[求助] OG11th-5

 OG 11^th 15.

 

The Iroquois were primarily planters, but supplementing their cultivation of maize, squash, and beans with fishing and hunting.

(A)   but supplementing

(B)   and had supplemented

(C)   and even though they supplemented

(D)  although they supplemented

(E)   but with supplementing

 

我对正确答案(C)没有问题

我想问选项(A)

我明白在这题的logical里想表达contrast

But一样可以表contrast阿

再来就是我不太明白什么时候but（对等连接词）可以因为主词相同而省略，什么时候就不能省略

难道跟逗号有关？

是否因为”, but “ 就应该要接完整的句子？  所以如果没有逗号就可以因为主词相同而省略？

 

恳请NN帮忙解惑~

感激不尽

....actually the answer is D.hahaha

有沒有comma, A都不會對, 因為第一個were是系動詞, 而不應該被omitted的were是助動詞, 不同function同一spelling的verb不能omitted...

minirainbow

AlienX的意思是说

就算(A)中真的是因为主词相同而省略

动词的形式也应该是「, supplemented 」
            这样的话就是对的？

 

所以主词的省略跟有没有逗号是没关系的？
