Which sentence contains a fragment? a. he seldom spoke to anyone. he lived alone and far from town. b. he seldom spoke to anyone, and he lived alone and far from town. c. living alone and far from town, he seldom spoke to anyone. d. he seldom spoke to anyone. living alone and far from town.

The answer is ⇨ D.

Sentence fragments are groups of words that look like sentences, but aren’t. To be a sentence, groups of words need to have at least one independent clause. An independent clause is any group of verbs that contain both a subject and a verb and can stand on it’s own.
Sentence fragments never have independent clauses, but instead are dependent clauses or phrases. A sentence fragment is a little like having only half of the pieces to a puzzle.

In D, “Living alone and far from town.” is incomplete and is a fragment.
