Today I reviewed something about how to repair sentence fragments. We can repair most sentence fragments by two ways, one of them is either pull the fragment into a nearby sentence, the other way is to rewrite the fragment as a complete sentence. We need to attach fragmented subordinate clauses or turn them into sentence.
e.g.
1）I don't think Kevin will come back this summer. Because he hurt his legs.
Correct : I don't think Kevin will come back this summer because he hurt his legs.
Or "Because Kevin hurt his legs, I do not think he will come back this summer."
2）I like apple juice. And banana ice-cream.
Correct : I like apple juice and banana ice-cream.
