A tattoo is a symbol of _________.
A. being a criminal
B. being a slave
C. courage and beauty
D. having low standing in society
According to the DepEd answer key, letter A is the correct answer. (For the love of God…)

Can someone upload a photo of the full, unedited sheet? That whole LETTER A thing covers the rest of it, and we need some context.”
