Brief Explanations

A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence, lacking a subject, a predicate, or both. Let's analyze each option:

  • Sentence 1: "We had a great time at the mall last Friday night." It has a subject ("We") and a predicate ("had a great time..."), so it's a complete sentence.
  • Sentence 2: "Several new movies had just opened." Subject ("Several new movies") and predicate ("had just opened"), complete.
  • Sentence 4: "Then, chose the action film and went inside." Wait, this is a fragment? Wait, no—wait, let's re - check. Wait, actually, Sentence 4: Wait, no, let's check Sentence 4 again. Wait, the original passage: Sentence 4: "Then, chose the action film and went inside." Wait, no subject? Wait, no, maybe I misread. Wait, no, let's check the options again. Wait, the options are Sentence 1, 2, 4, 5. Wait, Sentence 4: "Then, chose the action film and went inside." There's no subject here. A complete sentence needs a subject and a predicate. Here, "chose" and "went" are verbs, but no subject. Wait, but wait, maybe the subject is implied from the previous sentence? No, in standard grammar, a sentence fragment is a group of words that doesn't express a complete thought. Wait, but let's check the other options. Sentence 5: "Many of our friends were already sitting there, we enjoyed the new movie together." Wait, that's a run - on sentence, not a fragment. Wait, no, the question is about a fragment. Wait, Sentence 4: "Then, chose the action film and went inside." This is a fragment because it lacks a subject. The subject (like "we") is missing. So Sentence 4 is a fragment.
