Solution

To determine which of the sentence fragments is incorrect, we need to analyze each one individually.

  1. "He got into bad company" - This sentence fragment is grammatically correct. It expresses that someone has associated themselves with a negative group of people.

  2. "One of my servant tells me" - This sentence fragment is incorrect. The word "servant" should be pluralized to "servants" to match the verb "tell." The correct sentence would be "One of my servants tells me."

  3. "Some of my servants tell me" - This sentence fragment is grammatically correct. It indicates that a portion of the speaker's servants inform them about something.

  4. "The front of the house" - This sentence fragment is grammatically correct. It refers to the area or side of the house that faces the street or entrance.

Therefore, the incorrect sentence fragment is "One of my servant tells me."
