标题: 请教一道CR题的选项翻译

Which of thefollowing most logically completes the argument below?

Twenty percent of thestores in Morganville's downtown shopping district will fail within five yearsbecause they will be competing directly with the SaveMart discount departmentstore newly opened in East Morganville. Thedowntown shopping district has lost business at this rate before and has alwayscompletely rebounded. Confidence that it will rebound again from the losses itis now about to suffer is ill founded, however, because __________.

A the stores likely to beput out of business by direct competition from SaveMart are the downtownshopping district's anchor stores, on whose ability to draw shoppers many of the otherdowntown stores depend

B the bus line that haslong connected the downtown area of Morganville with East Morganville has atradition of carrying shoppers who reside in East Morganville into downtown Morganville to shop

C when thedowntown shopping district has rebounded before, the business premises of afailed business were typically taken over by a business of the same kind as hadbeen there before

D SaveMart's businessplan for the East Morganville store is based on earning low profits, if any,during the first five years of the store's existence 分析D选项:

E it is conceivable thatthe downtown shopping district could shrink substantially without collapsingaltogether

这道题，我觉得A选项如果能翻译对，就可以选择出来。

A的翻译应该是：那些可能倒闭的商店有吸引顾客的能力，这种能力是其他没倒闭的店要招揽顾客所依赖的。

但是我还是没明白红色的部分，这个句子怎么分析结构？它的正常语序是什么？

楼主的翻译没问题
这次与SM竞争被淘汰出局的是这个商业区的“旗舰店”，在其他商家中，很多家的经营要依靠这些“旗舰店”吸引客源的能力。

A是个倒装

the stores likely to beput out of business by direct competition from SaveMart are the downtownshopping district's anchor stores, on whose ability to draw shoppers many of the otherdowntown stores depend
意思可以近似等同于这个句子（但逻辑上是有差别的）
the stores likely to beput out of business by direct competition from SaveMart are the downtownshopping district's anchor stores, and many of the otherdowntown stores depend on their ability to draw shoppers.
