1. Among在句首是倒装。介词短语放句首，句子用全倒装。原句的结构是The rate at which trees grow, as seen in the ringsvisible in the cross sections of their trunks , is believed to be among the surest indications of sunspot cycles. as seen正如在在它们的年轮上看到的，前面修饰的对象应该是树的生长 2. 'as seen in the rings...' is a modifier that must be placed next to the thing that it modifies, which is 'the rate at which trees grow'. 3. 还有on Earth的位置不对，on earth放句首的话变成修饰整句话了，而不是indication，这样的话就把情况限定发生在地球上，但是e不是这个意思。the rate that trees grow也是不对的,只能用 the rate at which trees grow。

you can spot the inversion because there is nothing before 'are' that could possibly be a subject. the entire preceding portion of the sentence is a giant prepositional phrase. the placement of 'on earth' is also much better in e than in a. - e says what it's supposed to say: we're looking at indications that are on earth. (this answer choice implies that better indicators are available elsewhere - presumably closer to the sun.) - a says that tree growth is believed to be a good indicator by people on earth (--> martians beg to differ). and finally, yes, 'the rate that' is simply... wrong. things don't 'happen a rate'; they happen at a rate, so that preposition has to stay. same reason you can say 'the grocery store at which i bought that food', and not 'the grocery store that i bought that food'.

此句是介词短语作表语提到句首，整个句子使用倒装结构。原句=The rate at which trees grow, as seen in the rings..., is believed to be among the surest indications of sunspot cycles. on Earth修饰indications，主语是the rate，谓语动词用单数is。
