Ill help you lose weight and be fit in two weeks if you eat here every day.” Then she gave a menu to Wang Peng. There were few
3、choices of food and drink on it: just rice, raw vegetables served in vinegar, fruit and water. Wang Peng was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his restaurant! He could not believe his eyes. He threw down the menu and hurried outside. On his way home he tho

He had better do some research!At the library Wang Peng was surprised to find that his restaurant served far too much fat and Yong Huis
5、 far too little. Even though her customers might get thin after eating Yong Huis food, they were not eating enough energy-giving food to keep them fit. They would become tired very quickly. Wang Peng felt more hopeful as he drove back home. Perhaps with a discount and a new sign he could win his cus
6、tomers back! So he wrote:Want to feel fit and energetic?Come and eat here! Discounts today!Our food gives you energy all day!The competition between the two restaurants was on!COME AND EAT HERE (2)A week later, Wang Pengs restaurant was nearly full and he felt happier. Perhaps he would be able to ea

He smiled as he welcomed some customers warmly at the door but the smile left his face when he saw Yong Hui walking in. She did not look happy but glar
8、ed at him. “May I ask what you were doing in my restaurant the other day? I thought you were a new customer and now I know that you only came only to spy on me and my menu,” she shouted. “Please excuse me,” he calmly explained,“I wanted to know where all my customers had gone last week. I followed o
9、ne of them and found them in your restaurant. I dont want to upset you, but I found your menu so limited that I stopped worrying and started advertising the benefits of my food. Why dont you sit down and try a meal?” Yong Hui agreed to stay and soon they were both enjoying the dumplings and breast o
10、f chicken cooked with garlic. When they were served the ice cream, Yong Hui began to look ill. “I feel sick with all this fat and heavy food,”she said,“I miss my vegetables and fruit.”Wang Peng was enjoying a second plate of dumplings so he sighed.“Yes,”he added,“and I would miss my dumplings and fa
11、tty pork. Dont you get tired quickly?” “Well, I do have to rest a lot, ”admitted Yong Hui. “But dont you think it would be better if you were a bit thinner? Im sure you would feel much healthier.” They began to talk about menus and balanced diets. “According to my research, neither your restaurant n
12、or mine offers a balanced diet,”explained Wang Peng.“I dont offer enough fibre and you dont offer enough bodybuilding and energygiving foods. Perhaps we ought to combine our ideas and provide a balanced menu with foods full of energy and fibre. ”So that is what they did.They served raw vegetables wi
13、th the hamburgers and boiled the potatoes rather than frying them .They served fresh fruit with the ice cream. In this way they cut down the fat and increased the fibre in the meal. Their balanced diets became such a success that before long Wang Peng became slimmer and Yong Hui put on more weight.
14、After some time the two found that their business cooperation had turned into a personal one .Finally they got married and lived happily ever after. FOR BUILDING A MCDONALDSI was excited when I heard that our community was to have its own McDonalds restaurant. I thought about all those young people
15、who would not have to go to the next town to buy their favourite burgers and chips. McDonalds cares about healthy eating too and works with scientists to provide food that is of high quality, safe and healthy. It is also cheap .They often provide salads as well as burgers and chips. You can also cho
16、ose between cola and milk shakes(奶昔). Of course it also means more work for our area that needs jobs badly. McDonalds say they are interested in doing what is right for the community and being a good neighbour. So I think they will be concerned about providing parking for the cars in our main street
17、. Many of our young people will be only too happy to work for the company. McDonalds makes a promise to the people that work for them. They say,“We value you, your growing skills and your help to the company.”I can see nothing but good if this company comes to build its restaurant in our town.AGAINS
18、T BUILDING A MCDONALDSI am very worried about McDonalds building a restaurant in our hometown. We are a small community and we enjoy our local dishes. I am not sure if McDonalds food is as healthy as they say in their advertisements. When scientists look at it carefully, they find high levels of fat
19、, sugar and salt. This is very worrying. Too many young people are getting fat through eating too much fatty food. McDonalds is not giving young people a good idea of what a healthy diet should be. Local Chinese food, on the other hand, is full of fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fish. The food a
20、t a McDonalds restaurant is always the same, so I wonder if it is made or brought in from elsewhere. Although it is freshly cooked, it must be less healthy than our own locally grown and cooked Chinese food.I also worry about all those cars bringing people to buy food at McDonalds. First, there woul
21、d be petrol fumes(气体),which will make our clean air dirty. Second, theres the problem of all those cars that try to park and prevent other cars from moving quickly through our town. Im sure many young people would be happy to work for McDonalds but will they be treated fairly?In American, McDonalds
22、does not allow workers unions to operate in its restaurants and these are people who speak up for the workers. If, as they say, the workers are happy with them ,why should they fear some workers joining a union?So when I consider the food, the cars and the jobs, I think we should not allow McDonalds
23、 to build their restaurant in our town.Unit 3the million pound bank noteAct I, Scene 3Narrator: It is the summer of 1903. Two old and wealthy brothers, Roderick an dOliver, have made a bet. Oliver believes that with a million pound bank note a man could survive a month in London. His brother Roderic

