The option that is not a sentence is B) In the garden, as it does not express a complete thought nor contain both a subject and a verb. The other options are complete sentences. Understanding sentences helps improve language skills.

To determine which option is not a complete sentence, we need to understand what a complete sentence requires. A complete sentence must have at least a subject and a predicate, forming a complete thought. Let's analyze each option:
A) 'She plays.' - This is a complete sentence. 'She' is the subject, and 'plays' is the predicate. Together, they form a complete thought.
B) 'In the garden.' - This is not a complete sentence. It lacks both a subject and a verb, and it does not form a complete thought by itself. It is a prepositional phrase that might be a part of a sentence, but it cannot stand alone as a sentence.
C) 'Birds fly.' - This is a complete sentence. 'Birds' is the subject, and 'fly' is the predicate. Together, they express a complete thought.
D) 'I like cake.' - This is a complete sentence. 'I' is the subject, and 'like cake' is the predicate. Together, they form a complete thought.
Therefore, the option that is not a sentence is B) 'In the garden.'
