Question

Which is the best correction of the clause fragment?

b. Change "Since" to "Because."

c. Change "they" to "Richard and Denise."

d. Delete the word "Since."

Answer 1

the answer is b. replace since with because

Answer 2

Hello, the correct answer would be either A or D. B cannot be correct because it still remains a fragment. The same case is with C. A might be correct in the following sense: Since, they had traveled often. "Since" meaning - after that. And D might also be correct because if you delete "since", you are left with - "They had traveled often", which is a completely correct and completed sentence.