Go right ahead.Rode
27、rick: May we ask what youre doing in this country and what your plans are?Henry: Well, I cant say that I have any plans. Im hoping to find work. As a matter of fact, I landed in Britain by accident. Oliver: How is that possible?Henry: Well, you see, back home I had my own boat. About a month ago, I
28、was sailing out of the bay ( his eyes stare at what is left of the brothers dinner on table.)Oliver: Well, go on.Henry: Oh, yes. Well, towards nightfall I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind. It was all my fault. It didnt know whether I could survive until morning. The next morning Id j
29、ust about given myself up for lsot when I was spotted by a ship.Oliver: And it was the ship that brought you to England.Henry: Yes. The fact is that I earned my passage by working as an unpaid hand, which accounts for my appearance. I went to the American embassy to seek help, but ( The brothers smi
30、le at each other.)Roderick: Well, you mustnt worry about that. Its an advantage.Henry: Im afraid I dont quite follow you, sir.Roderick: Tell us, Mr Adams, what sort of work did you do in America.Henry: I worked for a mining comapany. Could you offer me some kine of work here?Roderick: Patience, Mr A
31、dams. If you dont mind, may I ask you how much money you have?Henry: Well, to be honest, I have none.Oliver: (happily) What luck! Brother, what luck! (claps his hands together)Henry: Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me! On the contrary, in fact. If this is you idea of some knd of joke, I do
32、nt think its very funny. ( Henry stands up to leave) Now if youll excuse me, I think Ill be on my way.Roderick: Please dont go, Mr Adams. You mustnt think we dont care about you. Oliver, give him the letter.Oliver: Yes, the letter. (gets it from a desk and gives it to Henry like a gift ) The letter.
33、Henry: (taking it carefully) For me?Roderick: For you. (Henry starts to open it) Oh, no, you mustnt open it. Not yet. You cant open it until two oclock.Henry: Oh, this is silly.Roderick: Not silly. Theres money in it (calls to the servant) James ?Henry: Oh, no. I dont want your charity. I just want
34、an honest job.Roderick: We know youre hard-working. Thats why weve given you the letter. James, show Mr Adams out.Henry: Well, why dont you explain what this is all about?Roderick: Youll soon know. (looks at the clock) In exactly an hour and a half.Servant: This way, sir.Roderick: Mr Adams, not unti

It was warm last Sunday, so I went and sat on the river bank as usual. Some children were playing games on the bank and ther
37、e were some people rowing on the river. Suddenly, one of the children kicked a ball very hard and it went towards a passing boat. Some people on the bank called out to the man in the boat, but he did not hear them. The ball struck him so hard that he nearly fell into the water. I turned to look at t
38、he children, but there werent any in sight: they had all run away! The man laughed when he realized what had happened. He called out to the children and threw the ball back to the bank.
