It was a day when stores decided to mark the start of the holiday season In order to draw more customers, they offered great discounts. All products sold very well. This large success resulted in the name Black Friday, it was so named because the stores were "in the black". This financial term means the stoics made a lot of money. However, it was not until around 2002 that Black Friday really started to gain in popularity. Today in the USA, countless advertisers proudly announce their Black Friday sales. They hope to attract shoppers into their stores.Black Friday is a day when many shoppers in the USA go out and buy gifts, even though Christmas Eve is still a more popular day to shop.

Being "Cool" in Middle SchoolA new study shows that gen tie and quiet kids in middle school will grow up to rule. Or, at least, they'll live healthier and more productive lives than the "cool" kids will.The study looked at 13-year-olds who acted old for their age by having "cool" behavior, such as early roma ntic relati on ships. They were see n as "cool" and popular kids. But as they grew up, things cha nged. The study found that these kids ten ded to have problems with drugs and relationships by their early 20s.Their behavior was no Ion ger lin ked with popularity .In stead, they were thought to be less socially skilled by their peers. Besides, the average "cool" kids, by age 22, did more poorly than the average kids in the study. They had a 45 percent greater rate of problems due to drugs and alcohol. They also had a 22 perce nt greater rate of crim inal behavior. The study also found that these kids failed to develop importa nt life skills. They spe nt so much time trying to seem cool. They did n't develop the skills n eeded for meanin gful frien dships.The study followed 86 male and 98 female middle school students for a 10-year period. It has some surprising findings. In particular, the study notes that the so-called "cool" behavior is a predictor （预示）of future problems with drugs and alcohol.
