Question

sentence, fragment, or run - on?
earlier in the day, she took a taxi to the airport. knowing that her time was
limited.
fragment
sentence
run - on

Explanation:

A sentence fragment is a group of words that does not express a complete thought. The second part "Knowing that her time was limited" is a participle phrase (a type of fragment) as it lacks a main verb to form a complete sentence. The first part "Earlier in the day, she took a taxi to the airport" is a complete sentence. But when considering the two parts together in the context of the question (as the options are for the whole presented text), the presence of the fragment makes the overall text have a fragment.

Answer:

Fragment
