“Excuse me,” said a young man, standing shyly at the open church door. “I’m here to pick up an Easter basket for my daughter. Am I in the right place?” Well, we have baskets, but they’re not Easter baskets for kids; they’re food baskets,” I explained.
That morning I arrived at St. Micheal’s Church in Carmichael, California, to help give out the baskets to needy families for Easter. To make sure every family would receive one, we had handed out numbers to them that matched the basket they were supposed to receive. Each one contained a whole ham, potatoes, bread, vegetables, and a pie --- enough food to help feed a family for a week.
“Why don’t you come in?” I said to the man. He looked disappointed. He shook his head and said, “I can’t... My daughter is waiting for me over there. I’m grateful for the food, but when I heard you were giving away baskets for Easter ... well, I thought they would be Easter baskets for children.” He continued, “I promised my daughter one, and I wanted to surprise her.”
I felt bad, but there was nothing I could do. The man handed me his number, and I walked over to the baskets. A bulge(凸起) in one of the baskets caught my eye. “What is that?” I wondered. Leaning over and looking more closely, I could see, unmistakably, an Easter basket --- filled with candy, chocolate, and Easter eggs. One of the volunteers must have added it by mistake! I thought. Then I looked at the man’s number in my hand. Well, he’ll be....
“Happy Easter,” I said to the man, handing him the only food basket with an Easter basket inside --- the very same basket with his number on it. “Someone knew just what you needed.”
【小题1】The young man had thought that ____________.
| A．he would have an Easter basket and a food basket |
| B．there would be Easter baskets for children. |
| C．there would be children’s toys in the food basket |
| D．he would get enough food for the whole year. |

| C．He went there to meet the young man. |
| D．He was a volunteer who helped there. |
| A．he was told not to take a food basket |
| B．there was little food in the Easter basket |
| C．he came so late that all the basket had been given out |
| D．he was told that he wouldn’t get what he wanted |
| A．there was an Easter basket in the food basket |
| B．someone knew what the young man needed |
| C．one of the baskets was filled with more bread than others |

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.
【小题1】The McDonald brothers offered customers fewer kinds of foods so that _____.
| A．they didn’t need waiters or waitresses | B．they could use plastic plates |
| C．customers could get their meals quickly | D．customers would pay less. |
| A．They wanted to eat it quickly | B．they did not want a large menu |
| C．There were no seats in the restaurant | D．they wanted to eat at home |
| A．the McDonald’s name and menu | B．children to play games |
| C．people to take the food away | D．customers to eat quickly |
| A．a 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 |
