investigative study of Black Friday，led by West Chester University Professor Gina Castle Bell，observed themes of consumerism but also observed the themes of a happy holiday.The researchers found through Black Friday people celebrate，plan，bond，and build traditions together.For me my Black Friday always begins and ends on a living room floor littered with newspaper ads.There，late on Thanksgiving night，my family collectively holds a strategy session.Later，we race to early bird specials，wait with strangers in lines sharing stories of past Black Fridays，take a long relaxing lunch full of family banter(戲謔)，get Christmas decorations，stop into a Cheesecake Factory bar to see the dramatic end of a football game，get a caffeine­high from Starbucks Christmas drinks，and end the shopping at a torn apart Old Navy(美國(guó)服裝品牌)，digging to find late available basics like socks.Finally，exhausted but contented，we collapse back on that living room floor，still littered with ads，where we drink hot cocoa，watch a Christmas movie，and plan to hang the new decorations.This is not to say that Black Friday is always lovely.Instead，its often miserable.But the misery is sort of what makes Black Friday such a great tradition.Many Black Friday shoppers know that the deals on Black Friday are not especially great and are available online.But they did not show up for the deals，they showed for the “misery”For them the crowds，the rush，and the difficulty all enhance(提升) Black Fridaysimilar to the way crowds enhance movie opening nights，the rush enhances music festivals，and difficulty enhances the experience of camping for other types of people.Those crazy elements transform the events into what consumer researchers call a “collectible experience”Collectible experiences are not always pleasant but they are memorable and meaningful to those games for them.There seems to be a mad rush in the media to analyze Black Friday.Yet，every analysis misses the point that Black Friday，which though on the surface seems like just evil consumerism，is actually，for some，quite a meaningful，ritualistic(例行的) experience.Maybe this happy holiday is not for you.Maybe you think it is silly or even disgusting that Americans choose to bond through，over all other options，shopping.But what you cannot deny is that Black_Friday_has_become_something_bigger_than_deals.It has become a part of a collective and personal culture，where many shoppers are not trying to avoid the trouble and craziness of the day；instead，they are trying to strategically and happily dive into it.And，right now，on living room floors all across America，families are planning how to get the most out of their yearly ritual.1Which of the following does NOT belong to a “collectible experience”？AWaiting with strangers in lines.BRacing to early bird specials.CDigging to find commodities.DTransforming crazy elements.2By saying “Black Friday has become something bigger than deals”，the author means Black Friday _.Awould be enjoyed more if it were less commercialBis a great chance to feel comfort able and relaxedCis a miserable，meaningful and traditional experienceDundergoes a comprehensive evaluation from

Friday.任務(wù)型閱讀Age has its privileges in America，and one of the more important of them is the senior citizen discount.Anyone who has reached a certain agein some cases as low as 55is automatically entitled to dazzling array of price reductions at nearly every level of commercial life.Eligibility(資格) is determined not by ones need but by the date on ones birth certificate.Practically unheard of a generation ago，the discounts have become a routine part of many businessesas common as color televisions in motel rooms and free coffee on airliners.People with gray hair often are given the discounts without even asking for them；yet，millions of Americans above age 60 are healthy and solvent(有支付能力的)Businesses that would never dare offer discounts to college students or anyone under 30 freely offer them to older Americans.The practice is acceptable because of the widespread belief that “elderly” and “needy” are synonymous(同義的)Perhaps that once was true，but today elderly Americans as a group have a lower poverty rate than the rest of the population.To be sure，there is economic diversity within the elderly，and many older Americans are poor.But most of them arent.It is impossible to determine the impact of the discounts on individual companies.For many firms，they are a stimulus to revenue.But in other cases the discounts are given at the expense, directly or indirectly，of younger Americans.Moreover，they are a direct irritant(刺激物) in what some politicians and scholars see as a coming conflict between the generations.Generational tensions are being fueled by continuing debate over Social Security benefits，which mostly involve a transfer of resources from the young to the old.Employment is another sore point.Supported by laws and court decisions，more and more older Americans are declining the retirement dinner in favor of staying on the jobthereby lessening employment and promotion opportunities for younger workers.Far from a kind of charity they once were，senior citizen discounts have become a formidable economic privilege to a group with millions of members who dont need them.It no longer makes sense to treat the elderly as a single group whose economic needs deserve priority over those of others.Senior citizen discounts only enhance the myth that older people cant take care of themselves and need special treatment；and they threaten the creation of a new myth，that the elderly are ungrateful and taking for themselves at the expense of children and other age groups.Senior citizen discounts are the essence of the very thing older Americans are fighting againstdiscrimination by age.IntroductionAge determines whether an American can be given a discount，which is a common 4._ in American business life today.Origin of seniorcitizen
