4.细节理解题。

今年是11月23日。

”可知，今年的黑色星期五是11月23日。

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。

故选C。

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。

Manypeople,evenyourparents,gotobedlatethatnight.Theygoshoppingonlinetogetbigsavings（省钱）.你知道中国的光棍节（11月11日）吗?

【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"inthered"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"BlackFriday"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；故选A。

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。

故选C。
