The complete sentence is "Forecasters predicted six more weeks of winter this year."
To determine which of these is a complete sentence, we need to understand what constitutes a complete sentence. A complete sentence is a group of words that expresses a complete thought and contains both a subject and a predicate.
Let's analyze the options:
1. "Although the weather is sometimes warm in early March." - This is a dependent clause, not a complete sentence. It begins with the subordinating conjunction "although" and does not have a complete thought.
2. "Forecasters predicted six more weeks of winter this year." - This is a complete sentence. It has a subject ("forecasters") and a predicate ("predicted six more weeks of winter this year") and expresses a complete thought.
3. "The old saying, 'In like a lion, out like a lamb.'" - This is not a complete sentence. It is a noun phrase because it does not have a subject and a verb. It is a quote, which by itself is not a complete sentence.
Therefore, the correct answer is: "Forecasters predicted six more weeks of winter this year."
