问题 下面是一段关于麦当劳快餐店的对话。
Mike: Let’s go get something to eat. I am starving.
李: 我也有点饿。正好,前面有家麦当劳。
Mike: There is always a McDonald’s up ahead. Everywhere you turn there is another blasted McDonald’s. They are just too convenient. I am just plain sick of seeing the "Golden Arches" everywhere I turn. Do you know that there are over 8,000 McDonald’s restaurants in the U.S. alone and over 11,000 franchises worldwide? By the year 2020, everyone will eat at McDonald’s every day.
李: 反正我爱吃汉堡包。现在全世界好像没有几个地方没有麦当劳,卖出的汉堡包都超过1000亿个了。光中国这几年就建了几百家,小孩都到那儿过生日。当然,也不是每种产品都好吃,可起码都很标准,不管什么时候去吃,汉堡包都是一个样儿。
Mike: Whatever you say. I just don’t think their food is all that great. By the way, do you know that their spokesman, Ronald McDonald, is now recognized by 96% of all American children? They are the largest minimum-wage employers in America and own more real estate than any other company on earth. What is more, they say mat one of every seven American millionaires got their start at McDonald’s.
李: 别说了,我都要饿死了。
Mike: But I just lost my appetite.

选项

答案麦克: 赶紧找点东西吃,我饿坏了。 Li: I am also quite hungry. Hey. There is a McDonald’s up ahead. 麦克: 只要你向前走,总能碰上麦当劳;不管你朝哪看,总能看见一家该死的麦当劳。它们简直也太方便了。无处不在的“金色双拱形”真叫人恶心。你知不知道光美国就有8,000多家麦当劳餐馆,全世界的连锁店超过了11,000家。到2020年,每个人每天都要光顾麦当劳。 Li: I like the burgers anyway. Few places in the world are McDonald’s-free. They have sold more than 100 billion burgers worldwide. In China alone, several hundred McDonald’s restaurants have been set up in recent years, and many children prefer to have their birthday-parties there. Of course, not all their food is good, but at least they are consistent. One burger is completely like the other no matter when you go. 麦克: 随你怎么说,我反正认为那里的饭菜不怎么样。还有,你知不知道美国96%的孩子都认识麦当劳的标志——麦克唐纳大叔?麦当劳是美国最大的最低工资雇主,却拥有比地球上任何公司都多的房地产。更有甚者,据说美国每七个百万富翁中就有一个是从麦当劳起家的。 Li: Give me a break, will you? I am starving. 麦克: 可我已经没有胃口了。
