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
请问NN们，如果C选项如果把AND去掉 对吗??此外OG解释C说
"and even though "creates a sentence fragment.我不太能理解这点。。。。

个人理解：
这里作者要表达的是转折的意思，那么就应该是but
although，even though都是让步，不是转折，意思不对。

如果是and even though,就会发现没有主句(and even though.........不是完整的句子，完整的是even though........,they......)，因此fragment

说得好！

even though 是从句的signer，就像是although/when等等，你们又看到过这些词前面加连接词的吗。所以看到就直接排掉

请问E选项OG解释什么含义？
supplementing is a modifier when a contrasting clause ia needed???什么意思

pls note that the answer is D.  
C also is the correct one, if you take out the 'and'.

although     conjunction
though, albeit, despite the fact that, even if, even though, notwithstanding, while


even though ==> used to emphasize that something is true although something else has happened or is true.
Even though he's 24 now, he's still like a little child.
I can still remember, even though it was so long ago.

可是答案明明是选d ，就是although那个选项啊。这句话本来不就是想表达让步的意思吗，primarily是主要的，那么后面就对应的是次要的呀，并不是转折关系的，转折关系应该是重点在转折后的部分，至少二者的地位是平等的，不可能侧重前者的。
