【答案】BCABD
【解析】本文章主要讲了美国的最大的购物日,“黑色星期五”的时间、由来等。
4.细节理解题。
根据文章第二段“BlackFridayistheFridayafterThanksgivingDay.Itisonnovember23thisyear.黑色星期五是感恩节后的星期五。
今年是11月23日。
”可知,今年的黑色星期五是11月23日。
故选B。
5.段落大意题。
根据文章第三段“It’scalledBlackFridaybecauseshopsusedtorecord(记录)saleswithblackink(墨水).Sowhentherewasalotofblackinkonapage,theshopsoldalot.之所以被称为黑色星期五,是因为商店过去用黑墨水记录销售额,所以当页面上有很多黑墨水时,商店就卖了很多。
”可知,第三段主要讲述了黑色星期五的由来。
6.细节理解题。
根据文章第二段“ItisoneofthebiggestshoppingdaysintheUS.这是美国最大的购物日之一”;
及第四段“OnblackFriday,peoplegoshoppingatactualstores(实体店).在黑色星期五,人们去实体商店购物。
”可知,那天人们并非是在网络上购物,因此不是最大的网购日。
7.推理判断题。
根据文章第一段“DoyouknowSinglesDay(November11)inChina?
Manypeople,evenyourparents,gotobedlatethatnight.Theygoshoppingonlinetogetbigsavings(省钱).你知道中国的光棍节(11月11日)吗?
很多人,甚至你的父母,都会在那晚很晚才上床睡觉,他们会去网上购物来节约钱”;
及第二段“PeoplewanttostartshoppingforChristmasgifts,sotheygoshoppingonthisdaytosavemoney.人们想开始买圣诞礼物,所以他们在这一天去购物来省钱。
”可知,人们可以在光棍节和黑色星期五购物,来节省一部分钱。
从而判断“人们在这两天买东西,可以节省很多钱。
”正确。
8.最佳标题题。

【答案】ADAC
【解析】本文讲述了双十一购物节是中国最大的购物节日,在美国也有一个类似的节日——黑色星期五,短文介绍了黑色星期五的由来。
9.细节理解题。
根据“BlackFridayhasbecomesomewhatofamarketingsensation(感觉)inrecentyears.Since2005,ithasbeenthebusiestshoppingdayoftheyear.”可知自2005年以来,它一直是一年中最繁忙的购物日,可推测出美国人在这一天,忙着购物,故选A。
10.细节理解题。
根据“Intheearly1980s,amorepositiveexplanation(建设性的解释)ofthenamebegantospread.Accordingtothisexplanation,BlackFridayisthedaywhenretailersfinallybegintoturnaprofit(获利)fortheyear.”可知在20世纪80年代早期,对这个名字的积极解释开始传播开来。
根据这种解释,黑色星期五是零售商最终开始盈利的日子,故选D。
11.推理判断题。
根据“Inaccountingterms,operatingatalossiscalledbeing"
becauseaccountantstraditionallyusedredinktoshownegativeamounts”可知在会计术语中,亏损经营被称为“亏损”,因为会计人员传统上用红墨水来表示负数,与选项A内容不符;
根据“inthemid-1960s.Busdriversandpoliceused"
todescribetheheavytraffic”可知人们用“黑色星期五”来形容20世纪60年代中期的交通拥挤,与选项B内容相符;
根据“theMondayfollowingBlackFridayhasbecomeknownasCyberMondayforthemanyonlinedeals.”可知“黑色星期五”后的星期一被称为“网购星期一”,因为有很多网上交易,与选项C内容相符;
根据“Tolureshoppers,retailersusuallyopentheirdoorsasearlyas4a.m.andofferspecialsalesandpromotionstotheshoppersthatarriveearly.”可知为了吸引顾客,零售商通常早在凌晨4点就开门营业,为早到的顾客提供特价和促销活动,与选项D内容相符;
12.主旨大意题。
根据本文讲述了双十一购物节是中国最大的购物节日,在美国也有一个类似的节日——黑色星期五,短文介绍了黑色星期五的由来。
