分）阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出最佳选项ain 1939 two brothers,mac and dick mcdonald,started a drive-in restaurant in san bernadino,california.they carefully chose a busy corner for their location.they had run their own businesses for years,first a theater,then a barbecue（烤肉）restaurant,then another drive-in.but in their new operation,they offered a new,shortened menu:french fries,hamburgers,and sodas.to this small selection they added one new idea:quick service,no waiters or waitresses,and no tips.their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents.cheese was another four cents.their french fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity（一致性）,for the brothers had developed a strict routine （程序）for the preparation of their food,and they insisted on their cooks sticking to their routine .their new drive-in became surprisingly popular,particularly for lunch.people drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime.the self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened.they were content with this modest success until they met ray kroc.kroc was a salesman who met the mcdonald brothers in 1954,when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines.he quickly saw the special attraction of the brothers fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise（特许经营）other copies of their restaurants.the agreement struck included the right to duplicate（复制）the menu,the equipment,even their red and white buildings with the golden arches（拱门）.today mcdonalds is really a household name.in 1976,mcdonalds had over $ l billion in total sales.its first twenty-two years in one of the most surprising success stories in modern american business history.41this passage mainly talks about _.athe development of fast food servicesbhow mcdonalds became a billion-dollar businesscthe business careers of mac and dick mcdonalddray krocs business talent42mac and dick managed all of the following businesses except_ .aa drive-in ba theaterca cinema da barbecue restaurant43we may infer from this passage that _.amac and dick mcdonald never became wealthy for they sold their idea to kroc.bthe place the mcdonalds chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-incforty years ago there were lots of fast-food restaurantsdray kroc was a good businessman44the passage suggests that _.acreativity is an important element of business successbray kroc was the close partner of the mcdonald brotherscmac and dick mcdonald became broken after they sold their ideas to ray krocdcalifornia is the best place to go into businessbmaggie was very glad that james was not a frequent visitor to the house.in the childrens opinion,they had something that they couldnt explain or understand about him and that excited their imagination.he stirred maggies anger,however,so that she often said to her husband,“its a mercy that brother of yours doesnt come oftener.”in fact james came once a year,unexpectedly,around eight oclock in the evening,and he stayed for six hours of close discussion with his brother.his arrival was a signal to the childreen that their bedtime would be delayed.not that he ever spoke to them or played with them.he took no notice of them,as if he was unable to see children,at least until the time came for him to go.indeed,after his first greeting and a careless kiss,james took no notice of maggie either, except to add,“youll be getting on with the supper,maggie.”such was his regard for her.maggie paid him back in her own way.she kept the children up,the four of them,to keep her company,she said,but of course they sang and made a noise and broke the endless sound of jamesvoice.very late,they dropped off to sleep in their chairs.then,when james was about to go,maggie woke them up and so more or less forced him to part with four shillings before he left.that gave her some satisfaction,for james,though rich,was unwilling to give or share what he had.he always went home by the last train,just after two oclock.maggies children secretly stared at their uncle.they could not forget that he had,in their mothers words,“lost two wives and taken a third.”they wondered about those two unfortunate,lost ladies.they asked each other what their fate had been,and if neither could ever be found again.james never brought his third wife with him nor ever mentioned her.the children decided that he must be so frightened of losing her that he never allowded her outside the door.45maggie never prepared anything special for james because _.ahe was a man difficult to pleasebshe never knew when he was comingcshe was too busy looking after her childrendhe never stayed long enough for a meal 46what do we know about james behaviour?ahe was a kind man,with love for the family.bhe was unselfish,especially towards his brother.che was anxious to please the family,especially the children.dhe was rude to his sister-in-law 47maggie felt pleased when_ .ashe paid james the money that she owed himbjames gave some money to the childrencshe had to wake james up to catch his traindjames thanked her for the nice supper 48the children did not realise that two of jameswives_ .awere dead bsuffered from loss of memorychad run away from him dmight reappear one daycin contrast, exactly correct measurement of time is very important in modem,industrialized societies.this is because industrialized societies require the helpful efforts of many pople in order to work.for a factory to work efficiently （well,quickly and without waste），for example,all of the workers must work at the same time.therefore,they must know what time to start work in the morning and what time they may go home in the afternoon.passengers must know the exact time that an airplane will arrive or depart.students and teachers need to know when a class starts and ends.stores must open on time in order to serve their customers.complicated societies need clocks and calendars.thus,we can see that if each person worked according to his or her own schedule, a complicated society could hardly work at all.49by saying“humans are social animals”,the author means_ .athey live all over the worldbthey are different from other animalscthey live in one place, district or country, considered as a wholedthey are divided into many groups 50time is not very important in nonindustrial societies. this is because people in those societies_adont have the word time in their languagesbdont get used to using clocks and other timepiecescdont measure time in their daily-lives around an exact time scheduleddont need to plan their daily lives around an exact time schedule51the australian aborigines way of“telling time”is based on_ .athe change of the sun raysbthe movement of the earth in
