Explanation:

Hindley is one of the most despicable characters of the novel. He has very few redeeming qualities, and is extremely unlikable. He has treated Heathcliff badly throughout his whole life. However, his turning point comes when his wife dies, which he takes as a license to become even more tyrannical.

Lockwood claims that he has come to Thrushcross Grange in order to find peace and solitude. However, this is far from what he will actually encounter.

After Hindley comes home drunk, he drops Hareton from the top of the stairs. Luckily, Heathcliff is able to catch him, saving his life.

Cathy and Hareton offer an alternative to the brutal and wild relationship between Catherine and Heathcliff. Although they love each other as well, their relationship is less turbulent and more peaceful.

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.
