Explanation:
A fragment is described as a detached group of words, phrases, or clauses proposing an incomplete meaning. These are often called broken or shattered parts(lacking an accomplished meaning due to the absence of either the verb or subject) that might have been separated from a sentence.
As per the question, option A i.e. 'To prepare for the 10K race' exemplify a fragment as it lacks a subject and main verb and proposes an incomplete meaning. Since it offers an incomplete thought and does not possess the ability to stand on its own, it demonstrates a fragment. It could propose an accomplished thought only when either it is added to a sentence or rectified by placing an appropriate subject and verb in it. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
Utterson knew the house Mr. Hyde disappeared into belonged to his client Dr. Jekyll.
Explanation:
Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" revolves around the story of how a good doctor was dominated over by his alter-ego. In the end, the more dominant and dangerous personality took over the good doctor which led the latter to commit sui cide while he still has control over his sanity.
In the first chapter of the story, Enfield was telling Mr. Utterson about the horrendous incident he had encountered one late night. And in revealing how the 'monster' had compensated for his act of killing the young girl by giving a cheque, Utterson did not ask for the name on the cheque. This was because he had already known the owner of the house where Mr. Hyde, the child killer, had gone in to get the money and cheque.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Sitting stiffly in front of the steering wheel, I do as my father told me and gently start the car. Carefully I drove it to the middle of the street double-checking, the rearview mirror just in case that a car or a bike suddenly appears. I successfully did the firsts meters without any problems. I made it to the end of my desolated street. Everything was fine, no cars, no kids, no dogs, nothing to worry about.
Suddenly, Tim, that annoying kid with his red ball, sees me from his porch. I saw his face while I was anxiously approaching his ostentatious house, and I knew that he was planning something. Carefully lying my feet on the brakes expecting for him to run in front of the car and my nervous self, I pass in front of his house. I was driving so slowly that I made his target extremely easy. His shiny red ball hit me square in the face making me lose control of the car and hit the brakes just in time before crashing the car against the big oak tree of Mr. Ferguson.
