Eliminating
FragmentsAcademic Center Exercises
We recommend you complete exercises 1, 2, and 3 in that order.
Exercise
1: This exercise requires you to identify
and complete several fragments. (10 sentences) An answer key is
included at the end of the exercise.
Exercise
2: This
exercise includes a paragraph about Vincent Van Gogh, and your task
will be more difficult. You'll need to recognize fragments when
they occur
within
the
context of a
paragraph. You'll revise the paragraph so that all the fragments
are eliminated, and the paragraph retains its logical flow. An answer
key is included at the end of the exercise.
Exercise

has been eliminated from a paragraph. You'll need to read the paragraph
carefully and provide the missing punctuation. An answer
key is included at the end of the exercise.
UHV students can schedule a face-to-face
tutoring session with a writing tutor or contact an
online
tutor to discuss any of these exercises or for additional assistance.
