9.Beef,of course,is the meat from a cow,and probably no food is more popular in the USA than a hamburger made from beef.In the 1960s a businessman named Ray Kroc began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers quickly,so people in a hurry could buy and eat them without waiting.By the end of the 1960s the McDonald's Company was selling hamburgers in a lot of restaurants from California to Maine.Not surprisingly,Ray Kroc became one of the richest businessmen in America.Other business people watched his success.Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants.One company,called"Wendy's"began to compete(竞争) with McDonald's.Wendy's said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald's or anyone else's.The Wendy's Company created the expression"Where's the beef?"to make people believe that Wendy's hamburgers were the biggest.It produced a television advertisement to sell this idea.The Wendy's television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers.The bread that covered the meat was very big,but inside there was only a tiny(极小的) bit of meat.One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef."Where's the beef?"she shouted in a funny voice.These advertisements for Wendy's hamburger restaurants were a success from the first day they appeared on television.As we said,it seemed that everyone began using the expression"Where's the beef?"It was one of the most popular expressions in the USA.

分析 牛肉汉堡在美国很受欢迎,19世纪60年代 Ray Kroc 开始在小饭馆里卖汉堡,人们不用排队.19世纪60年代末麦当劳公司在从加利福尼亚到缅因州的许多餐馆里卖汉堡包.Ray Kroc成为最富有的商人之一.其他商人看到他的成功,有些也开起了自己的汉堡店.一个叫做温迪国际快餐连锁集团开始和麦当劳竞争.温迪的汉堡比麦当劳的大,温迪
用广告词"牛肉在哪里"让人们相信温迪汉堡是最大的,温迪的电视广告上是三个老人在吃汉堡,牛肉上的面包很大,里面牛肉很少,一个女人说她不会吃只有一点点牛肉的汉堡,她喊道:"牛肉在哪?"这个广告让温迪的汉堡店成功了.这也是美国最流行的广告词.
