A
Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks to family,health, and life in general. However, Black Friday has turned it into business.

However, Black Friday has nowadays allowed society to ignore this as individuals long for something that they do not need or even truly want. Shopping on Black Friday becomes a sign of a shift into a culture that values material wealth over spending time with loved ones. People are willing to force their way through the crowds in their desperate search for marked-down sweaters and necklaces.

They are devoted to mapping out shopping routes and making organized schedules for which stores to hit first. By drawing individuals out to shopping centers with “matchless savings”, businesses encourage this behavior of ignoring Thanksgiving. Many families take their home-cooked meals while camping out at the door of shopping centers.With each new year, Thanksgiving is becoming victim to over-commercialization—switching from a meaningful time for family to a day dedicated to products and profit.

Families have lost sight of what is truly important in life,and have found reasons in debating between a low-cost HD television and appreciation for what they already have. Remember that Thanksgiving should be a day on which people are grateful for all that they have.

(2017·湖南郴州质检)Both of my parents worked full-time when I was a little girl,so my grandmother would stay at our house during the day. We would watch game shows in the living room. Our favorite was ThePriceisRight. We would call out our answers along with the contestants.

That was okay with me, though,because the one thing I liked better than watching game shows with my grandmother was helping her bake (烘烤) cakes. Watching her in the kitchen was amazing: she never seemed to need the recipes but everything she made tasted delicious.

As I got older, she let me help with the easy parts, such as measuring the sugar. The day she let me separate the eggs, I felt like I had found complete pleasure.

The love of baking, however, stayed with me. I started baking by myself, and even if the cookies ended up burnt sometimes, more often they turned out pretty well. I tried out new recipes, and whenever I got to a thorny part, I would call my grandmother for advice. Sometimes I would call her just to talk, too. I felt like I could talk to her about anything.

Last week, I found a recipe book she made for me. It included her recipes for brownies, cookies, and my favorite, lemon pie. As I looked through the pages, I thought I could hear her
