Explanation

The industrial specialization of the listed cities aligns with global economic patterns. Detroit is historically recognized as the 'Motor City,' serving as the headquarters for major corporations like Ford and General Motors [3]. Antwerp is the world's leading diamond hub, where approximately 84% of the world's rough diamonds are traded and processed, maintaining a centuries-old tradition of diamond cutting and polishing [4]. Tokyo, as a major coastal industrial center in Japan, is a significant hub for shipbuilding, benefiting from its strategic maritime location [4]. Harbin, located in Northeast China, is a major center for heavy industry, particularly known for its steel production and power equipment manufacturing. Therefore, the correct matching is Detroit-Motorcar (1), Antwerp-Diamond cutting (2), Tokyo-Shipbuilding (4), and Harbin-Steel (3), which corresponds to the sequence 1-2-4-3.
