wait..err...
Yeah, it's B...I believe.
It is either C or A B is not correctly punctuated
qq Okay, i'll try again.
C sounds correctly, but I'm still a little iffy, because they switched the sentence a little.
Lets break this down a little First, what type of subject does this sentence have? (compound, complete, simple)
which sentence? C?
The sentence all together, the fragmented sentence. It still has a subject
Oh, fragments. ^///^ my bad... I thought we were doing correct sentences.
well this phrase we are looking at has a few main problems answer these questions and you should realize the correct answer Is it punctuated correctly? Is the subject and verb correctly structured into the sentence? How would you correct the Punctuation and Structure?
yes. I guess. This sentence is fine on its own...
What was the woman doing as she rushed to the bus stop?
She picked up several packages.
She was picking up several packages They are presenting this as two sentences, when it should be one conjoined sentence You would fix this by ______ ?
I don't know. The sentence seems fine on its own. It doesn't seem like it needs fixing to me. :3
Well C would be the correct way to fix this, it takes the compound subject and conjoins it with the correct punctuation (a comma)
so, it isn't C, though. We are looking for a fragment.
No we are looking for which best corrects the sentence which is already in fragments.
Okay....so then, it would be C
