这个题中C选项中from which derive both the northern and the， both...和derive是倒装是主谓吗？正常的是不是应该是both...and...derive from the Aramaic script,请NN讲解。

(A) from which 的 which 指代 it 即 The Achaemenid empire，而从逻辑意思上,which 应该指代script. 根据倒装结构的要求,was 应该用 were

我觉得这里才是最纠结的~
script不应该用单数谓语吗？为毛“根据倒装结构的要求,was 应该用 were”呢？？

我本来选的是A的，A和C的前半句应该是等价的吧~后半句的差别应该就在于单复数了，求NN解析~~！

原文应该是指定把it放前面 Aramaic script放后面应该是后面的which指的是 Aramaic script，如果把it放在which前面容易认为是指代it，这种倒装在长难句中也经常遇到。只是选择答案的话可以看到非限定从中的谓语应该为复数，为什么加the我认为因为是指定的alphabets。像一般不说southern china 而是说south china 或 the southern part of China

这是另外一个帖子偷来的解析，我不懂啊不懂啊不懂……

首先我觉得A和 B是可以最先排除的，因为对于A来说which应当指代Aramaic script,而不是it。所以排除
对于B来说，定语从句的先行词前可以加介词（如from），但是不可以加连词，如and。所以排除。
对于D来说，定语从句的主谓不一致。可以理解的语序应当是the northern and the southern Indian alphabets(注意这里主语是复数形式） derive from which( 这里指Aramaic script）。从这里看，就应当选C了。
E一看就不对，所以忽略不计了。

这只是我的想法哈，不对的地方还请NN指教~

我觉得，首先，Which指代the Aramaic script，为避免修饰不清，优选“with it the Aramaic script”结构，
然后，根据逻辑意思，应该是both the northern and the southern India alphabets derive from the Aramaic script,后半部分倒装

A选项的话，which指代it，逻辑意思不对
而且A的结构为derive A from B,A was derived from B,这里A为复数名词，所以应该改为were.

而且朗文字典上：对于derive 的用法
derive：
1 [T] to get something, usually a pleasant feeling, from something or someone。(derive及物动词的时候，一般指的是feeling)
derive sth from: He derived some comfort from the fact that he wasn't the only one to fail the exam.
2 [I] to develop or come from something else（起源，由。。而来）
[+ from] This word is derived from Latin.
