Text 3 While there are rival contenders,the title of the world's first department store belongs,perhaps,to Harding,Howell&Co's Grand Fashionable Magazine at 89 Pall Mall in St James's,London.Opened in 1796,this handsome Georgian shop was divided into four departments,offering furs and fans,haberdashery,jewellery and clocks,and millinery,or hats.Harding,Howell&Co was focused on the needs and desires of fashionable women.Here,at last women were free to browse and shop,safely and decorously,away from home and from the company of men.These,for the main part,were newly affiuent middle class women,their good fortune-and the department store itself-nurtured and shaped by the Industrial Revolution.This was transforming life in London and the length and breadth of Britain at a dizzying pace on the back of energetic free trade,fecund invention,steam and sail,and a seemingly inexhaustible supply of expendable cheap labour.It is no coincidence that,from the mid 19th Century,the department store adopted the look and feel of the way we have known it for more than 150 years with the opening,by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert,of the Great Exhibition in 1851.This was held in the Crystal Palace,a truly revolutionary structure,designed by Joseph Paxton and located in Hyde Park,not far from Harrods,which,from 1905,became Europe's biggest department store.The threat of the shopping mall coincided with a global acceptance of the Internet,personal computers and smart phones-the rise of online shopping.Against the odds the department store has survived.People may choose to buy online,yet they also like to see what's on offer in person.Department stores present a good snapshot of current trends in fashion,design,household goods and gadgets.As a result,forward-looking department stores have re-imagined themselves as retail theatres.Intriguingly,internet-savvy customers in Britain still enjoy shopping in the fabric departments of John Lewis department stores much as their predecessors did 150 years ago.Think Crystal Palace 1851 with 21st Century marketing and communications technology and you can see just why the department store remains hard to beat,an endearing and enduring cultural and retail fixture on our busiest city streets and squares.The text mainly discusses______A.the reason why women like department storesB.department stores in BritainC.the culture of department storesD.the history of department stores

参考解析

解析:主旨大意题。根据文章中对各时期百货大楼的描述,可以推断D项“百货商店的历史”为正确选项。【干扰排除】A项“女性喜欢百货商店的原因”,原文中只有第二段介绍了这一点,其他都与此选项内容无关,所以A项可排除;B项“英国的百货商店”不够具体,所以此选项不能算是文章主旨;C项“百货商店的文化”,原文中除了提到百货商店的文化,还提到百货商店的建筑、发展等,所以C项不能全面概括文章主旨。
