Question

Exercise 1 Write frag. next to each sentence fragment. Write s next to each complete sentence.

Answer 1

The group of words "She created many paintings that were based on the American Southwest" is not a fragment, but a complete sentence, as explained below.

Fragment vs. complete sentence

We can define a fragment as an incomplete sentence. A fragment is basically a group of words that is missing a key element, such as a verb or a subject. A complete sentence, on the other hand, is not missing any elements. It has a subject, a verb, and a complement or object.

Let's take a look at the group of words provided in the question, "She created many paintings that were based on the American Southwest." It consists of two clauses that have their own subjects, verbs and complements:

• Subject - She

• Verb - created

• Complement/object - many paintings

• Subject - that

• Verb - were based

• Complement/object - on the American Southwest

Therefore, we can conclude that we have a complete sentence. We can write the letter S next to it.
