Task Overview:


The worksheet is divided into two main sections:

Section 1: Sentence or a Fragment



#### Instructions:
- Read each group of words.
- Write "sentence" if the group forms a complete sentence.
- Write "fragment" if it does not form a complete sentence.

#### Analysis and Solutions:

1. I remember my first day of swimming school.
- Analysis: This group of words has a subject ("I"), a verb ("remember"), and a complete thought. It expresses a complete idea.
- Answer: Sentence

2. Looked surprised.
- Analysis: This group lacks a subject. While "looked" is a verb and "surprised" is an adjective, there is no noun to indicate who looked surprised.
- Answer: Fragment

3. Was broken.
- Analysis: Similar to the previous example, this group lacks a subject. The verb "was" and the past participle "broken" do not form a complete sentence without a noun.
- Answer: Fragment

4. We know each other since 5 years.
- Analysis: This group has a subject ("We"), a verb ("know"), and additional information ("since 5 years"). However, the phrase "since 5 years" is grammatically incorrect; it should be "for 5 years." Despite this error, the structure still conveys a complete thought.
- Answer: Sentence

5. Have sandwiches.
- Analysis: This group lacks a subject. The verb "have" and the object "sandwiches" do not form a complete sentence without specifying who is having the sandwiches.
- Answer: Fragment

Section 2: Statement or Question



#### Instructions:
- Decide if the sentence is a statement or a question.
- Rewrite the sentence using correct punctuation and capitalization.

#### Analysis and Solutions:

1. do you remember your best friend
- Analysis: This is a question because it begins with an interrogative word ("do") and ends with a question mark (though it is missing here).
- Rewrite: Do you remember your best friend?
- Answer: Question

2. Maybe you were shocked
- Analysis: This is a statement because it expresses a fact or opinion without asking a question.
- Rewrite: Maybe you were shocked.
- Answer: Statement

3. maybe you were happy
- Analysis: This is a statement, similar to the previous example. It expresses a possibility without asking a question.
- Rewrite: Maybe you were happy.
- Answer: Statement

4. Do you know the way to cyber city?
- Analysis: This is a question because it begins with an interrogative word ("Do") and ends with a question mark.
- Rewrite: Do you know the way to Cyber City? (Note: "Cyber City" should be capitalized as it appears to be a proper noun.)
- Answer: Question

5. did you make dessert?
- Analysis: This is a question because it begins with an interrogative word ("did") and ends with a question mark.
- Rewrite: Did you make dessert?
- Answer: Question
