NothingDay“黑色星期五”与“零购物日”什么是“黑色星期五”？“黑色星期五”是美国感恩节的第二天，感恩节是每年十一月的第四个星期四。由于“黑色星期五”这一天是美国的节假日，长期以来，它都是消费者开始为圣诞节购物的热门时间。过去几十年来，大公司纷纷在当天给出折扣和特价，这一天也变得越来越受欢迎。“黑色星期五”是否已经失控？很多人都喜欢特价商品，但也有人认为，“黑色星期五”这种活动会刺激人们购买他们不需要也买不起的东西。许多人似乎完全丧失了消费的理性和社会礼仪。网上有许多视频，顾客为了抢夺特价商品而大打出手。还有人认为，“黑色星期五”对小商店不利，因为后者无法像大公司那样大幅度降价。“黑色星期五”与“零购物日”“黑色星期五”的替代方案是什么？在“黑色星期五”当天，您可以反其道而行，什么也不买。1997年以来，“零购物日”一直与“黑色星期五”在同一天举行。规则很简单。只要在24小时内不买任何东西就可以了。许多人都惊讶地发现，什么都不买实际上很困难。活动的目的是让人们对消费有更多的思考，对买什么和去哪儿买做出更好的决定。合乎道德的消费除了减少消费和不购买不必要的物品外，“零购物日”还希望提高人们道德消费的意识。例如，您可以避免“快时尚”消费，即购买非常便宜的、穿几次就会丢弃的衣服。这种意识既有利于保护环境，也有利于为您省钱。consumer/kənˈsjuːmə(r)/n.消费者；顾客；用户enterprise/ˈentəpraɪz/n.公司，企业bargain/ˈbɑːɡɪn/n.廉价购买或廉价出售之物ethical/ˈeθɪkl/adj.（有计划的）活动，运动enhance/ɪnˈhɑːns/v.合乎道德的；道德的TextBWords&Expressions
