In 1955,a man named Ray Kroc entered into partnership with two brothers named McDonald. They 1       a popular restaurant in Illinois which sold food that was easy to prepare and 2        quickly. Hamburgers,French fries and cold drinks were the 3        food there. Kroc opened similar eating 4        under the same name "McDonald's", and they were an instant (立即的) success. He later took over the company,and today McDonald's is one of the most famous and successful fastfood 5        in the world.

  6       was his idea so successful? Probably,the most important reason was that his timing was right. In the 1950s,most married women stayed at home to keep house and 7        their children. In the 1960s,many women 8        to the workplace. This meant that they had 9        time and energy to do the housework and preparation for meals 10        they relied more on TV dinners (冷凍快餐) and fastfood restaurants. Single parents also had little time to 11        in the kitchen. People living alone also 12        this type of food,since cooking for one is often more trouble than it is worth.

  Fast food is one part of the diet of all Americans. Another trend（趨勢(shì),傾向) of the 1960s,13       called the back-to-nature movement,influenced many people to avoid food 14        was packaged or processed. This preference for natural food 15        to today.

 A father's role in a family is important.  One researcher says babies who are looked after by their fathers have greater cognitive (認(rèn)知的) development at one year old than babies not looked after by their fathers. Another researcher reports that by spending time with their preschool children,fathers can help to develop children's language ability. Researchers also point out that for schoolaged children,fathers are one bridge to the outside world.

  Fathers who value education make children do better at school. What's more,fathers who spend much time with their children may give their children happy memories which may last for a lifetime.

  While each father is a unique person who educates children in his own style,good fathers have something in common.

  Good fathers attend their children's school activities. They also involve the children in their lives and the adult world by taking them to the workplaces,or taking them when the car needs to be repaired. 

  Good fathers not only expect a great deal from their children,but also accept and support the unique individuals (個(gè)體) that their children are becoming.

  Good fathers prefer explanations and reasons to force.

  Good fathers know their time with children is really an investment (投資) in them.

  Being involved with fathers is good for children and good for fathers. Both children and fathers have the chance of growth and development. Today's lifestyles are changing. More and more fathers are keeping a balance between their work and families.

  I've always liked the famous 1      ：Practice makes perfect.

  I'm now in the 2      (two) month of teaching as a language assistant inFrance. Honestly speaking,I do love my job. Most of my classes here are French classes; that is to say the students have extra (額外的) English lessons to help them become better language learners. However,when I ask my students 3       (describe) their favorite films,they can't even tell me the names of any films,I'm really 4      

  My French is far from perfect. I remember 5       (exact) how I felt when I was sitting in a classroom and had to speak a strange,unfamiliar language 6        front of my classmates and a native speaker. I was very frightened and nervous. But only now when I'm a language assistant myself can I understand how valuable the role is. Assistants provide an opportunity for foreigners to listen to a real accent,learn everyday phrases and of course,offer them a chance to practice 7       (speak) with native speakers. So,8       they should do is to practice as much as they can.

  There is always something new to learn such as vocabulary or grammar. You can always improve. I really want to help these students become the best learners but I can't help them 9        they start to help themselves.

  Just like my students,I 10       (buy) a French book and I want to learn French well. However,only a few days after buying it,I threw the book in the bottom of my bag without reading. So,I guess there is only one thing left for me to do: Pick up the book and start taking my own advice to be a better learner.

Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy,but few know how to find happiness. Money and success don't bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words,we make our own happiness.

Some people believe that if they are wealthy,they will be able to do anything they want,which means happiness. On the other hand,some people believe that holding a high position in the government is happiness. In this way,you have not only money,but also many other things which can't be bought by money. However,other people believe that having lots of money is not happiness,nor is holding a high position in the government. These people value (重視) their beliefs,or their intelligence,or their health. They think these can make them happy.

Here are a few ways to help you be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often,we spend so much time thinking about the future,for example,getting into college or getting a good job,that we don't enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures,such as reading a good book,listening to your favorite music,or spending time with close friends. People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.

The second secret of happiness is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget their problems and only think about the activities.

Finally,many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies,people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people. If you want to feel happier,do something nice for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies,go shopping to get food for an old neighbor,or simply help around the house.
