Composite cones are built up from a series of both explosive and non-explosive eruptions.

Composite volcanoes are highly variable in what they erupt. Most often, eruptions will release clouds of ash, pumice, and rock fragments. In some cases they fountain or extrude lava.
No. The term compostie volcano describes a kind of volcano, not a kind of volcanic eruption. The Soufrière Hills on Montserrat is indeed a composite volcano, however, whether it is erupting or not.

Sheild volcanoes generally erupt "quietly."
A cone shaped mountain may be kind of volcano called a stratovolcano, which is built from ash deposits and very viscous lava flows. Some stratovolcanoes have very well formed cones, including Mount Fuji in Japan, and Mount St Helens prior to its cataclysmic eruption in 1980.
There are 3 kinds of volcanoes which are found around the world. They are shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and composite volcanoes. Many of the most beautiful mountains in the world are composite volcanoes.
A composite volcano is a cone-shaped volcano made up of alternating layers of lava fragments and rock particles. Sources: vocabulary sheet my science teacher gave me.
