Shoppers on Black Friday， the traditional start of the holiday shopping season in America， are notoriously aggressive. Some even start queuing outside stores before dawn to be the first to lay their hands on heavily discounted merchandise. Despite the frenzy at many stores， however， the recession appears to have accelerated the pace at which shoppers are abandoning bricks and mortar（传统实体商场） in favor of online retailers——e-tailers. So this year Black Friday （so named because it is supposed to put shops into profit for the year） also marks the start of many conventional retailers" attempts to regain the initiative.
E-commerce holds particular appeal in straitened times as it enables people to compare pries across retailers quickly and easily. Buyers can sometimes avoid local sales taxes online， and shipping is often free. No wonder， then， that online shopping continues to grow even as the offline sort shrinks.
The shift in spending to the Internet is good news for companies like P&G that lack retail outlets of their own. But it is a big concern for bricks-and-mortar retailers， whose prices are often higher than those of e-tailers， since they must bear the extra expense of running stores. Happily， however， conventional retailers are in a better position to fight back than last year， when overstocking forced them to resort to ruinous discounting.
The most obvious response to the growth of e-tailing is for conventional retailers to redouble their own efforts online. The online arms of big retailers are performing well， on the whole. Retailers are also trying to make shopping seem fun and exciting to counteract the economic gloom. One common tactic is to set up "pop-up" stores， which appear for a short time before vanishing again， to foster a sense of novelty and urgency. Following the lead of many bricks-and-mortar outfits， eBay recently launched a pop-up in New York where customers could inspect items before ordering them.
Stores are also trying to lure customers by offering services that are not available online. Best Buy， a consumer-electronics retailer， has started selling music lessons along with its musical instruments. Lululemon Athletica， which sells sports clothes， offers free yoga classes. The idea is to bring people back to its shops regularly， increasing the likelihood that they will develop the habit of shopping there.
Why is the recession of conventional business accelerating？ 查看材料
A. Because conventional retailers don"t care for their customers.
B. Because more people are waiting for the best bargain.
C. Because stores compete by offering discounted merchandise.
D. Because many customers begin to favor shopping onhne.

The relationship between formal education and economic growth in poor countries is widely misunderstood by economists and politicians alike. Progress in both area is undoubtedly necessary for the social， political and intellectual development of these and all other societies; however， the conventional view that education should be one of the very highest priorities for promoting rapid economic development in poor countries is wrong. We are fortunate that is it， because new educational systems there and putting enough people through them to improve economic performance would require two or three generations. The findings of a research institution have consistently shown that workers in all countries can be trained on the job to achieve radical higher productivity and， as a result， radically higher standards of living.
Ironically， the first evidence for this idea appeared in the United States. Not long ago， with the country entering a recessing and Japan at its pre-bubble peak， the U.S. workforce was derided as poorly educated and one primary cause of the poor U.S. economic performance. Japan was， and remains， the global leader in automotive-assembly productivity. Yet the research revealed that the U.S. factories of Honda， Nissan， and Toyota achieved about 95 percent of the productivity of their Japanese counterparts——a result of the training that U.S. workers received on the job.
What is the real relationship between education and economic development? We have to suspect that continuing economic growth promotes the development of education even when governments don"t force it. After all， that"s how education got started. When our ancestors were hunters and gatherers 10，000 years ago， they didn"t have time to wonder much about anything besides finding food. Only when humanity began to get its food in a more productive way was there time for other things.
As education improved， humanity"s productivity potential increased as well. When the competitive environment pushed our ancestors to achieve that potential， they could in turn afford more education. This increasingly high level of education is probably a necessary， but not a sufficient， condition for the complex political systems required by advanced economic performance.
Thus poor countries might not be able to escape their poverty traps without political changes that may be possible only with broader formal education. A lack of formal education， however， doesn"t constrain the ability of the developing world"s workforce to substantially improve productivity for the foreseeable future. On the contrary， constraints on improving productivity explain why education isn"t developing more quickly there than it is.
