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 , and 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 untilthey met Ray Kroc . Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954 , when hewas selling milk shake - mixing machines .

关于 英语 阅读 理解 的 练习 题 及 答案 Passage Three ( Pop Stars Earn Much ) Pop stars today enjoy a style of living which was once theprerogative only of Royalty . Wherever they go , people turn outin their thousands to greet them . The crowds go wild trying tocatch a brief glimpse of their smiling , colorfully dressed idols . The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven Rolls - Royces , private helicopters or executive aeroplanes . They aresurrounded by a permanent entourage of managers , press agentsand bodyguards . Photographs of them appear regularly in thepress and all their comings and goings are reported , for , likeRoyalty , pop stars are news . If they enjoy many of theprivileges of Royalty , they certainly share many of theinconveniences as well . It is dangerous for them to makeunscheduled appearances in public . They must be constantlyshielded from the adoring crowds which idolize them . They areno longer private individuals , but public property . Thefinancial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot becalculated , for their rates of pay are astronomical . And why not ? Society has always rewarded its topentertainers lavishly . The great days of Hollywood have becomelegendary : famous stars enjoyed fame , wealth and adulation onan unprecedented scale . By todays standards , the excesses ofHollywood do not seem quite so spectacular . A singlegramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royaltiesthan the films of the past ever did . The competition for thetitle Top of the Pops is fierce , but the rewards are trulycolossal . It is only right that the stars should be paid in this way . Dont the top men in industry earn enormous salaries for theservices they perform to their companies and their countries ? Pop stars earn vast sums in foreign currency often more thanlarge industrial concerns and the taxman can only be gratefulfro their massive annual contributions to the exchequer . So whowould begrudge them their rewards ? Its all very well for people in humdrum jobs to moanabout the successes and rewards of others . People who makeenvious remarks should remember that the most famous starsrepresent only the tip of the iceberg . For every famous star , there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living . A manworking in a steady job and looking forward to a pension

一 、 英语 阅读 （ 日常 生活 类 ） 1 ． 阅读 理解 Have you ever wanted to achieve a goal and ended up doing lots of research on how to achieve it ? As you learned more and more . It seemed you knew less and less . That is because when you learned a new concept （ 概念 ） . You found that there was a lot more to know about it . Usually , people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea .

Passage Twenty - one ( The Result of the Falling US Dollar ) Like a ticking time bomb , the falling dollar has grabbed the attention of Japan and West Germany , forcing them to consider adopting economic polices the United States advocates . The U . S . government wants the dollar to fall because as the dollar declines in value against the yen and Deutsche mark , U . S . good becomes cheaper . U . S . com panies then sell more at home and abroad , and U . S . trade deficit declines . Cries for trade protection abate , and the global free - trade system is preserved . Then , the cheaper dollar makes it cheaper for many foreign investors to snap up U . S . stocks . That prompts heavy buying from abroadespecially from Japan . Also , if the trade picture is improving , that means U . S . com panies eventually will be more competitive . Consequently , many investors are buying shares of export - oriented U . S . com panies in anticipation of better profits in the next year or so . But that is a rather faddish notion right now ; if corporate earnings are disappointing in interest rates , the stock market rally could stall . Improving U . S . com petitiveness means a decline in anotherscompetitiveness . Japan and West Germany are verging on recession . Their export - oriented economies are facing major problems . Japan is worried about the damage the strong yen will do to Japanese trade . West Germany is also worried . Share prices in Frankfurt plummeted this past week . Bonn is thought to be considering a cut in interest rates to boost its economy . Could the falling dollar get out of hand ? If the dollar falls too far , investors might lose confidence in U . S . investmentsespecially the government bond market . The money to finance the federal budget and trade deficits could migrate elsewhere . Inflation could flare up , too , since Japanese and German manufacturers will eventually pass along price hikesand U . S . com panies might follow suit to increase their profit margins . The U . S . federal Reserve then might need to step in andstabilize the dollar by raising interest rates . And higher interest rates could cause the U . S . economy to slow down and end the Wall Street Rally . Worried about these side effects , Federal Reserve chairman Paul Volcher has said the dollar has fallen far enough . What is the equilibrium level ? Probably near wh

When IBM announced an overhaul of its pension plan foremployees in America last week , it joined a parade of employersthat are shifting more responsibility for saving for retirementon to workers . For many Americans , of course , this is nothingnew : millions of them have been managing their retirementassets in individual accounts for years . Nevertheless , in bothAmerica and Britain the closure of paternalistic corporatedefined benefit programmes , in which pensions depend onearnings and years of service , is acceleratingeven at healthycompanies such as IBM . To the extent that this creates andencourages individual choice and responsibility , it is somethingto welcome rather than to fear . Many other countries , facinghuge statepension obligations , would also like to see theircitizens assume a bigger role in providing for their ownretirement . Even so , the trend raises an important question : how muchdo people due to take on these new responsibilities know aboutbasic financial concepts ? The answer seems to be ; not much , and less than they think they do . Studies show that manypeople overestimate their knowledge of everything frominflation to risk diversification and compound interest . Onesurvey in Australia found that 37 % of people who ownedinvestments did not know that they could fluctuate in value . InAmerica 31 % did not know that the finance charge on a credit - card - statement is what they pay to use credit . Britains FinancialServices Authority will release the results of its own survey onfinancial literacy in the next month or two . Even educatedprofessionals may know the basics but see no need to keep up todatehaving no idea of the interest rates on their credit cards , the fees on their mutual funds or how their investments aredoing . But in both America and Britain low personal savingrates and record numbers of personal bankruptcies do not bodewell . If people are to take charge of their pensions , shouldntthey know a little more ? In the end , ignorance could rebound ongovernments : if people save too little for old age , the state mayhave to provide for them willy - nilly . Governments are taking this very seriously . says BarbaraSmith of the Organisation for Economic Co - operation andDevelopment , which recently produced a report on globalfinancial literacy . Just this week the British go
