andthereforeneedstobetorndown ManypeopleinthetownofDowneydon tagreewiththislineofthinking though 麦当劳方面解释说 那家老店在一次地震中遭到损坏 因此必须拆掉 不过 唐尼的许多人却不同意这种说法 Onewomansays Ithinkit sterrible

不过那些经理们想在其他位置按原餐馆再仿造一家 McDonald smanagerssaytherestaurantislosingmoneyatthatlocation Thereisnoroomforadrive thruwindow orforseatinginside Aftertheearthquake theysayitwasimpossibletofix

现代的麦当劳餐馆常常有一个牌子 声称有个叫雷 克罗克的男人于1955年在伊利诺伊州创办了首家麦当劳餐馆 然而事实是 克罗克先生的快餐生意实际上是从唐尼市的迪克 麦当劳和麦克 麦当劳那里学来的 后来克罗克先生买下了他们的餐馆 因此 尽管公司竭力否认 唐尼镇的许多人还是认为麦当劳是想篡改历史 Tolocalhistorians thisexplanationmakestotalsense Onehistoriansaid Weshouldnotrewritethepast RayKrocdidnotinventMcDonald s TheMcDonaldbrothersdid Para 10 在当地的历史学家看来 这种解释颇有道理 有位历史学家说 历史不容篡改 雷 克罗克没有创建麦当劳 创建麦当劳的是麦氏兄弟 Thesedays
