阅读下面材料,在空白处填写1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

    My doorbell rings at 11 am. On the step, I find an elderly Chinese lady holding the hand of a little boy. In her other hand (be) a paper bag. She is the little boy's grandmother, and her daughter, Nicole, bought house next door last October. Nicole has (obvious) told her mother that I am having a heart operation shortly, and the result is that her mother has decided (supply) me with meals.

    I know what is inside the paper bag — a bottle of hot soup and a (contain) with a meal of rice, vegetables and meat. It's become a daily occurrence.

     us is somewhat difficult because she doesn't speak English and all I can say in Chinese is hello. Once, she brought an iPad as well as the food. She pointed to the screen, showed at message from her daughter telling me that her mother wanted to know the food was all right for me.

    So here we are, two grandmothers, neither of (we) able to speak the other's language but communicating one way or another (with some help from technology). The doorbell keeps (ring) and there is the familiar brown paper bag, handed smilingly to me.

    We all know that the Friday after Thanksgiving means a mad dash to the shopping centre for ridiculous sales. But how did this bargain shopping get {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(it) start?

    In fact, the first Black Friday had nothing {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (do) with Thanksgiving or shopping. The origin of Black Friday as we know it today started in Philadelphia during the 1950s and 1960s. Crowds of people would come to town the day after Thanksgiving for the annual Army­Navy football game to be held the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (follow) Saturday. Streets and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (store) were always crowded, which was great for business but made easy­pickings for shoplifters (行窃者). Local police called this “Black Friday”. Not only did they have to deal with extra traffic {#blank#}5{#/blank#} shoplifting, but they had to work extra hours and couldn't request the day off.

    The term didn't go national {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the late 1980s, but the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (explain) changed. While shopkeepers {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (general) suffered financial losses most of the year, the increase of holiday shoppers marked the first day of real profit. In traditional accounting (会计) practices a few years ago, losses {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (record) in red ink, and profits in black ink. So the day after Thanksgiving, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} companies go “into the black” and make a profit, became Black Friday.
