About Black Friday

關(guān)于黑色星期五

Black Friday is one of the busiest shopping days in the USA. There are two popular theories as to why the day after Thanksgiving Day is called Black Friday. One theory is that the wheels of vehicles in heavy traffic on the day after Thanksgiving Day left many black markings on the road surface, leading to the term Black Friday.

黑色星期五是美國瘋狂購物日之一。有兩種流行說法可以解釋為什么感恩節(jié)之后的這一天被稱為“黑色星期五”。其中一種說法是感恩節(jié)之后這一天擁擠的交通會(huì)使車輪在路面留下很多黑色痕跡，就有了“黑色星期五”這個(gè)說法。

The other theory is that the term Black Friday comes from an old way of recording business accounts. Losses were recorded in red ink and profits in black ink. Many businesses, particularly small businesses, started making profits prior to Christmas. Many hoped to start showing a profit, marked in black ink, on the day after Thanksgiving Day.
