【题目】Black Friday

Thanksgiving is always on a Thursday. The day after it has been known as Black Friday. It is the start of the holiday shopping season, and it has been the busiest shopping day of the year in the US since 2005.

Most stores offer big sales on Black Friday. They open their doors quite early in the morning. They try to attract shoppers with big discounts (打折). Some items (商品)like TVs and cloths are much cheaper than usual. Stores may even lose money on these items. They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.

Black Friday is a great time to go shopping. However, there are problem. The biggest one is that there are not enough low-priced items. Each store may only have a few. These items are in great need, so people stand in long lines to get them. They may wait three to four hours before a store opens. They may be hoping to get a low price on a TV or computer, but not everybody can get one. Some people leave, disappointed.

The situation makes people worried. Some Black Friday events have been crazy. There have been fights over toys among shoppers. Some workers have even been hurt by large crowds. But most Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if you plan to go, you will expect large crowds and a bit of pushing.

So where does the name “Black Friday” come from? It was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. The police called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it caused. In the 1960s, stores tried to rename the day “Big Friday”. It did not stick. The name “Black Friday” continued to spread across the country. It seems that it is here to stay.

Now people all over the country take part in Black Friday events. It is even spreading to other parts of the world. Stores have held Black Friday events in the UK, Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Mexico, stores offer a weekend of discounts every year. They call it “El Buen Fin”, which means “the good weekend” in Spanish. I guess people everywhere like to buy things on sale.

2What is the biggest problem with Black Friday?

3How long may people have to wait before a store opens?

4Where was the name “Black Friday” first used in the 1950s?

【题目】

Chinese oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) over 3, 000 years old are now widely used as emojis (表情符号) by young WeChat users, thanks to a person who made them closer to people's life.

"The ancient characters are not as cool and far as they are supposed to be. 1 Now they could totally serve people's needs for online expression, " said the creator Chen Nan.

The 46-year-old teacher of fine arts at Tsinghua University has been working to make oracle bone inscriptions into emojis. For example, the character for "zui", which means " drunk" in English, was created to look like a stumbling (摇摇晃晃行走的) person. 2

To make more people understand this old language, Chen made them on the postcards. 3 A cartoon video with oracle bone inscriptions created by him was watched 31 million times and shared 140, 000 times.

4 In 2016, the ancient font (字体) was included into the font library under his hard work to let the ancient words walk into people's life.

5 But Chen's research on the project still continues, as he plans to enlarge the library to 7, 000 characters. In the future, he will put the ancient characters into practice in education and the development of games and apps.

B. Now the library has 3, 500 characters.
