The prompt is about Embedded Quotations.

The narrator feels as if he is in the bird’s position. “squeezed a thumb into its throat until I could not breathe” shows how the boy is deeply affected by the death of the bird and feels for it.

The above quotation is NOT Embedded.

<h3>What is an embedded Quotation?</h3>

Quotes from your sources should flow naturally into your own sentences. This is referred to as embedding or integrating quotations.

In other words, an embedded quotation is a quotation taken from a work such as a play, poem, or novel and embedded within another work such as a paper.

Embedded quotations must be surrounded by quotation marks and be brief and to the point.

<h3>What is the corrected Sentence?</h3>

The phrase “squeezed a thumb into its throat until I could not breathe” shows how the boy is deeply affected by the death of the bird and feels for it. The narrator feels as if he is in the bird’s position.

Notice that the sentence flows more naturally and is more coherent. Hence, the quotation is now embedded.

DedPeter [7]

I believe that the phrase “blessing of another World War”, in this excerpt from Kurt Vonnegut's "Report on the Barnhouse Effect", is an example of sarcasm. Sarcasm is a sharp remark similar to irony. It also uses expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, in order to ridicule something or someone. In this case, the word “blessing” is an example of sarcasm, as World War can’t be the blessing.
