【分析】
做信息还原题时,先通读短文掌握主旨(本文介绍“无消费日”的起源、相关背景及人们的看法),再逐个分析每个空的上下文逻辑:
1. 空1前介绍“Buy Nothing Day”是节日,后提及创始人,需补充该节日的起源信息;
2. 空2后提到人们需要购买生活必需品,需承接Dave对人们购物需求的认知;
3. 空3前说很多人认为买多才开心,后指出这种想法不对,需体现因果结果;
4. 空4前说明该节日在一年最大购物日之一,需解释该日子的俗称;
5. 空5前是部分人对节日的质疑,后是对节日作用的肯定,需体现转折关系。
【解析】
1. 空1需补充节日起源,选项C(它始于20世纪90年代加拿大温哥华)符合,承接前文节日介绍,引出后文创始人,故选C;
2. 空2需承接Dave对人们购物需求的认知,选项E(Dave知道人们需要买东西)与后文“必须买吃、住、生活享受的东西”衔接自然,故选E;
3. 空3需体现“觉得买多才开心”的结果,选项B(所以他们通常买超过需要的东西)符合因果逻辑,故选B;
4. 空4需说明该购物日的俗称,选项F(人们叫这一天黑色星期五)与前文“最大购物日之一”衔接,故选F;
5. 空5需连接不同观点,选项D(尽管人们有不同想法)体现转折,承接前文质疑,引出后文对节日作用的肯定,故选D。
