5. Close Read:Why Stand In Line on Black Friday? • Brain Storm: • Why do people like to shop? • What are the most common stores to shop at on Black Friday? • Has Black Friday gotten in the way of Holidays? • i.e – stores being open on Thanksgiving, and Christmas being all about the gifts.

6. THEORY 1 • The first recorded use of the term “Black Friday” was applied to the financial crisis: specifically, the crash of the U.S. gold market on September 24, 1869. • Two notoriously ruthless Wall Street financiers, Jay Gould and Jim Fisk, worked together to buy up as much as they could of the nation’s gold, hoping to drive the price sky-high and sell it for astonishing profits. • On that Friday in September, the conspiracy finally unraveled, sending the stock market into free-fall and bankrupting everyone from Wall Street barons to farmers.  • THEORY 2 • Back in the 1950s, police in the city of Philadelphia used the term to describe the chaos that ensued on the day after Thanksgiving, when hordes of suburban shoppers and tourists flooded into the city in advance of the big Army-Navy football game held on that Saturday every year. • Not only would Philly cops not be able to take the day off, but they would have to work extra-long shifts dealing with the additional crowds and traffic. • Shoplifters would also take advantage of the bedlam in stores to make off with merchandise, adding to the law enforcement headache. • THEORY 3 • By 1961, “Black Friday” had caught on in Philadelphia, to the extent that the city’s merchants and boosters tried unsuccessfully to change it to “Big Friday” in order to remove the negative connotations. • The term didn’t spread to the rest of the country until much later, however, and as recently as 1985 it wasn’t in common use nationwide. • Sometime in the late 1980s, however, retailers found a way to reinvent Black Friday and turn it into something that reflected positively, rather than negatively, on them and their customers. • The result was the “red to black” concept of the holiday mentioned earlier, and the notion that the day after Thanksgiving marked the occasion when America’s stores finally turned a profit. (In fact, stores traditionally see bigger sales on the Saturday before Christmas.) History of Black Friday

The old people did not know what to say. They did not like to give their daughter to the lion, yet they did not wish to enrage the King of Beasts. At last the father said, “We feel high honored by your Majesty’s proposal, but you see our daughter is a tender young thing, and we fear that in the vehemence of your affection you might possibly do her some injury. Might I venture to suggest that your Majesty should have your claws removed, and your teeth extracted? Then we would gladly consider your proposal again.” The lion was so much in love that he had his claws trimmed and his big teeth taken out. But when he came again to the parents of the young girl they simply laughed in his face, and bade him do his worst. The king of the jungle had been tamed. 2. What is the theme of this passage?
