Question

Identify the passage that contains a sentence fragment.

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The fragment part of A is the first part. While this may look like a sentence and may also transmit the same ideas as would a properly formed sentence, this is a fragment.

A sentences fragment is not a sentence because it is not an independent clause containing a subject and a predicate. In order to be a sentence, the fragment would need to be changed to something like the following:

He was a child who grew up in the New Jersey suburbs in the fifties.
