Explanation:
Let’s go one by one. A sentence must have a subject (who or what the sentence is about) and a verb (what the subject is doing). It also needs to make complete sense.
1. “Lorna wants a new bicycle.” → Subject = Lorna, Verb = wants → Complete idea → S
✔
2. “The flowers in the garden.” → No verb! Just telling us where flowers are, but not what they’re doing → F
✘
3. “The cat jumped on the bed.” → Subject = cat, Verb = jumped → Makes sense → S
✔
4. “More sugar in the recipe.” → No verb. Just saying “more sugar” — what about it? → F
✘
5. “There are three green cushions on the couch.” → Subject = there, Verb = are → Tells us something exists → S
✔
6. “The waterfall at the top of the creek.” → No verb. Just describing a place → F
✘
7. “James ate all the soda crackers.” → Subject = James, Verb = ate → Complete action → S
✔
8. “Run down the street.” → This is a command, but it’s missing a subject (like “you”). In school, we usually say this is a fragment unless it’s clearly an instruction with implied “you”. So → F
✘
So the answers are: S, F, S, F, S, F, S, F.
