The Friday after the American holiday of Thanksgiving is called Black Friday. It’s said that it’s the day that store ledgers(分類賬)move into the black and companies become profitable(有利可圖的,有益的). On that day, retailers(零售商)slash prices to get consumers to buy. It is also a time when many Americans start their Christmas shopping. VOA’s Elizabeth Lee tells us how the economy may affect consumers on that bargain day.
“It’s just the deals, the sales and everything you can get for a lesser(較少的,較小的)price,” said Sandy Thomas, a shopper. But it’s a nightmare(噩夢(mèng))for others. “I think it’s crazy. I’ve done all of my shopping throughout the week so I don’t have to go out on Friday,” she said. It’s called Black Friday, the start of the traditional Christmas shopping season in the United States. Every year it’s the day after the Thanksgiving holiday. Stores open before sunrise and there are deep discounts everywhere you look.
While the lead up to Christmas is known as the season of giving, Black Friday can get ugly.
Last year a crowd of bargain-hunters killed a Wal-mart(沃爾瑪公司)worker in a New York suburb. This year, many stores are increasing security while they slash prices. “This is a huge time for the retail stores,” said Fred Joutz from George Washington University. “This is when they begin making their profits for the year.”
Economics professor Fred Joutz says how Americans spend the weekend after Thanksgiving is a good indication of how consumers feel about the future.
With the unemployment rate above 10 percent, Joutz says Americans are saving more and spending less. “Credit is still strictly controlled whether through credit cards or through borrowing from banks,” he said. Some retailers are attracting consumers by opening on Thanksgiving Day, when shops are traditionally closed. Other stores open their doors anywhere from midnight to four in the morning.
And shoppers will be lining up in front of the doors in order to be one of the first ones to walk through and get a big discount. Electronics like flat screen TVs are usually the first items to go. Sandy Thomas says it’s an annual family tradition and well worth it. “I just save maybe half of what I would have spent on a regular, you know, shopping trip,” she said.
Economists say U.S. consumers will spend money this Black Friday, but they will spend it more carefully.
【小題1】 The underlined word “slash” in the first paragraph probably means _________.
A.reduce | B.raise | C.increase | D.change |
A.paragraph two and paragraph three | B.paragraph one and paragraph two |
C.paragraph three and paragraph four | D.paragraph five and paragraph six |
A.Because there are too many people saving more and spending less. |
B.Because it’s a time when they begin making their profits for the year. |
C.Because last year a crowd of bargain-hunters caused an accident. |
D.Because many stores open their doors from midnight to four a.m. |
A.Christmas shopping is traditional time and this year it is no exception. |
B.Electronics like flat screen TVs are usually least discounted. |
C.The economy only affects consumers on that bargain day. |
D.Thanksgiving is a good indication of how consumers feel about the future. |

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2013-2014學(xué)年河南義馬高中高二上期第一次月考英語(yǔ)卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解
Norah has a cottage on a cliff above a big bay. In winter it could be very nasty because of strong winds and sea spray. In fact, when a gale was blowing, Norah and her husband got used to sleeping in a small room downstairs, because their bedroom upstairs, which faced the gales, had a very big window, and they were afraid that an extra violent gust might break it and blow pieces of broken glass over them.
Also, the salt spray from the sea put an end to many of the colorful plants Norah planted in the garden. She tried putting up a fence to protect them, but the wind just hit it, went up over the top and then down the other side, so in the end she filled the garden with trees and bushes that liked salt.
But most of the summer Norah enjoyed her cottage and garden very much. At weekends she could sit out-of-doors in the sun, looking at the beautiful view, with interesting ships and boats passing by, and she could very easily cycle down to the sea for a swim.
Now, Norah and her husband had plenty of friends and relations. In the summer most of them used to come to enjoy the beautiful place, and in the end it really became quite annoying for Norah and her husband. When they were at home, they found friends and relations arriving, expecting to be given unlimited drinks and meals, and to sit in the sun for hours, talking as if Norah and her husband had nothing else to do but entertain and listen to them.
This went on for several years. Norah did not wish to appear rude by refusing to let her friends and relations in, but on the other hand, she was getting tired every summer.
Then one day Norah was complaining about this to her hairdresser while she was doing her hair. “You’re disturbed by too many uninvited guests, are you?” said the hairdresser. “Why don’t you try my way of escaping?”
“What’s that?” asked Norah.
“Well,” the hairdresser answered, “when the bell rings, I put on my coat and take my shopping bag. If it’s someone I don’t want to see, I say innocently, ‘I’m sorry, but I’ve got to go out. But…’”
1.In paragraph one the underlined word “spray” probably means .
A. wastes produced by some birds living near the sea
B. great waves caused by strong wind
C. plants floating on the surface of the sea
D. very small drops of sea water sent through the air by something
2.We can infer that .
A. a lot of friends came to visit them in winter
B. few friends came to visit them in winter.
C. Friends came to visit them only for drinks and meals
D. Norah was a good cook
3.The best title for the passage might be .
A. A Good Place of Enjoying the Sea
B. A Warm-hearted Couple
C. A Clever Way of Escaping
D. A Visit to Norah
4.What the hairdresser is likely to continue to say in the end is “ ”
A. If I am tired, I say, ‘Sorry, can you come next time?’
B. If it’s someone I like to see, I say, ‘How lucky! I’ve just come in!’
C. If it’s someone I like to see, I say, ‘How happy to see you! I was going shopping, but now I’ve changed my mind.’
D. If it is fine that day, I say, ‘I am tired, but I’ll show you around the place, anyhow.’
