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, also known as an independent clause, includes a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought.
Let's examine the options:
1. Although the weather is sometimes warm in early March.
This is not a complete sentence because it starts with a subordinating conjunction "Although" and doesn't have a subject and a predicate expressing a complete thought.
2. Forecasters predicted six more weeks of winter this year.
This is a complete sentence because it has a subject "Forecasters" and a predicate "predicted" that express a complete thought.
3. The old saying, “In like a lion, out like a lamb.”
This is not a complete sentence as it is a sentence fragment. It lacks a subject and a predicate.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: Forecasters predicted six more weeks of winter this year.
