Answer:

Run-on

Explanation:

Run-on sentences are defined as the sentences when two independent sentences are inappropriately joined without proper punctuation or coordinating conjunction.

The given sentence would be characterized as a run-on as two independent clauses conveying complete thought are linked inadequately which creates a misleading effect. In order to rectify this error, the two sentences can be separated using a full stop for clarifying the meaning.

'The duck hunter set out his decoys in the shallow bay. Then he waited for the  first real bird to fly.'

PIT_PIT [208]

The question above is incomplete, the options attached to the question are listed below:


A. Harry Potter lies outside his aunt and uncle's house, unaware that his life has changed forever (Rowling 21).

B. While Potter lies outside his aunt and uncle's house, he "[sleeps] on, not knowing he [is] special" and praised all over the country (Rowling 21).

C. A wind sweeps gently over the trimmed hedges of Privet Drive, which lies quiet and neat under the dark sky, not a place where one would expect anything out of the ordinary to occur (Rowling 21).

D. The Harry Potter books are so entertaining because they paint a picture of a world in which we all want to live.
