Sentence Fragment Exercise

Task 1
The following text contains five sentence fragments. Identify and correct
them.

Since voices are made out of breaths. Singers cannot sing 1

well if their lungs are empty. They are trained on how to use their
diaphragm, which is the primary organ used for holding breaths,
and trained on how to breathe naturally. This is how it works. First,
encircle your waist with your hands and press the air out of your 5
lungs. Next, without lifting the shoulders, take a deep breath. You
will notice that your hands are being pushed out. Then, take
another deep breath and hold as long as you can. Without taking
another breath. Finally, count from one to twelve on one exhaling
breath. 10
Proper breathing boosts the voice, particularly hoarse or
husky ones. Hoarse or husky voices are the result of tight jaw,
throat or tongue muscles. Deep yawns help to relax the jaw and
throat muscles. For a mouth and throat workout. Try saying, with
the muscles of the mouth and throat relaxed, me, may, mah, mo, 15
moo; le lay, lah, lo, loo; e, ay, ah, o, oo.
Resonance, which results from the resounding of the voice in
the cavities of the head, is another equally important quality of the
voice. Even with proper breathing and speaking with relaxed
muscles. One’s voice may lack resonance. Two vital resonators are 20
the nasal cavity and the back of the mouth. Getting head resonance
is pertinent. The nasal cavity is the resonating space. Which many
fail to utilise. Practise with your head dropped to the chest and say:
bingle, mingle, ringle, single. The back of the mouth that must be
kept large and free is the other important resonator. Open your 25
mouth wide enough for the tones to come out and make sure that
your voice is heard by the person furthest from you.
