解析:
我们根据上下文逻辑逐一匹配选项:
1. 空前提到“无消费日”是呼吁人们一天不购物的节日,空后介绍该节日是Ted Dave的创意,C选项“它于20世纪90年代始于加拿大温哥华”承接介绍节日的起源背景,符合语境。
2. 空后提到人们必须购买维持饮食、生活和享受生活的物品,B选项“Dave知道人们是有购物需求的”引出下文内容,逻辑通顺。
3. 空前提到很多人认为必须买很多东西才能获得快乐,D选项“所以他们通常会购买超出自身实际需求的物品”是该错误认知带来的结果,衔接自然。
4. 空前提到这是一年里最盛大的购物日之一,A选项“人们把这一天叫做黑色星期五”补充说明这个购物日的名称,符合常识和语境。
5. 空后引用部分人的表述“就只有一天而已”,是对无消费日作用的质疑,F选项“一些人认为‘无消费日’根本没法真正起到作用”引出这类观点,和后文呼应。
本题多余选项为E。
