Question

There are more and more fast food chains（连锁店）all over the world now. Most of these places work on a similar principle（准则）.There is a long counter（柜台），above which hangs a list（often with pictures）of the items they sell，and behind which several people (often students working for the lowest pay) are working. Buyers form queues in front of each assistant. You receive what you order and take it on a tray（托盘）to a table. If you can’t see any knives and forks, this means you should eat with your hands. If you can’t see any straws (吸管)，that’s because they are hiding in the straw machine and you have to press the button to get a straw. When you have finished, you yourself throw away everything except the tray. It seems that you should do almost everything while you are having food in this kind of restaurant.

Many fast food places have drive-in facilities（设施）You place your order from your car through a microphone and then drive to a special window to pay and pick it up. You may even find places where a waitress brings your meal out, and you sit and eat it in the car from a tray hooked（钩住）over the door through the open window. What do you think about this king of food-serving? Everything happens in seconds as well as your lunch or supper. You have no time to enjoy your meal because you are eating fast food.
