B Correct answer
Explanation

‘are studied not only’ There is error of parallelism. Comparison is being made between 'studies in European countries' and 'oriental countries'. But we compare like things. There is no other option for ‘studied’…so we use ‘not only’ after ‘studied’ and before ‘in European countries’.
