Many of our young people wi l be onl y too hapy to work for the pany. McDonal d’s m akes a prom ise to the peopl e that work for them. They say,“We value you, your growi ng skil l s and your hel p to the pany. ”I can see nothi ng but good i f this pany es to buil d i ts 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 l m uni ty and we enjoy our l ocal di shes. I am not sure if McDonal d’s food is as heal thy as they say i n thei r adverti sem ents. When scientists l ook at it careful l y, they fi nd hi gh levels of fat, sugar and salt. Thi s is very worryi ng. Too m any young peopl e are getti ng fat through eati ng too m uch fatty 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 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 i s al ways the sam e, so I wonder i f it i s m ade or brought i n from el sewhere. Although i t is freshly cooked, i t m ust be l ess heal thy than our own l ocal l y grown and cooked Chi nese food. I al so worry about al l those cars bri ngi ng people to buy food at McDonal d’s. First, there woul d be petrol fum es( 氣體 ), whi ch wi l m ake our clean ai r dirty. Second, there’s the probl em of al those cars that try to park and prevent other cars from m ovi 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 wi l they be treated fai rl y？ In Ameri 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.
