  :老歌金曲

  Kevin:: So what's your favorite golden oldies?

  Keiko: You mean my favorite song? I don't know. that's like asking me what was my favorite day last year.

  Kevin: Well, let's make it your favorite song from the sixties.

  Keiko: I guess, that's a little easier. No, wait, there's a lot of good songs from the sixties.

  Kevin: Okay, how about your favorite Beatles song from the sixties?

  Keiko: That still give me 10 years to choose from.

  Kevin: All right. How about 1965?

  Keiko: That's better. Wait. I have no idea what songs came out in 1965.

  Kevin: Here, take a look at this top song hits chart from 1965.

  Keiko: Thanks. Oh, okay. This is easy. My favorite Beatle song from 1965 has gotta be "Yesterday.".

  Kevin: Isn't "Yesterday" every Japanese person's favorite Beatle song?

  Keiko: I have no idea. What makes you think that?

  Kevin: Well every time I go to a karaoke bar in Japan and look at the song selections, I only find about 3 English songs: "Yesterday", "My Way", and "I Left My Heart in San Francisco"

  Keiko: Oh, that's funny but you're right. My gosh, you must have been to a lot of karaoke bars.

  Kevin: As a matter of fact I have. I swear they all use the same song list book.

  Keiko:By the way, what's your favorite song from 1965?

  Kevin: "I Can't Get No Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones.

   not surprised.

  :The average American woman

  smith sensei:: in today's english class, we'll be talking about the average american. to begin with, the average u.s. citizen is a married woman age 32. that's because about 51.2% of the population are women and 32 is the median age.

  yamada: interesting. and how many children does the "average" woman have?

  smith sensei: she has 2.1 children.

  yamada: how do you get the "point one"?

  smith sensei: very funny.

  yamada: just kidding. so how tall is the average woman?

  smith sensei: she is 5 feet 4 inches. i don't know what that is in centimeters.

  yamada: that's okay. i can figure it out. so what else can you tell me about the average american "woman"?

  smith sensei: she is slightly overweight, about 143 pounds and dieting. her dress size is size 10 or 12.

  yamada: wow! that sure isn't the median size in japan. japanese women are much smaller!

  smith sensei: yes, but as japan adopts the american lifestyle, dress sizes will begin to increase in japan as well.

  yamada: how true. so, keep going. tell us more . how about religion?

  smith sensei: she doesn't go to church on sunday, but she believes in god.

  yamada: how about money?

  smith sensei: she makes less than $20,000 a year from her white collar job. she lives in the state where she was born and spends a third of her income on housing.

  :千萬漢堡

  mike:: let's go get something to eat.

  emi: oh, i'm starving. hey, there's a mcdonald's up ahead.

  mike: there's always a mcdonalds up ahead. everywhere you turn there's another blasted mcdonald's.

  emi: what's wrong with that? hey, they're convenient.

  mike: they're too convenient! anything would be convenient if it could be found on every street corner. i'm just plain sick of seeing the "golden arches" everywhere i turn.

  emi: i like mcdonald's

  mike: i'm sick of mcdonald's. did you know that there's over 8,000 restaurants in the u.s. alone and over 11,000 franchises ***專賣店***worldwide? by the year 2020, everyone will eat at mcdonald's everyday!

  emi: they're definitely everywhere. but they must be doing something right; they've sold over 100 billion burgers. they're even in japan. did you know they even put special japanese sauces on some of their burgers in japan?

  mike: they do not.

  emi: yes. they do. i promise.

  mike: whatever. i just don't think their food isn't all that great.

  emi: but at least their product is consistent; you know exactly what you're going to get every time you go there.

  mike: did you know that their mascot, ***吉祥物***ronald mcdonald is now recognized by 96 percent of all american schoolchildren? they are the largest minimum-wage employer in america and own more real estate than any other company on earth.

  emi: i heard that a person working at a mcdonald's in moscow makes more than the average russian doctor does.
