跪求大神解答OG16 SC103

103 Nobody knows exactly how many languages there are in the word,partly because of the difficulty of distinguishing between a language and the sublanguages or dialects within it, but those who have tried to count typically have found about five thousand.
求大神指教，指代问题，为啥是用within it，选择的是within them。OG 里面的OA 这么写的，不太看得懂：When this example is  referred to with a pronoun, the pronoun should be singular; when the languages being counted are referred to with a pronoun, this pronoun must be plural.

这里的it指代的是a language而不是languages，因为between and连接的是一种语言和这种语言下的方言等等，所以是it呀

不好意思呀，大神，没说明白！

it 指代的是前面的a language，sublanguages or dialects within it ，是说一种语言里的分支出来的子语言和方言

OG16 SC的102题，
Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted in the stride-piano tradition of willie smith and duke ellington, yet in many years he stood apart from the mainstream jazz repertory.
A.Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted
B.Thelonious Monk, the jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work that was rooted both
C.Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk, who produced a body of work rooted
D.Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work that was rooted
E.Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work that rooted both
Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted这句是画线的句子，这样用定语从句修饰主语是没有错的吧！
这种插录语表达也是可以的吧？Thelonious Monk,the jazz pianist and composer,produced a body of...
OA的解释是：The use of a relative clause(who was a jazz pianist...) or an appositiiv (the jazz pianist) introduces unnecessary wordiness and grammatical complexity

103的原题是这样的：

A.and the sublanguages or dialects within it, but those who have tried to count typically have found
B.and the sublanguages or dialects within them, with those who have tried to count typically finding
C.and the sublanguages or dialects within it, but those who have tried counting typically find
D.or the sublanguages or dialects within them, but those who tried to count typically found
E.or the sublanguages or dialects within them, with those who have tried to count typically finding
我选择的答案是B，看题目的解析说的是it指代的是a language。疑惑在于代词不是就近指代吗，那应该指代前面的dialects，所以认为是within them。还有就是within 这个副词放在这儿有点看不懂这句话表达的意思？求大神赐教

你能把话说清楚吗？什么叫“为啥是用within it，选择的是within them”？
a language and the sublanguages or dialects within it
it指代a language

Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted这句是画线的句子，可是为啥是错误的呢？还有一种表达觉得也没问题呀，Thelonious Monk,the jazz pianist and composer,produced a body of work that was rooted both ....答案说着同位语不对，很困惑呢？求大神赐教！！！！
