football matches.
For some people, shopping is a big part of their Thanksgiving tradition as well. For many years, the day
after Thanksgiving is considered the first day of the holiday shopping season in the United States. Many stores
have sales on that day. Many people go to the sales because they can save money. The shoppers are looking
for bargains (特价商品). This busy shopping day is called"Black Friday".
Recently, researchers have noticed another busy shopping day. The Monday after Thanksgiving has
become known as"Cyber Monday". On this day, more and more shoppers buy their holiday gifts online.
One survey (调查) found that 80% of the Internet users buy gifts online. The survey found that shoppers
in one city will spend one third of their holiday budget (预算) online.
But most shoppers still do not want to buy online because they don"t feel safe. Here is some helpful advice
to keep shoppers safe.
First, don"t follow an e-mail link to a shopping website. Type the shop"s address into your browser (浏览
器) yourself. Also, make sure that you are shopping on a safe server. You should see a little lock at the bottom
of the screen. The picture means you are on a safe server and it"s safe to shop. The last tip is to use credit
cards (信用卡) online, not other cards. |  | | 用方框中所给的词语的适当形势填空，使短文正确、通顺、连贯（每词限用一次）。 | | not support, zoo, care for, keep, good, hardly, surprise, for, much, be suitable for | | 阅读理解。 | "Depend on yourself" is what nature says to everyone. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. But
