问题     A tattoo may give parents of children with food allergies some peace of mind when they send their kids off to school. Yes, a tattoo—but it’s a【C1】______ one.
    SafetyTat sells colorful stick-on labels and wash-off tattoos that【C2】______ of a nut allergy or provide other important medical information. Michele Welsh, a mother-of-three,【C3】______ the company about five years ago. The idea came to her after she wrote her cell phone number on her kids’ arms with a pen in case they got【C4】______ while at an amusement park. She then thought of her nephew, who has a【C5】______ fatal peanut allergy and how much time her sister-in-law had spent in the emergency room with him.
    What if she could just have a【C6】______ !
    Welsh pointed out that caregivers may remember not to give the child a peanut butter cookie, but【C7】______ they don’t think to look on the packaging of other products. "Sometimes you need something visual to remind others to check the ingredients," she said "And for older kids it’s not as big of a【C8】______ because they know to check the ingredients themselves, but the little kids are still learning."
    However, some have expressed【C9】______ that the labels would draw unwanted attention from schoolyard bullies. "A lot of kids do get bullied at school about their food allergies, so some parents fear that this might give more ammunition to kids," Kevin McGrath, a spokesperson for the American College of Allergy.
    However, he did say that the tattoos "may just be another thing to make parents feel more【C10】______ when sending their children off to a party or picnic or class trip."
A) separated B) warn C) generally D) negotiated
E) apparently F) established G) challenge H) reminder
I) confident J) concerns K) potentially L) remind
M) temporary N) incentive O) radiant [br] 【C1】
选项
答案 M
解析 空格在冠词和代词之间，应为形容词。第2段第1句提及tattoos(纹身)的特点是stick-on(粘贴的)和wash-off(可洗掉的)，可见，此处说的纹身是暂时的而非永久性的，故选用temporary，起到启下的作用，与下文提到的特点保持一致。
