Respuesta :

D. Run-on sentence
The sentence is too long it can be broke down into two instead of going on and on

After reading the sentence, we can say its error is the following:

B. Sentence fragment.

What is a sentence fragment?

  • We can define fragment as a group of words that looks like a sentence, but that is missing something essential, such as the subject or the verb, in order to actually be a sentence.

Why is this sentence a fragment?

  • In this sentence we do have a subject, and we even have an appositive phrase, but we do not have a verb with a complement or an object.
  • We know the sentence is about horseshoes, four-leaf clovers, and rabbits' feet, but what about them? There is no verb referring to those subjects at all in the sentence, so there is no way to know.

With the information above in mind, we can say that letter B is the best option.
