Which word group is a complete sentence?
A- The exciting end of the baseball game.
B- She did not understand what happened.
C- Two energetic women walking in the park.
D- Started his homework late Saturday night.
My guess is B.
Yes. B is right.
Wouldn't you need to say
Two energetic women WERE walking in the park.
How is B not correct? I thought it sounded right? :/
Someone impersonated me a few minutes ago, Skye. Your answer is correct. B is right.
Ohhh, no problem! Try and get them banned! That's not cool if they are messing people up on purpose!
If it happens again, s/he will be banned.
To determine which word group is a complete sentence, we need to look for a group of words that has a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought.
Option B: "She did not understand what happened." This word group has a subject ("She") and a predicate ("did not understand what happened"). It also expresses a complete thought, indicating that the person didn't understand something. Therefore, option B is indeed a complete sentence.
Options A, C, and D do not contain a subject and a predicate or express a complete thought:
- Option A: "The exciting end of the baseball game" does not have a clear subject and predicate. It seems to be a noun phrase describing a specific part of a baseball game, but it is not a complete sentence.
- Option C: "Two energetic women walking in the park" is also a noun phrase, describing a scene or a group of people, but it does not contain a subject and predicate or express a complete thought.
- Option D: "Started his homework late Saturday night" is a verb phrase, indicating an action, but it is missing a subject, which makes it incomplete.
Therefore, your guess was correct, and option B is the word group that forms a complete sentence.
