Answer:

Your answer would be that the sentence contains a present participial phrase with a direct object.

Explanation:

The sentence above contains a present participial phrase with a direct object. As this is a present participle, it ends in -ing. What is more, the participle phrase includes objects and modifiers that complete the thought. In the sentence above, the present participle <em>wanting</em> takes the NP direct object <em>a cookie.</em> This participle phrase modifies the pronoun <em>he.</em>

My dear Rakesh,

You will be glad to learn that I have taken admission in central school, Janakpuri. Life in the school is interesting and enjoyable. The school complex is in a huge and splendid building.

The school timings are from 9 in the morning to 4 in the evening. We go there by school bus so I am always punctual.

The Principal is very strict about punctuality. There are eight periods daily. We remain busy in all the periods except recess. The teachers are helpful and nice. They take so much interest in teaching us that I do not miss any period. There is very strict discipline about uniform, behaviour and cleanliness. There is a very good atmosphere in the school.

I have made many new friends. Atul is my best friend. We help each other in studies. How are you getting on your studies? You must be working hard. I often miss my old school and friends. Remember me to Sahith, Anuj and Sameer with lots of love and remembrance. Please pay my regards to your parents.

Yours Sincerely,

Prakash
