吃不起的麥當勞

　　McDonald's Corp, the world's largest restaurant company, raised the prices of four products by 1 yuan ($0.15) in China at the end of April, the company confirmed on Tuesday。

　　The price increase is around 17 percent and, apart from saying it was for structural adjustment, McDonald's did not give a specific reason for the rise。

　　It was the company's second rise in China this year. The four products for breakfast and lunch were not included in previous rise. The previous was in January. The price of some McDonald's products went up by 0.5 to 2 yuan on Jan 12.

　　McDonald's explained in January that the price rise mainly resulted from the continuous rise in costs of materials and other elements。

　　It is possible that other fast-food chains, such as KFC, Starbuck and Pizza Hut, will follow the rise this year, business insiders said, because the cost of human resources, raw materials and transportation is still going up。

　　英語快訊：繼今年1月初在全國范圍內提價后，麥當勞公司4款產品在4月底均漲價1元，分別為：脆雞扒麥滿分超值早餐組合、吉士蛋麥滿分(堡)超值早餐組合、雙層吉士漢堡超值午餐、麥香魚超值午餐。值得注意的是，此次4款提價的產品不在上一輪漲價產品范圍之內。不過4個月，麥當勞就對1月份未提價的早餐和午餐的部分產品進行調價。漲價原因主要是原材料和交通運輸的價格上漲。
