当although从句的主语为主句主语是，可以省略。

yiyi20

是不是同时也省略了谓语?

未省略谓语。
补全该句应为：
Although United States citizens account for only 5 percent of the world's population, United States citizens consume 28 percent of its nonrenewable resources, ........
该句考察的是although+分词结构的用法。

语法实在太差,不好意思,能稍微说一下although+分词结构的用法吗.可以这样理解吗:
although+分词=although+主语+分词的动词形态
