P-SC5Q9P-SC5
The Achaemenid empire of Persia reached the Indus Valley in the fifth century B.C., bringing the Aramaic script with it, from which was derived both northern and southern India alphabets.
A. the Aramaic script with it, from which was derived both northern and
B. the Aramaic script with it, and from which deriving both the northern and the
C. with it the Aramaic script, from which derive both the northern and the
D. with it the Aramaic script, from which derives both northern and
E. with it the Aramaic script, and deriving from it both the northern and
C为正确答案。唯一的疑问是这里的from which derive both ... and ...这里用derive而不是derives是因为在语法上算倒装结构吗？如果是的话在哪里可以找到依据呢？多谢指点！
肯定是倒装了，应该是介词在句首的倒装用法。不过就算不知道这点也可用排除法推出答案，因为倒装错误在GMAC里也就算是awkward，比代词指代平衡对称等硬伤来说，其只算effective错误，考试的时候千万不可因为倒装而首先排除该选项。
从逻辑上判断，alphabets字母表是从script中起源出来的，因此从句部分derive的宾语应该是script而不是empire或是it，（因为it首先要指代主句主语，也就是empire）。这就决定了从属部分最后紧跟要修饰的名词script，而不是it，这样可以避免引起指代不清的嫌疑，顾A，B两项可以拍出。
E选项不仅啰嗦、平衡对称关系混乱，而且it的指代不清，语法上it指代主句主语empire，但逻辑上它应该指代script，所以排除E
再看C和D，都用了倒装句，倒装句的谓语动词单复数应与倒装部分的主语保持一致，也就是与alphabets一致，应该用derive，排除D
当然，这些说着容易，考场上要用两分钟时间分析出所有线索，还是需要一些功夫的。
Aramaic
n.（名词）
A Semitic language, comprising several dialects, originally of the ancient Arameans but widely used by non-Aramean peoples throughout southwest Asia from the seventh century b.c. to the seventh century a.d. Also called Aramean, Chaldean

这破词谁认识啊，险恶的GMAC
