     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.?
1. The McDonald brothers offered (提供) customers fewer kinds of foods so that              .
A. they didn't need waiters or waitresses

Meeting the English Family

　　Rosa and her classmates were in a street in West London. The sky was dark. This was Rosa's big day, her first day in England.

　　Rosa got out of a taxi. The driver carried a very heavy bag for her. They walked through the rain to the front door of a big Victorian house.

　　A small girl opened the door. She was four years old. Her brother stood behind her. He was only two years old. One minute later, a young woman came to the door.

　　“Welcome to Wembley!” she said and she offered Rosa her hand. “These are my two children, Elisabeth and Isaac” “Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Frost! said Rosa with a strong Spanish accent.

　　The two children ran back into the living room.

　　“Don't worry about them! They're a little shy. And please call me Diana! Now let me show you your room and then we can have a nice cup of tea. Or would you like some coffee?”

　　“I'd like to try a cup of English tea, made in England.”

　　“This is your bedroom. There's a nice view (视野) of the football stadium (露天体育场) and here's a little desk where you can study. The bathroom and toilet are just opposite your door. Now I'll go and put the kettle on.”

　　“Excuse me. What's a kettle?”

　　“In England, we use a kettle to make hot water, we can then put the hot water in a teapot or use it to make coffee.”

　　Rosa was happy with her new home, but she was a little puzzled (困惑的). Perhaps her mother Maruja was right. The British were not normal people. They did not kiss when they met and they lived in large Victorian palaces. Their favourite drink was tea and they used strange metal kettles to make the water hot. What was she going to say to Elisabeth and Isaac? How could she make friends with two shy English children? Perhaps the answer was in the big, black psychology (心理学) book.

From the time we were babies we have been taught manners. We are taught how to hold a knife and fork and not to talk with our mouths full. We are taught how to shake hands and when to stand and when to sit and the way to introduce people.

Sometimes good manners in one place are very bad manners somewhere else. Almost everywhere eating together means that people are very friendly to each other. But in parts of Polynesia（波利尼西亚）it is bad manners to be seen eating beside each other. So they politely turn their backs to each other when they are taking food.

Some East Africans spit four times as a kind of blessing（祝福）.They do it to show that they want a sick person to get well，or to bless a new-born baby. In most other places，spitting means something completely different. It usually shows an unhealthy habit. In many countries，it may mean that you hate someone.

When we go to visit someone we say “ Hello！” Or “ How are you ? ” or things like that.

But if you are visiting an East African village , everyone will be very careful not to pay attention to you, The polite thing there will be for you to go quietly，without speaking to anyone, and sit beside your friend. You should wait until he has finished what he is doing and then he will begin talking to you.

In a village in Arab , a visitor will walk behind all the tents until he gets to the one he wants to visit. If he passes in front , he will be invited into each tent and asked to eat. It is rude to refuse.
