日常聊天口語(yǔ)對(duì)話14篇:(12)千萬(wàn)漢堡100 Billion Burgers

Mike:: Let's go get something to eat.

Emi: Oh, I'm starving. hey, there's a McDonald's up ahead.

Mike: There's always a McDonalds up ahead. Everywhere you turn there's another blasted McDonald's.

Emi: What's wrong with that? Hey, they're convenient.

Mike: They're too convenient! Anything would be convenient if it could be found on every street corner. I'm just plain sick of seeing the "Golden Arches" everywhere I turn.

Emi: I like McDonald's

Mike: I'm sick of McDonald's. Did you know that there's over 8,000 restaurants in the U.S. alone and over 11,000 franchises (專賣店)worldwide? By the year 2020, everyone will eat at McDonald's everyday!

Emi: They're definitely everywhere. But they must be doing something right; they've sold over 100 billion burgers. They're even in Japan. Did you know they even put special Japanese sauces on some of their burgers in Japan?

Mike: They do not.

Emi: Yes. they do. I promise.

Mike: Whatever. I just don't think their food isn't all that great.

Emi: But at least their product is consistent; you know exactly what you're going to get every time you go there.

Mike: Did you know that their mascot, (吉祥物)Ronald McDonald is now recognized by 96 percent of all American schoolchildren? They are the largest minimum-wage employer in America and own more real estate than any other company on earth.

Emi: I heard that a person working at a McDonald's in Moscow makes more than the average Russian doctor does.

Mike: That's disgusting! But I do believe in capitalism, so I guess that's okay. The average McDonald's franchise rakes in (撈錢，斂財(cái))over $ 1 million dollars a year. They say that one in every seven American millionaires got their start at McDonald's..

Emi: All this food trivia is making me hungry. Let's hurry and find a fast food place.

Mike: Okay. What do you feel like eating?

Emi: I've got this intense craving for a Big Mac.

Mike: I just lose my appetite.
