　　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 get tired of the customers ordering so many different things to eat.

　　“If we give a customer a smaller menu, we can make some of the food before they come, and they won't have to wait so long for their meals,” said one of the brothers. The other brother agreed and said, “And if we make the customers come to the counter, we won't need any waiters or waitresses. We can also use plastic plates so there won't be any washing-up.”

　　These were such good ideas that the McDonald brothers used then, and the customers were very pleased. They got their meals very quickly－in less than a minute and they paid only fifteen cents for hamburgers and ten 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 twenty-seven million dollars. After that, people paid Ray Kroc to open their restaurants using the McDonald's name and menu. Before long, there were McDonald's restaurants 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 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.

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.
