【英语4级听力】一个新的纹身-A New Tattoo

Kevin Turner wanted to get a tattoo¹. He couldn't wait to get his first one. Tattoos² are expensive. Kevin couldn't afford to go to a professional. "Don't worry," said his friend. "I know a guy who will do it for free". Kevin wasn't sure that was safe. He agreed to it anyways.

 

Kevin asked the tattooist³ to draw a rose on his arm. The tattoo hurt a lot. Kevin couldn't take the pain. He shut his eyes tightly. He did not open them until the tattoo was finished. "What is that?" yelled Kevin. "It's a rose!" said the tattooist. It looked more like a rock to Kevin. He never got a free tattoo again.
