Sagot :

I believe the correct answer is B. France has both social renown and economic power in the fashion and dance worlds, so English borrows many French words for these areas. It is known that France is the best when it comes to fashion and dance - so it's no wonder that its terms for fashion and dance industry are used throughout the world. English has a lot of words borrowed from French, so D is definitely incorrect. C is incorrect because the French influence is obvious in these areas. A is incorrect because ballet comes from Italy.
