  分析:该句为主从复合句。句中which are always lighted by a politician, a great sportsman, or a super star为which引导的定语从句,修饰先行词the Christmas lights,which在从句中作主语。

  译文:在12月(这里的)气氛特别喜庆,因为圣诞(彩)灯总是由一位政治家、伟大的运动员或超级明星点亮。

  1.C 考查细节理解。根据第二段最后一句"In December the atmosphere is especially festive because of the Christmas lights which are always lighted by a politician,a great sportsman,or a super star"可知,在12月(这里的)气氛特别喜庆,因为圣诞(彩)灯总是由一位政治家、伟大的运动员或超级明星点亮。根据第二段第二句可知,Selfridges百货公司的建筑和橱窗装饰都给人留下了深刻的印象,但与题干中所提及的12月份无关;根据第二段第三句可知,这里有欧洲最大的音乐商店,也与12月的特别气氛无关;D项文章中没有提及。

  2.B 考查细节理解。根据第四段,尤其是第四段第二句"One of the oldest and best for food is probably Borough Market on the south bank of the Thames"可知,在Borough Market可以买到最好的食物,据此可知,如果你要享受美食,你可以去Borough Market。根据最后一段第三句"For clothes,Camden Market is the place"可知,Camden Market是一个卖衣服的地方,而不是卖食物的地方,故A项错误;根据第三段最后一句"There's also an organic food superstore"可知,Kensington High Street有有机食品商店,并没有提到美食,故C项错误;根据最后一段第一句"Portobello Road Market on a Saturday is your best choice for jewelry or collector's items"可知,Portobello Road Market卖珠宝或收藏品,而不是食品,故D项错误。

  3.D 考查推理判断。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了英国几个吸引游客的购物去处,包括Oxford Street、Kensington High Street、Borough Market 等。据此可以判断,本文最可能摘自旅游指南,故D项正确。

  A couple of months ago,we were in a hurry to get somewhere,when our 6­year­old daughter was just to slow things down.In response I became impatient and unkind.As I unloaded my apology,she said,"Mom,it's OK.You've never been a mom before.This is your first time.You're just trying.It's OK."

  Her response humbled(使......卑微)me.She had been able to give me what I had refused to give her just moments before-mercy,understanding and sympathy.And I needed it.We all do.Actually,there may be nothing more needed today in our nation and communities.

  It's no wonder former Baptist Church member Megan has transformed her idea.Megan spent 20 years representing her church's beliefs with messages of hate towards gays,Jews and those who support abortion.When she finally started civil dialog with her"enemies",she found"people on the other side were not the ones I had been led to believe..."Finally,she left the faith of her family.What surprised her most was the forgiveness and understanding she experienced from her former"enemies".

  Her lessons are what we all need.As she accurately describes about our cultural climate,"we have grown more and more divided and have broken the world into'us' and 'them'".But this will"not take us where we want to go".Instead,she concludes"we have to talk and listen to people we disagree with".

My experience with my daughter teaches me that the ability to engage with"the other",to avoid tough judgments,and to show sympathy is learned first,and practiced best,at
