Ginny was pushing her owner to adopt more than 20 cats.
Answer:
Form
Explanation:
It isn't theme. Theme is the message of a passage or text. (Not to be confused with main idea, which is the the overall point the passage or text was written. ) It isn't figurative language, because that is a whole <em>type </em>of writing structure. (For example, instead of saying, "She felt sick and dizzy," you could use figurative language and say, "Her legs felt like cooked spaghetti noodles and her stomach started doing somersaults." Heck, it's a little crazy, but it makes the writing better. Lastly, it isn't plot, since plot is pretty much what <em>happens</em> in the story. I would call it conflict, but it isn't always problems. Maybe a girl finds her long-lost father. That would be part of the plot but not conflict. (Well, I guess it <em>could</em> cause some conflict if you think about it.
So, long story short, the answer is form.
Some examples of simple, compound, complex and compound-complex sentences using the examples given are the following:
People get so excited about football. I don't understand it. It is not nearly as interesting as baseball. Here we have three simple sentences.
People get so excited about football and I don't understand why; it is not nearly as interesting as baseball. Compound sentence formed by three independent clauses. The firs two are linked by the coordinator "and", and the third one is separated by a semicolon.
I don't understand why people get so excited about football. It is not nearly as interesting as baseball. Complex sentence formed by a dependent clause embedded in an independent clause, introduced by the adverb of reason "why". Afterwards, We have an independent clause.
I don't understand why people get so excited about football, for it is not nearly as interesting as baseball. Compound-complex sentence formed by two clauses, one independent containing a dependent introduced by the adverb of reason "why", and the other one linked by the coordinator "for".
