The correct answer is D. Strolling in the park on a summer afternoon. A fragment is a phrase that is not able to stand on its own as a full sentence. A sentence needs a subject and a verb. However, in the phrase "Strolling in the park on a summer afternoon," we're missing the subject. We cannot answer the question: Who's strolling in the park?
