The story below is a true story that happened in September.
During the month of September, a dear friend of mine lost her husband suddenly in an accident. The tragedy was a great shock to everyone.
This accident was sudden and certainly unexpected. It made me realize the fact that you just don’t know when a loved one is no longer going to be with you. We sometimes take our loved ones for granted(當(dāng)然)，and we expect that they will be with us all the time. However, as we all know, life does not work that way and sometimes we get a wake-up call that shocks us and makes us stand back and realize how short life is.
To cheer her up, I tried to imagine if I were in her shoes how I would feel. It was impossible to imagine what she was going through. What words could I say to help her?Sometimes words just can’t express our feelings. Sometimes our actions are much more meaningful than words. So I gave her a hug(擁抱)…
Life is too short, and we should treasure(珍惜) every day staying with our loved ones.

A．in springB．in summerC．in autumnD．in winter

A 機(jī)會           B. 生存        C．悲劇            D. 鬧劇

One day we invited some friends to dinner. When it was about six o’clock, my wife found that we had little bread. So she asked our five-year-old daughter, Kathy, to buy some.
‘Here’s a dollar,’ my wife said, ‘get two loaves of bread, if they have it. If they don’t have it, get anything. But hurry!’
Kathy hurried off, and we waited and waited. By a quarter past six, all the friends had arrived. But Kathy had not returned. Finally we saw her dancing around the corner with a bright new hula hoop（呼啦圈） whirling（旋轉(zhuǎn)） round her middle.
“Kathy!” her mother cried. “Where did you get that hula hoop, and where is the bread?”

There were two McDonalds—Mac and Dick—and they were brothers. In 1948, they owned a restaurant in California, they liked working in the restaurant, but they got tired of the customers ordering so many different things to eat.
“If we gave customers a smaller menu, we could make some of the food before they came, and they wouldn’t have to wait so long for their meals,” said one of the brothers. The other brother agreed and said, “And if we made the customers come to the counter, we wouldn’t need any waiters or waitresses. We could also use plastic plates so there wouldn’t be any washing-up.”
These were such good ideas that McDonald brothers used them, and the customers were very pleased. They got their meals very quickly—in less than a minute—and they paid only 15 cents for hamburgers and 10 cents for fries. The first McDonald’s restaurant had no seats for customers to sit on. This meant that people had to take their food away, and that no one had to clean up any tables after them.
Then a man called Ray Kroc came to the brothers and asked to buy their business. They agreed to sell it to him for＄27 million. After that, people paid Ray Kroc to open their own restaurants using the McDonald’s name and menu. Before long, there were McDonald’s restaurants all over the United States, and nowadays, they are all over the world—even in China and Russia. The most successful McDonald’s business is in Hong Kong of China. The Hong Kong McDonald’s sells more hamburgers every day than any other McDonald’s anywhere else in the world.
McDonald’s restaurants are so successful because children love going to them. They like the food, and they like the toys and games they can get at McDonald’s.
小題1:The McDonald brothers offered customers fewer kinds of foods so that _____.
A．they didn’t need waiters or waitressesB．they could use plastic plates
C．customers could get their meals quicklyD．customers would pay less.
小題2: Customers “paid only 15 cents for hamburgers” means the hamburgers were___.
A expensive     B. new    C. cheap     D. worth a lot less
小題3:. The first McDonald’s customers took their food away because_____.
A．They wanted to eat it quicklyB．they did not want a large menu
C．There were no seats in the restaurantD．they wanted to eat at home
小題4: Nowadays, the owners of McDonald’s restaurants pay for ____.
A．the McDonald’s name and menuB．children to play games
C．people to take the food awayD．customers to eat quickly
小題5:This story mainly tells us ____.
A．a(chǎn) restaurant in California in 1948
B．how Ray Kroc made money for the McDonald brothers
C．where McDonald’s restaurants are in the world.
D．how the McDonald’s business started and grew
