Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer is complex sentence.

A complex sentence means that the sentence contains one independent clause (one that can stand on its own), and at least one dependent clause (which is incomplete and cannot stand on its own). 

As you can see in the example above, this sentence has one independent clause (I came across my favorite pair of childhood shoes: purple and black jellies with gold buckles.) and one dependent clause (While I was cleaning out my closet the other day...).

Which of the following is the best definition for stream of consciousness?

Answers

Stream-of-consciousness is a very stylistic form of free indirect discourse. It is not spontaneous, or unintentional, or anything of the sort. In fact, if anything, it's just the opposite. It's highly stylized, but also purposeful and calculating. It sees the world wholly through the character's mind instead of through their senses, save for how the mind and the senses interact. 

It relates to a lot of things - free association, synesthesia, free indirect discourse, without actually being any of them. 

There's only a handful of writers that can actually do stream-of-consciousness writing with any success - Joyce and Faulkner come to mind immediately. In short, there's nothing wrong with trying it, but there's also nothing wrong with not having done that, but having done, say, free association instead.
