 今天学的词组是Black Friday 2,B-l-a-c-k F-r-i-d-a-y。美国人把感恩节过后的星期五称作Black Friday -- 黑色星期五。为什么呢?因为美国商店在这天总是会提早开门、减价促销 ,代表圣诞采购季节的开始,美国人则纷纷上街抢购圣诞礼物。即使平时赔钱的商家这一天也会转亏为盈。黑色在这里代表的是财务状况进入佳境,而不是灰暗的意思。 


不过呢,用在别的地方,black的确有黑暗不祥的意思。美国历史上股市崩盘的灾难性的日子都被称为黑色。比如1869年9月24号星期五,美国黄金市场大跌波及股市 -- 人称Black Friday。还比如1929年10月29日的黑色星期二 -- Black Tuesday,美国股价暴跌,国家从此陷入经济大萧条。今天学的词组是Black Friday...
