showing signs of recovery in America and Australia, but sales in Europe were sluggish or decliningOne exception was France, where MrHennequiphad done a reliable job as head on the groups French subsidiary（子公式） to sell more Big Macs to his relatives, His task was to copy this success in all 41 of the European countries where anti-globalisers favourite enemy operatesSo far MrHenncquin is doing wellLast year European sales increased by 58% and the number of customers by 34%, the best annual results in nearly 15 yearsEurope accounted for 36% of the groups profits and for 28 of its salesDecember was an especially good month as customers took to seasonal menu offerings in France and Britain, and to a promotion in Germany based on the game of Monopoly（垄断）MrHennequins recipe for

percent of them are rats and mice, 180,000 dogs, 50,000 cats61,000 monkeys and 554,000 rabbits are done away with in Laboratories operated by industry and governmentBut the public has raised an outcry over these deathsSpurred vivid reports of cruelty, the animal rights movement is made up of 7,000 organizations with 10 million membersTheyve documented cases in which monkeys were isolated in steel tanks for 45 days and dogs were bombarded with radiation or chemicals until they bled from the mouthScientists say such incidents are rareI aws have been passed to govern testingMany research centers now have committees to review all proposed animal experiments, and computers can be used in place of animals in many experimentsBut scientists say they cant do without animals to test new drugs and
