答案是选对了，但是不明白even though,although,while在引导表转折的句子时用法有什么区别，请大家赐教呢

我记得OG12说的貌似是while在句首,除了引导转折以外,还可以引导表示同时发生的事件...于是它就会有歧义...

携影说的while用法是og12-131 题（正解）
OG12- 31 Even though many of her colleagues were convinced that genes were relatively simple and static,Brabara McClintock adhered to her own more complicated ideas about how genes might operate, and in 1983,at the age of 81,was awarded a Nobel Prize for her discovery that the genes in corn are capable of moving from one chromosomal site to another.

OG 12-90 Although early soap operas were first aired on evening radio in the 1920s,they were moved to the daytime hours in the 1930s when the evening schedule became crowded with comedians and variety shows.

OG 12-19 The Iroquois were primarily planters, although they supplemented their cultivation of maize,squash,and beans with fishing and hunting.

OG 12-98 Even though Clovis points,spear points with longitudinal grooves chipped onto their faces,have been found all over North America,they are named for the New Mexico site where they were first discovered in 1932.

这些是OG 正确原句，我没看出although 和 even though 有啥区别，望NN指教

我感觉even though跟although的意思没啥区别，都表示比较强烈的让步。
while也表示让步但在程度上跟前两者有所区别，但是while表让步时只能在句首。在句中时表示两个事件同时发生。

跟1楼的说法好像正好冲突了，我自己去看看到底while是放在句首有歧义还是放在句中有歧义
PS：狮子座的同类，signature很符合狮子的个性哦~赞一个

我只知道even though, although表强转折，while表一般转折，歧义的我不清楚了，呵呵
