为什么复数要配单数谓语动词？

吊坠

SC 105 105. Among the emotions on display in the negotiating room were anger for repeatedly raising the issue over and over again and preventing the raw wounds from earlier battles from ever beginning to heal.
(A) were anger for repeatedly raising the issue over and over again and preventing the raw wounds from earlier battles from ever beginning to heal
(B) was anger for repeatedly raising the issue and preventing the raw wounds from earlier battles from ever beginning to heal
(C) were anger over repeatedly raising the issue and preventing the raw wounds from earlier battles to begin healing
(D) was anger about the issue, which was raised over and over, and preventing the wounds from earlier battles, still raw, to begin healing
(E) were anger about the issue, which was raised repeatedly, and preventing the raw wounds from earlier battles to begin to heal

为什么答案是B emotion不是复数吗？如果说是因为among emotions，那SC得106就是Among the objects found in the excavated temple were small terra-cotta effigies left by supplicants


为什么呢？

这句是倒装句啊，主语是anger for repeatedly raising the issue over and over again and preventing the raw wounds from earlier battles from ever beginning to heal，谓语当然要用was了啊，核心词是anger~
