There were two Mc Donalds-Mac and Dick-and they were brothers.In 1948 they owned a
restaurant in California.They liked working in the restaurant,but they got tired of the customers (顾客)
ordering so many different things to eat.?
"If we gave customers a smaller menu (菜谱), we could make some of the food before they came,
and they wouldn"t have to wait so long for their meals,"said one of the brothers.The other brother agreed
and said,"And if we made the customers come to the counter (柜台), we wouldn"t need any waiters or
waitresses.We could also use plastic plates so there wouldn"t be any washingup."?
These were such good ideas that the McDonald brothers used them,and the customers were very
pleased.They got their meals very quickly-in less than a minute-and they paid only 15 cents (分) for
hamburgers (汉堡包) and 10 cents for fries (油炸食品). The first McDonald"s restaurant had no seats
for customers to sit on.This meant that people had to take their food away,and that no one had to clean
up any tables after them.?
Then a man called Ray Kroc came to the brothers and asked to buy their business.They agreed to
sell it to him for $27 million.After that,people paid Ray Kroc to open their own restaurants using the
McDonald"s name and menu.Before long,there were McDonald"s restaurants all over the United States,
and nowadays,they are all over the world-even in China and Russia.The most successful McDonald"s
business is in Hong Kong of China.The Hong Kong McDonald"s sells more hamburgers every day than
any other McDonald"s anywhere else in the world.?
McDonald"s restaurants are so successful because children love going to them.They like the food,and
they like the toys and games they can get at McDonald"s.?

Dear Vincent,
I"m a middle school student in Zhejiang , China. My English teacher, Ms. Li gave me your name and
address. I want to be your pen friend.
English is my favourite subject. That"s why I want to practise English with an American student. I also
like art. It"s so interesting and useful. I like history, too. Our history teacher always tells us a lot of
interesting historical stories. We all have a good time in history classes.
In my free time, I enjoy playing computer games. It"s exciting and fun. Do you like it ? I also like to go
to the movies. I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I yesterday. It was a great film. But
I don"t like sports, so I never enjoy P. E. classes.
How about you? What subjects do you like? What do you look like? What do you want to do when
you get older? I hope I can get your letter soon!

Who can help me?
Jenny: Don"t get nervous before you start to listen to something. You need to relax. This will help.
Dr. Smith: The first sentence tells a lot the whole passage. for example, if, at the beginning , you hear
"Welcome back BBC news---", you know you will hear a piece of news, not a children"s
story, or a science report.
Shirley: When you"re listening, try to do some thinking. For example, you can think of the following
questions: What happened? When, Where and how? What was the result (结果) and what did
the speaker want to tell us? In this way, you may understand the passage better.
Josh: It"s important for you to remember some important facts. for example, if the passage is a science
report, you should try to remember its results and how the scientists got them.
对应的解答人配对:

I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along the routes: the
number 49 and the number 16. But by the time the number 16 bus reaches Souk Road. It is always
full, so I can"t get on it. I have to wait for the number 49 because sometimes there are empty seats in
it. The timetable says that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. If this is
true, why do I have to wait half an hour for a us nearly every day?
The rules say that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people
are waiting. Why do the half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop. The
rules say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday
I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. I counted the other passengers as they got
off. There were 129 people.
It is clear that our bus companies break the rules and think little of their passengers. Can nothing be
done to make your service better?
B. a talk
C. a story
D. a letter
B. it is not always full
C. it travels faster
D. it has fewer seats on it
B. One hour
C. Half an hour
D. Nearly a day
B. forty
C. sixty
D. one hundred and twenty-nine
B. no passengers took their buses
C. no buses except the No.49 bus passed Souk Road
D. the writer was always the first to get on the bus
