Question

Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points) Which of the following is an example of a sentence fragment? He wrote a book. It is short. Many people like it. Mostly the ending.

Answer 1

The correct answer is Mostly the ending.

A sentence fragment is a group of words that looks like a sentence.  But it is not a complete sentence because there is usually a subject or a verb missing. A fragment can nor stand on its own. An independent clause ( containing a subject and and a verb) is needed for a fragment to become a sentence.

In Mostly the ending there is no verb, so this is not a sentence. It can not stand on its own because it has no meaning separately. All of the other examples are sentences because they have both a subject  (He, Many people, It) and verbs (wrote, is, like).
