I fol owed one of them and found them i n your restaurant. I don’t want to upset you, but I found your m enu so l im ited that I stopped worrying and started adverti si ng the benefits of m y food. Why don’t you sit down and try a m eal ?” Yong H ui agreed to stay and son they were both enjoyi ng the dum pli ngs and breast of chi cken cooked wi th garl i c.

FOR BUILDING A MCDONALD’S I was exci ted when I heard that our m uni ty 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 thei r favouri te burgers and chi ps. McDonal d’s cares about heal thy eati ng too and works wi th sci entists 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 i n doi ng what i s ri ght for the m unity and bei ng a good nei ghbour. So I thi nk they wil l be concerned about provi di ng parki ng for the cars i n our mai n street. Many of our young peopl e wil l be onl y too happy to work for the pany. McDonal d’s m akes a promi se to the peopl e that work for them . They say, “We val ue you, your growi ng skil ls and your hel p to the pany. ”I can see nothi ng but good i f thi s pany es to buil d i ts restaurant in our town.

I am not sure i f McDonal d’s food i s as heal thy as they say i n thei r advertisem ents. When sci enti sts l ook at i t careful ly, they fi nd high l evel s of fat, sugar and sal t. This i s very worrying. Too m any young peopl e are getti ng fat through eati ng too m uch fatty food. McDonal d’s is not gi ving 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, i s ful of fresh vegetabl es and fresh m eat and fi sh. The food at a McDonal d’s restaurant is al ways the sam e, so I wonder if i t i s m ade or
