What’s the story I can’t see it
Answer: Fragment (missing predicate)
Explanation:
A sentence fragment is a sentence that is missing either its subject or its main verb.
The answer to this one is D. This is because the sentence does not have a predicate. A sentence's predicate describes what is happening. A sentence is considered a fragment if it lacks a predicate. Consider the following example:
<em>My cousin Fred.</em>
We know Fred is the subject of this phrase, but we have no idea what he's up to. As a result, this isn't a complete sentence.
As "three fish and a turtle" has 2 subjects, the three fish and the turtle, but no predicate to show what they're doing, the sentence is a fragment missing a predicate.
Answer:
A counterclaim is the argument (or one of the arguments) opposing your thesis statement
Explanation:
If the underlined phrase is <em>having been warned by her mother, </em>then this is a nonessential perfect participial phrase.
Nonessential phrases are separated from the rest of the sentence by commas, and since this is a perfect participle, this is the only correct option.
