12. Which is a fused sentence?Lara will ask the group questions that she has prepared in advance.
Kyle will listen to group members and take notes on what they say.
Ted has not finished reading the assignment because he has been sick.
Josie will lead the discussion it is about a topic she knows well.

Answers

Answer:

D. Josie will lead the discussion it is about a topic she knows well.

Explanation:

A fused sentence also exemplifies a run-on sentence that lacks a proper conjunction or punctuation mark(comma or semicolon) where the two independent clauses run together. These sentences are generally treated as errors that can be rectified by adding an appropriate punctuation mark or a subordinate or coordinate conjunction.

Thus, the sentence that exemplifies this claim would be the last option "Josie will lead the discussion it is about a topic she knows well" which would read as following after fixing this error:

"Josie will lead the discussion as it is about a topic that she knows well".
I believe it is D
Josie will lead the discussion it is about a topic she knows well.

Beowulf's last words to Wiglaf are of his own people - he says that he is glad that he was there for his people when they needed him, but that it is his time to die now. Having this in mind, the best summary of Beowulf's last words would be B. We are members of a great, proud, and dying group of people. I, too, must die. - It is human nature to be born, and then to die, and it is no exception for Beowulf either.
