Fast-food restaurants are very popular in the United States. They are popular because the service is fast and the prices are low. Of all the fast-food restaurants, McDonald’s is probably the most famous and the most popular.
Richard and Maurice McDonald, the original owner of McDonald’s, opened their first self-service restaurant in San Bernadino, California. People would come from everywhere to buy their French fries and hamburgers. Workers would buy their lunches at McDonald’s because the hamburgers and French fries tasted better than their lunches from home.
By 1960, the McDonald brothers owned 228 self-service restaurants. Then, in 1960, Ray Kroc, a 56-year-old salesman, bought the name and most of the restaurants for 2.7 million dollars.
He then began to build new restaurants, and, by 1982, he owned about 7,063. Of those restaurants, about 1,283 were in other countries: Japan, West Germany, England, and Australia. That same year, McDonald’s Corporation earned about 7 million dollars.
McDonald’s is a big business, but it is not too big or too rich to help ordinary people. For example, owners of restaurants participate in special community programs for children or senior citizens.
The corporation owns special houses near children’s hospitals. These Ronald McDonald houses are for sick children and their parents. Sometimes a child has to go stay at a hospital for several weeks or months. Then the child’s parents can stay at a Ronald McDonald house. Staying at these houses is cheaper than staying at hotels and the atmosphere is friendlier and more homelike.
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. Who opened the first McDonald’s restaurant?
27. What community programs does McDonald’s participate in?
28. How much money did McDonald’s Corporation earn in 1982?
选项
A、Programs for children and the old.
B、Programs for children and the sick.
C、Programs for children and minority groups.
D、Programs for children and important patients.
答案
A
解析
选项均以Programs for children and…开头表明,本题可能考查与儿童和…有关的项目,听音时应留意该项目的另一些对象是谁。短文中提到For example,owners of restaurants participate in...programs for children or senior citizens,[A]中的the old与senior citizens对应,故答案为[A]。
