Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Loved pizza more than life itself.

    • A.

      Complete sentence

    • B.

      Incomplete sentence

    Correct Answer
    B. Incomplete sentence
    Explanation
    The given sentence "Loved pizza more than life itself" is not a complete sentence because it lacks a subject. It only contains a verb and an object. A complete sentence should have a subject (the one doing the action) and a predicate (the action or state of being). In this case, the subject is missing, so the sentence is incomplete.
