Because she exercises regularly, she is in good condition. It has been raining all day. Be quiet. (The subject "You" is understood.) He's quiet, and he's very polite. (compound sentence)

7. 2. A fragment is only a piece of a complete thought that has been punctuated like a sentence.  Fragments can be phrases or dependent clauses or any incomplete word group. Study the following examples: Ann walked all alone. To the store. (prepositional phrase fragment) Walking to the store. She saw a car accident. (present participial phrase) Because she exercises regularly. She is in good condition. (dependent/adverb clause fragment)

8. These are the three most common ways to correct a fragment: a) To correct a fragment, connect the fragment to a compete sentence. "Ann walked all alone. To the store.“ can be corrected like this: "Ann walked all alone to the store." "Walking to the store. She saw a car accident." can be corrected like this: "Walking to the store, she saw a car accident."

9. b) To correct a fragment, remove words to make the fragment a complete sentence. "Because she exercises regularly. She is in excellent condition." can be corrected like this: "She exercises regularly. She is in excellent condition."

10. c) To correct a fragment, add words to make the fragment a complete sentence. "Because she exercises regularly. She is in excellent condition." can be corrected like this: "She feels great because she exercises regularly. She is in excellent condition."
