Can video games be addictive? A recent study by Iowa State University concluded that 1 in 12 American children between the ages of 8 and 18 are addicted to video games. This figures show “gaming” as an addictive pathology, the same way that people are addicted to drugs or gambling. "Pathological gamers" spend more than 24 hours a week playing video games, which is twice the amount of time spent by most players. Researchers are concerned that the United Sates may be following in the footsteps of South Korea. South Korea has more than one hundred clinics to treat video-game addiction. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no more than two hours a day of "screen time." this includes television, movies and the internet.

Answer:
D. I hate gossip it destroys people's lives.
Explanation:
Fused Sentence- When two independent clauses are run together without a proper punctuation or conjunction between them. The sentences are run on with two main clauses clubbed together without punctuation. Each clause is complete on its own but are joined together with an error in between. The error can be removed by adding a comma or semicolon or other conjunctions depending upon the sentence structure.
Main clause + error + Main clause
Example:
I hate gossip it destroys people's lives
The sentence is an example of fused sentence as two two independent clauses run together without a proper punctuation.
I hate gossip + it destroys people's lives
Correct- I hate gossip, it destroys people's lives.
Think of an equation:
200 - 91 = 109
You can do anything to this equation, as long as you do the same thing to both sides. So, if you add 91 to both sides, you will get:
200 = 200
Since this holds true, Susan's strategy to add her answer to 91 makes sense.
