McDonald’s makes a promi se to the people that work for them. They say, “We val ue you, your growi ng skil ls and your hel p to the pany. ”I can se nothi ng but god i f this pany es to bui ld i ts restaurant i n our town. AGAINST BUILDING A MCDONALD’S I am very woried about McDonal d’s buil di ng a restaurant in our hometown. We are a smal m unity and we enjoy our local dishes. I am not sure i f McDonald’s food i s as healthy as they say i n thei r adverti sem ents. When sci enti sts look at i t careful y, they find high l evels of fat, sugar and sal t. Thi s i s very worryi ng. To m any young peopl e are getti ng fat through eati ng too m uch faty food. McDonal d’s i s not gi vi ng young peopl e a good i dea of what a healthy di et shoul d be. Local Chi nese fod, on the other hand, i s ful of fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fish. The food at a McDonal d’s restaurant i s al ways the sam e, so I wonder i f i t is made or brought in from el sewhere. Al though i t is freshly cooked, i t m ust be less healthy than our own local y grown and cooked Chinese food. I al so worry about al those cars bri ngi ng peopl e to buy food at McDonald’s. Fi rst, there woul d be petrol fum es(氣體 ), whi ch wi l make our cl ean ai r di rty. Second, there’s the problem of al l those cars that try to park and prevent other cars from m ovi ng qui ckl y through our town. I’m sure many young peopl e woul d be happy to work for McDonald’s but wi l 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 union? 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 buil d their restaurant i n our town. Unit 3 the mi l ion pound bank note Act I, Scene 3 N arrator: It i s the summ er of 1903. Two ol d and wealthy brothers, Roderick an dOl iver, have made a bet. Ol iver beli eves that wi th a mi li on pound bank note a m an could survive a month i n London. Hi s brother Roderi ck doubts it.

It i s H enry Adams, an Am erican businesm an, who is l ost in London and does not know what he shoul d do. Roderick: Young m an, would you step insi de a m om ent, pl ease? H enry: Who? Me, si r? Roderick: Yes, you. Ol iver: Through the front dor on your l eft. H enry: ( A servant opens a door) Thanks. Servant: Good morni ng, si r. Would you pl ease e in? Perm it m e to l ead the way, si r.

Roderick: I wonder, Mr Adam s, if you’d m ind US aski ng a few questions. Henry: N ot at al. Go right ahead. Roderick: May we ask what you’re doing i n this country and what your pl ans are? Henry: Wel , I can’t say that I have any plans. I’m hoping to fi nd work. As a matter of fact, I l anded in Britai n by aci dent. Ol iver: How i s that possi bl e? H enry: Wel l, you see, back home I had m y own boat. About a m onth ago, I was sail ng out of the bay… ( hi s eyes stare at what i s l eft of the brother’s di ner on tabl e. ) O li ver: Wel l, go on. Henry: O h, yes.
