They opened a popular restaurant inCalifornia which sold food that was easy to prepare and serve quickly. Hamburgers, French fries, and cold drinks were the main food there. Kroc opened similar eating places under the same name, "McDonald''s", and they were an instant success. He later took over the company, and today it is one of the most famous and successful "fast-food" in America and the world.Why was his idea so successful? Probably the most important reasonwas that this timing was right. In the 1950s, most married women stayed home to keep house and take care of their children. In the1960s, many women returned to the workplace. This meant they had less time and energy to do housework and preparation of meals, so they relied more on "TV dinners" and fast-food restaurant. Single parents also have little time to spend in the kitchen. People living alone also depend on this type of food, since cooking for one is often more trouble than it is worth.Fast-food is not part of the diet of all Americans. Another trend of the 1960s, sometimes called the back-to-nature movement influenced many people to avoid food that was packaged or processed. The preference for natural foods continues to this day.From the successof Raymond Kroc''s fast-food business, we can say that social economic trends influence where and what we eat.(1). "Cooking for one is more trouble than it is worth" means ( ).A. cooking for several people is worth more moneyB. it is not necessary to take too much time to cook for one personC. there are more problems when one person cooksD. there are a lot of housework and preparation to do when one person cooks(2).
