Although appearing less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins, heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved during the previous year – they are often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises-heirlooms are more flavorful and thus in increasing demand.

A Although appearing less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins, heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved during the previous year
B Although heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved during the previous year, appear less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins
C Although they appear less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins, heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved during the previous year
D Grown from seeds saved during the previous year, heirloom tomatoes appear less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins
E Heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved during the previous year, although they appear less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins

答案选B 可以理解哪位大牛能告诉我A,C 差别在哪里错误在哪里？。

简单分析下：
A. heirloom tomatoes的位置在...cousins后面，看上去像是修饰cousins，是个同位语。意思错误。
B. heirloom tomatoes错误同A, 第一个they指代不清，后一个They也不清楚，因为前面分句的主语也是个they.不知道指代的什么。

LZ按照逻辑理解一下，破折号后面的they应该是指代主语的吧，而原句是说这种H番茄没有他们的近亲好看但是味道尚佳
所以重点不是说H番茄的都应该不看

我觉得是这样的，

they are often green and striped，这部分可以忽略，它的作用是描述H

tomato不好看的补语。

A项，前面appearing 部分是修饰H tomato，后面grown部分也是修饰H

tomato。这样 although的半句话，主语是H tomato，没有谓语。

B项正确，although H tomato，grown部分做修饰主语，apper部分做谓语

表达不好看含义，they are 部分做H tomato不好看的补充说明。

C项一样，一是they和 H tomato太远，二是与A一样的问题，没有谓语

破折号起补充说明作用，可以略去。
A Although appearing less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins, heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved during the previous year 没有谓语
C heirloom tomatoes后仍然缺一个谓语
不知道解释的对不对等待更多讨论

OG13体现出一个新的规则，although 和though相比，最大的区别是although必须跟一句完整的句子而though不用，所以A错；选项C的逻辑关系极其混乱，heirloom tomatoes到底是主语还是cousins的同位语非常不清楚，而且在GMAT中能不出现人称代词尽量不要出现，C选项与其它选项相比无缘无故出现they就已经是错误答案的标志了。D选项省略了让步标志词although错误，E选项出现了run-on错误。

AC的错误在于，相比于B，AC两个选项破折号前都不是完整的句子，这不符合破折号的正确用法。

以A为例，Although appearing less appetizing than most of their round and red supermarket cousins, heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved during the previous year- they are....

这里，although后面跟的是状语从句，heirloom tomatoes是主语，grown...是后置定语修饰heirloom tomatoes。所以破折号前的句子主干只有主语，并不是主谓（宾）的完整结构，故不符合破折号用法。
