Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is “Wheres the beef? ”. It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s, “Wheres the beef?” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone were using it at the time.Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Ray called this “McDonalds”. Ray became one of the richest businessmen at last in America.Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company called “Wendys” said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonalds or anyone else. The Wendys company began to use the expression “Wheres the beef?” to make people know that Wendys hamburgers were the biggest. The Wendys television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a bit of meat. One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. “Wheres the beef?”she shouted in a funny way. The advertisement for Wendys hamburger restaurants was successful. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression “Wheres the beef?”.28. started McDonalds restaurant.A. RayB. McDonald29.

Wendys hamburgers are the biggestDI came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, Id have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him. But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $770.America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality(道德). Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.32.
