    A study by Oxford Economics for the British Fashion Council (BFC) found that the business 【B4】______about £21 billion to GDP directly, twice as much as car making. High fashion【B5】______for only a fraction of that, but top-end, trend-setting design sits at the heart of the broader retail market. The BFC, which stages London Fashion Week,【B6】______that its six days will have yielded perhaps £100 million in orders.

【B9】

选项 A、downsides
B、features
C、advantages
D、culture

答案A

解析 根据第四段段首的But可知,本段内容与第三段内容相反。上段讲时尚产业的 优势,再结合本段第二句中的…have trouble…“有麻烦”可知,downside“短板,下降趋势, 负面”,符合题意,故A.downsides为正确答案。feature“特征”,advantage“优势”,culture“文 化”均不符合题意,故排除。
