Which of the following sentences is a sentence fragment?
a. By the mid-nineteenth century, most of the people in Ireland depended on the potato for their livelihoods and their lives.
b. Leaving the country vulnerable to a disastrous crop failure.
c. In 1845, a fungus, accidentally transported from America, wiped out the Irish potato
crop.
Fragments always leave the reader wondering "yes, and what?"
Read those three out loud and let us know which one leaves you wondering.
I think B is the right answer
Yes, right! ✔️
Yes, C is correct.
Parallel in structure means that two or more equal elements in a sentence need to be presented in similar ways. Two nouns, for example, should be connected by a conjunction and serve in the same function in the sentence. Three prepositional phrases need to be in the same format (for the cleanliness of the water in the well).
A and B have "Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel" joined by a conjunction and serving the same function in each sentence. In A, they are in the direct object position in the sentence. In B, they serve as the subject. But in C, one is a direct object and the other is a subject. That's why C is correct. =)
I’ll be happy to check what you think the answers to these are. (PS. I’m not in Instagram.)
1. yes
2. not B
3. C, yes
4. B, yes
So the answers will be:-
1-While traveling in Canada, we saw a family of moose.
2-As a matter of fact, the standard of living for the typical South Korean make them one of the most prosperous of all people in the Pacific Rim.
3-The smoke that the firefighters encountered breaking down the door almost overwhelmed them.
4-In the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, European missionaries and merchants travelled to China, India and the Near East.
