Question

【題目】November 11th, also called “Guanggun Jie” in Chinese, began as a day for the singles, to celebrate the fact that they are proud of being single.

It’s said that it came from Nanjing University in 1993. A group of single male students got together to discuss how to get a reason to have fun while they couldn’t celebrate Valentine’s Day. It got the name "Singles' Day" because the number "1" looked like a person. After graduation（畢業(yè)）, these college students passed the university tradition to the society. Singles' Day has been largely popularized on the Internet and is now celebrated by young people in some areas outside China as well.

After 2009, Singles’ Day, also known as Double 11, became an online purchase festival. On this day, some shops’ owners in China would offer strong promotion online to attract (吸引) the singles to buy their products.
