It was clear that the boy had already used all the money. The lady in front of me said, “Well, I could pay half of that.” I told the boy that I could pay the other half. We dug into our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills (纸币). Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find some change. It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react (反应) with the same mind. All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money.” The cashier didn’t need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me said, “Wait! I didn’t even get a chance to give anything!”

I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this.”

The little boy smiled and thanked us. I left with a good feeling. I saw the love and goodness of others all around me. The woman in front of me smiled and said, “It feels good to give, doesn’t it?” I smiled back and said, “Yes!”

23、   In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue (烤肉) restaurant, then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.

Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks’ sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.

Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise (特许经营) other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches (拱门).

Today McDonald’s is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald’s had over $1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.

A．a drive-in

B．the location the McDonalds chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-in

C．forty years ago there were numerous fast-food restaurants

24、Modern life is impossible without travelling. The fastest way of travelling is by plane. By plane, you can travel in one day to places which it took a month or more to get to a hundred years ago.

Travelling by train is slower than by plane, but it has its advantages. You can see the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining-cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable.

Some people prefer(更喜欢)to travel by sea when possible. You can visit many other countries and different parts of your country on ships. Ships are not as fast as trains or planes, but travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.

Many people like to travel by car. You can travel three or four hundred miles a day, just as you like. You can stop wherever you wish-where there is something interesting to see, at good restaurants where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night.

25、 Dear Captain Lim,

I used to be afraid of flying, but after reading your book, I felt much 【1】(good)every time before I flew. 【2】(read) your book helped me to build up my courage (勇气) to fly. However, I have had this scary 【3】(feel)again since the MH370 incident (事件). Last week, I also read a piece of news that a plane went through severe turbulence (强烈的气流). Most passengers on it were 【4】(scare) and several of 【5】even got hurt. May I know whether this kind of severe turbulence often happens and have you 【6】experienced this kind of situation before? How do pilots usually take 【7】of it? For passengers, it seems that it’s not 【8】to control(控制). But do pilots feel the same or is everything actually controlled by pilots when there’s severe turbulence? I really hope you can answer these 【9】(question). Captain Lim, please help me as I am so afraid 【10】sometimes I can’t sleep after thinking so much about flying.

Thank you very much.

Marissa
