their use has dropped quickly.theres no doubt that it makes more sense to reuse these bags. however, we dont seem to be doing that at present. that may be because they fall apart quickly. if so, cloth bags are a better choice, but still, their production also has a bad influence on the environment. so what to do? how should we answer the question of “paper or plastic?” it seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question: “what can i do to help the environment?”32. the questions in paragraph 1 are used to .a. express the authors doubtsb. tell readers how to save moneyc. introduce points for discussiond. show the kindness of the cashier33. compared with plastic bags, paper bags .a. need more water to produceb. require less energy to recyclec. take more time to break downd. have less influence on forests34. the underlined word “discarded” in paragraph 3 probably means “ ”.a. sharedb. given up c. discussedd. put forward35. which question does the author probably hope the cashier will ask?a. paper or cloth?b. paper or plastic?c. a small bag or big one?d. a new bag or your own one?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。yawn! if you often feel too tired in the mornings, even if youre getting
