Dear Sir,

    I'm interested in the furnished cottage near Dedham which you advertised in your yesterday's times, for my husband and I are coming to England in June and require accommodation for three months. Would you please tell me exactly where it is and give me details of bus and train services in the area?

    We need a cottage on busy route. And I would also like to know about the local shops. Do all the shops still deliver (遞送) ?I know they did ten years ago.

    I would be grateful (感激) also if you would tell me whether you supply sheets and whether a laundry (洗衣店) calls at the house. The rent you ask sounds reasonable for the size of the cottage. How do you like it paid? Weekly, monthly or in advance?

    I would be grateful for an early reply and enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope.

　　Monday, the second day of the week, means literally “day of the moon”. Here in Britain, it’s generally the least popular of days because for most people it means to return to school or work after the weekend break. Often this prospect is viewed with a lack of enthusiasm, a sad feeling that’s sometimes referred to as“Monday morning blues.”

　　Sometimes the blues may be caused by too much weekend drinking; and formerly if workmen over-indulged needed Monday as holiday, this was humorously known as “Keeping ST. Monday”, as Monday was hoped to be a saint’s day to be observed. Some one who can’t afford to keep ST. Monday is the housewife, for traditionally Monday was—and to some extent is棥—wash day”, the proper day for doing the laundry.

　　However, the day is not all blues and work. It has some redeeming features—that is, if you can believe folk rhymes, it’s a good day on which to be ham. “Monday’s child is fair a face,” says one traditional rhyme, while another promised optimistically that if you get married on Monday, you will be wealthy.

1．How do you understand “Monday morning blues”?

[　　]

A．It’s poplar because people can return to work.

B．It’s popular as a saint’s day.

C．People feel sad because they had to return to work and studies after weekend break.

D．People feel enthusiastic after too much weekend drinking.

2．Monday is enjoyable to the following people except ________.

[　　]

A．housewives

B．people who set their weddings on

C．women to give birth to their babies

D．workmen who get drunk and want a day off

McDonald's is the world single biggest food provider with annual sales of around $12.4bn. And the company's symbol Ronald McDonald is now （or so the company claims） the word's most recognized person after Santa Claus.

　　The first McDonald's restaurant was opened in San Bernardino, California, in 1948 by brothers Mac and Richard “Dick” McDonald. Mac ran the restaurant side; Dick was the marketing genius. He had already invented the drive-in laundry and had been the first person to use neon lights in advertising. Now he spotted the gap in the post-war, baby-boom market for cheap, family-orientated restaurants with simple menus, standardized food and efficient service.

　　After a slow start, business began to boom. By 1954, the brothers were joined by another entrepreneur, a kitchen equipment salesman called Ray A Kroc who owned the franchise to the Multimixer, milk shake maker used throughout the McDonald's chain. A year later, Kroc had bought the McDonald brothers' chain of 25 franchises for the equivalent of around $70m（￡44m）. Dick remained with the company until the Seventies, when he and Kroc fell out over Kroc's claim that the chain was his creation.

　　Today, an almost Stalinist cult of personality surrounds Kroc （who died in 1984） at McDonald's, while the brothers who gave the company its name have all but been written out of its history. But though Kroc did not found McDonald's, he was certainly responsible for the empire-building philosophy which led to its world domination. He ushered in such essential contributions to international cuisine as the Big Mac （1968） and the Egg McMuffin （1973）; and helped launch Ronald McDonald —— “in any language he means fun” —— on to television in 1963.

　　Every three hours, a new McDonald's franchise opens somewhere in the world; it can be found in more than 100 countries including India （vegetarian-only to avoid offending the non-beef-eating populace） and Israel （non kosher, despite fierce local objection）. McDonald's chain embodied the thrusting, can-do spirit of Fifties America with staff mottoes such as “If you've got time to lean, you've go time to clean.”
