An ellipse is very eccentric when its foci are far apart.

The closer one focus is to the other, the less eccentric the ellipse is.

When when both foci are the same point, the eccentricity is zero, and the ellipse is a circle.

What is the shape of the path of the Earth's revolution around the sun?

It is a wavy ellipse. Wavy because of the Moon. The ellipse is close to a circle, but the Earth is just a little closer to the Sun in the Northern Hemisphere's Winter. All orbits are ellipses. The gravitational perturbations caused by the Moon causes VERY TINY ripples in the elliptical path; "wavy ellipse" may be overstating the case.
