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 clothes 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 problems. 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 stnnrl in lnnjy lines to eret 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 M the good weekend" in Spanish. I guess people everywhere like to buy things on sale.
71. Is Black Friday the start of the holiday shopping season?
72. What is the biggest problem with Black Friday?
The biggest problem is that .
73. How long may people have to wait before a store operis?
They may have to wait beforeastoreopens.
74. Where was the name "Black Friday" first used in the 1950s?
It was first used in the 1950s.

Have you seen some machines that eat used plastic bottles and give some coins to the users (用户) ?
Recently,such machines have appeared at universities in Chongqing. They can turn rubbish into treasure and encourage the public to recycle rubbish. The machine is as large as a fridge. Users put an empty bottle in the machine. It is identified (识别) by a small camera. Then it is put into a built-in bin. The users can get some coins. They can also give away the money.
When the machine is filled with bottles,it will tell the company's (公司的) head office. Nearby stations will send workers to have bottles collected,packed and sent to the conpany.
The bottle recycling machines could greatly encourage the public to recycle rubbish and save natural resources (资源) .Now the machine only eats plastic bottles. Sometime in the future it will also cover others,such as glass bottles,to turn more rubbish into treasure and make full use of the natural resources.
People can also see similar machines in Shanghai. In the future,more such machines will appear at some large stations,bus stops,neighborhoods and schools.

After dinner,Father had a short rest and made his way to the field. A full moon was glowing (发光) in the sky and the weather was cold but clear. He spent the whole night keeping his word.
I would never forget the image (画面) :Father was cutting rice in the light of the harvest moon. Behind him,row after row of rice straw (稻草) stood at attention,showing respect for a man who kept his word.
