Out on the sea, Captain Wilde and his crew were getting ready to brave through a severe storm. The waves bullied the ship making it toss and turn, and the rain pounded down on the crew. The wind whistled loudly as it moved across the sea and the ship. The only thing that the men could do was to hold on to the sides of the ship. The storm seemed to last for hours until at last, bits of sunshine broke through the dark gray clouds. The phrase "waves bullied the ship making it toss and turn" means that .

a. the waves feel impatient in the seab. the waves are clearing out old shipsc. the waves are deprived of any restd. the waves hit the ship with great force

sentences vary by structure as well as by function. there are compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences.

simple sentence

i like to read.

a simple sentence has one independent clause.

compound sentence

i like to read, and i also like to write.

a compound sentence includes more than one independent clause, connected by a coordinating conjunction (and, but, for, nor, or, so, or yet).

complex sentence

i prefer to read books that are bestsellers.

a complex sentence includes one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. (a dependent clause is one that cannot stand alone.) types of dependent clauses include relative clauses (i kicked the boy who pinched me), adverb clauses (i am going home now because i have a curfew), and noun clauses (i don't know what to do next).

compound-complex sentence

although i prefer to read current bestsellers, i do like to read old agatha christie mysteries, and i also like some 20th-century science fiction.

compound-complex sentences take a bunch of clauses (multiple independent clauses, and one or more dependent clauses) and toss them together like a salad. although these sentences take practice to write in a grammatically correct fashion, they can hold a tremendous amount of meaning, and are common in academic writing.
