解析
【分析】做信息还原题时,需先通读全文把握主旨,再逐空结合上下文语境、逻辑关系匹配选项。本文围绕“Buy Nothing Day”的起源、背景、时间及人们的看法展开:第1空需衔接“Buy Nothing Day”的起源,对应选项C;第2空需承接后文“人们需要买必需品”的内容,对应E;第3空需承接前文“人们觉得要多买才快乐”的结果,对应B;第4空需解释前文“11月第四个周五是大购物日”的别称,对应F;第5空需衔接前文“不同看法”与后文“节日的作用”的转折关系,对应D。
【解析】1. 第1空:前文介绍“Buy Nothing Day”这一节日,后文说明它是Ted Dave的想法,选项C“它始于20世纪90年代加拿大温哥华”符合介绍节日起源的逻辑,故选C;2. 第2空:后文提到人们需要购买吃、生活等必需品,选项E“Dave知道人们需要买东西”衔接上下文,说明Dave理解人们的实际需求,故选E;3. 第3空:前文指出很多人认为要多买东西才快乐,选项B“所以他们通常买超过需要的东西”承接上文,体现这种想法导致的结果,故选B;4. 第4空:前文说明“Buy Nothing Day”在11月第四个周五,是一年最大的购物日之一,选项F“人们称这一天为‘黑色星期五’”解释了该日子的别称,故选F;5. 第5空:前文提到人们对“Buy Nothing Day”有不同看法,后文说明节日确实有积极作用,选项D“尽管人们有不同想法”衔接上下文的转折关系,故选D。
