They asked restaurants in the neighborhood to donate(赠送) the food. They made posters(海报) and talked to other students about it. The dinner was a big success, and many students agreed not to buy anything on November 29. the students at the high school liked the idea of this new tradition. Next year. they want to have another dinner to inform more people about Buy Nothing Day!

解析 事实细节题。文章第一段前三句是说“在圣诞节前,人们买很多的礼物。但是有些人认为他们买的礼物过多。于是,他们就发起了一个特别的日子—零购物日。”由此可知,人们选定零购物日是因为在圣诞节时他们购买过多的礼物。因此选B。
