没有中间的插入语，A可以，但是有了这个插入语，A就不行了。

tianwan, do you mean that "particlarly the synthetic petrochemical derivatives" may produce awkwardness in modifying "prices"?  if choice A is "price for drugs,"particlarly the synthetic petrochemical derivatives," and then we can choose it. thanks again!

中间的插入语...应该是作为同位语补语修饰前面的drugs而不是price，所以根据紧跟原则，自然要把皮price提前了。。。
