I’m sure you woul d feel m uch heal thi er.” They began to tal k about m enus and bal anced diets. “Accordi ng to m y research, nei ther your restaurant nor mi ne offers a balanced di et, ”expl ai ned Wang Peng. “I don’t offer enough fi bre and you don’t offer enough body–buil di ng and energy–gi ving foods. Perhaps we ought to bine our i deas and provi de a bal anced menu wi th foods ful l of energy and fi bre. ”So that i s what they di d. They served raw vegetabl es wi th the ham burgers and boil ed the potatoes rather than fryi ng them . They served fresh frui t wi th the i ce cream . In this way they cut down the fat and i ncreased the fi bre i n the m eal . Their bal anced diets becam e such a success that before l ong Wang Peng becam e sl im mer and Yong H ui put on m ore wei ght. After som e tim e the two found that thei r busi ness cooperati on had turned i nto a personal one . Final y they got m ari ed and li ved happil y ever after. FOR BUILDING A MCDONALD’S I was exci ted when I heard that our m unity was to have its own McDonal d’s restaurant. I thought about al those young peopl e who woul d not have to go to the next town to buy their favourite burgers and chi ps. McDonal d’s cares about heal thy eati ng too and works with sci enti sts to provi de food that i s of hi gh quali ty, safe and heal thy. It i s al so cheap . They often provi de sal ads as wel as burgers and chi ps. You can al so choose between col a and m il k shakes(奶昔 ). Of course i t al so m eans m ore work for our area that needs jobs badl y. McDonal d’s say they are i nterested in doi ng what i s ri ght for the m unity and bei ng a god nei ghbour. So I think they wi l be concerned about provi di ng parki ng for the cars in our m ain street. Many of our young people wil be only to happy to work for the pany. McDonal d’s m akes a prom i se to the peopl e that work for them. They say, “We val ue you, your growi ng ski l s and your hel p to the pany.”I can see nothi ng but good i f thi s pany es to bui l d its restaurant i n our town. AGAINST BUILDING A MCDONALD’S I am very worri ed about McDonal d’s buil di ng a restaurant in our hom etown. We are a sm al m uni ty and we enjoy our l ocal di shes. I am not sure i f McDonal d’s food i s as heal thy as they say i n thei r adverti sem ents. When sci enti sts l ook at i t careful y, they fi nd hi gh l evel s of fat, sugar and sal t. Thi s i s very worryi ng. Too many young peopl e are geti ng fat through eati ng to m uch fatty food. McDonal d’s i s not gi vi ng young peopl e a good i dea of what a heal thy di et shoul d be. Local Chi nese food, on the other hand, is ful l of fresh vegetabl es and fresh m eat and fi sh. The food at a McDonal d’s restaurant i s al ways the sam e, so I wonder i f it i s m ade or brought in from elsewhere. Although i t is freshl y cooked, i t must be l ess healthy than our own l ocal y grown and cooked Chi nese food. I al so worry about al l those cars bri nging peopl e to buy food at McDonal d’s. Fi rst, there woul d be petrol fumes(氣體 ), whi ch wil l m ake our cl ean ai r di rty. Second, there’s the probl em of al those cars that try to park and prevent other cars from movi ng qui ckl y through our town. I’m sure m any young peopl e woul d be happy to work for McDonal d’s but wil they be treated fai rl y？ In Am eri can, McDonal d’s does not al ow workers’ uni ons to operate i n i ts restaurants and these are peopl e who speak up for the workers. If, as they say, the workers are happy wi th them , why shoul d they fear som e workers joi ni ng a uni on? So when I consi der the food, the cars and the jobs, I thi nk we shoul d not al ow McDonal d’s to bui l d thei r restaurant i n our town.
