og13 132题 og解释疑惑（DE选项）有劳各位!

既然都回帖了我再谈谈我对这道题的感想。 其实可以换一种思路做题。比如在考上上这么一坨句子，猛一看看不出双主语来怎么办。可以这样子，你看见although出现在开头且大多数选项里，那先看although. Although什么意思？就是 虽然。。。但是。。。 这里面但是可不能用But啊亲！！ 我们知道那个所谓的”但是“后面是个完整的句子。往后一看 ： 题目里有 ”heirlooms are....‘ 也就是说这句话是 “虽然（）。。。。但是H是。。。”那怎样表达最有效呢，肯定是“虽然H 怎么怎么样，但是H是。。。” 所以although 后面紧随 H tomatoes. 这么一看就剩下B了， 咱看看B 我去，内部句子完整对比清晰， 最关键的是你一下子就读懂了，这分明正确答案。 我个人体会一般你一下子读懂的那个句子是正确答案的可能性最大。因为它简洁，清晰，对比清楚，平行，才能让你一下子读懂。那些阴山雾罩的选项往往是wordy ungrammatical

这贴貌似很久了，正好看到。版主我觉得E不对主要是因为出现了双主语。诚如你说的H tomatoes后面的东西都 ...

还是疑惑D选项。（我理解D缺少转折的问题）

你说D扩折号前后连接了两个完整的句子，所以要连词。

那么正确答案B选项，前后也是完整的句子啊，为什么没有连词却正确？

另外，扩折号到底是当什么使用，有说冒号，分号，逗号都可以。

如果当分号使用也可以不用连接词吧。

我凌乱了，求解救！！！

B前面不是有个although么那不就是连词么顺便说一下althugh是连词不是介词后面一定是主谓宾的

关于although 的用法， 请参考Baby的回复 from ： http://forum.chasedream.com/thread-527959-1-1.html：
我觉得吧，这题选A是没问题的，只是OG说although后面必须是完整的clause，这点我不认同。
反例包括：
1. 你举的例子
158. Although accounting for only 5 percent of the world's population, United States citizens consume 28 percent of its nonrenewable resources, drive more than one-third of its automobiles, and use 21 times more water per capita than Europeans do.

2. OG12 Q35正确句子：
35.    Along with the drop in producer prices announced yesterday, the strong retail sales figures released today seem to indicate that the economy, although growing slowly, is not nearing a recession.

3. 这里最后一个贴子有同学提到的prep的例子：
http://www.manhattangmat.com/forums/1000-sc-677-t1545.html
1#Although unhappy with the high rent her company was paying for its suburban office building, the chief executive recognized rental rates for buildings in the suburbs as far lower than it typically is for property that is located within the city limits.
2#Although eradicated in the United States, polio continues elsewhere and could be brought into the country by visitors.

4. Imagination and Heart by Cooper, James Fenimore
Although deluded, weak, and even indiscreet, Julia was not indelicate.

Usage Note: As conjunctions, although and though are generally interchangeable: Although (or though) she smiled, she was angry. Although is usually placed at the beginning of its clause (as in the preceding example), whereas though may occur elsewhere and is the more common term when used to link words or phrases, as in wiser though poorer. In certain constructions, only though is acceptable: Fond though (not although) I am of sports, I'd rather not sit through another basketball game.

我发现的规律是：在以上列举的although后面不跟complete clause但是正确的句子里
1. "although" is placed at the beginning of its "chunk" (next to comma)
2. 就算把原句的"although"去掉，所得到的句子语法上仍然是正确的。例如：
Accounting for only 5 percent of the world's population, United States citizens consume 28 percent of its nonrenewable resources, drive more than one-third of its automobiles, and use 21 times more water per capita than Europeans do.

然后OG12 Q14 (sunspots)这道题，C和D里，如果把although去掉，句子语法不正确。所以C/D里面although用法错误。

E的错误是很明显的，句子开头H tomatoes应该是一个主语，紧接着grown from seeds saved during the previous year是-ed作定语修饰H tomatoes，而然这句话还没有说完，又开始另起一句说although ……。后面的“-……-”应该是一个插入语，后面又是一句完整的话，因此划线部分也应该是一句完整的话。
在我看来，D选项在语法上没有任何错误，但是和正确选项B相比，可以发现B的语序以及对连词although的使用都使得逻辑更加清楚。

D选项是完整的句子，可后半句也是一个完整的句子，没有连接词，是run-on错误。E选项划线部分已经有两个主语 ...

这个解释很好。

可不可以请教一下，什么叫run on 句子？

可不可以请教一下，什么叫run on 句子？

A run-on is a sentence in which two or more independent clauses (i.e., complete sentences) are joined without appropriate punctuation or conjunction.

eg1.
A run-on sentence, without any punctuation or conjunction between "gas" and "we": （句子木有逗号）
My car is out of gas we cannot reach town before dark.

eg2.
A comma splice, which is considered a run-on sentence in English by some usage experts:
It is nearly half past five, we cannot reach town before dark.
改正：
Use separate sentences. However, this may disconnect related independent clauses and cause some of the meaning to be lost:
It is nearly half past five. We cannot reach town before dark.
Use a semicolon. This maintains the connection between the clauses while ensuring a pause between the two ideas:
It is nearly half past five; we cannot reach town before dark.
Use a coordinating conjunction with a comma.
It is nearly half past five, so we cannot reach town before dark.

可是中间有破折号，破折号不是可以连接俩个句子吗？难道是因为B项的句子结构更好吗？

不好意思我看错了，这里有俩个破折号，是作为插入语，所以前面应该是个从句~
