My niece could not be persuaded that giving is as much joy as reviving. Is there an error

English

The error is the word reviving. The correct word is receiving.

<em>To revive</em> means to restore to life or consciousness, give new strength and energy to.

<em>To receive</em> means to be given or presented with something.

U.S. researchers found that the old adage 'it's better to give than to receive' is true. Spending money on other people in whatever form (gifts, charities or even in form of non-materialistic things such as time, attention or care), makes a person happier than receiving all of these above.

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.

How does the motif of wishing apply to each of the story’s major characters: Yoni, Sergei, and the goldfish? What is similar and
Ilya [14]

Answer:

<h3>The motif of wishing for Yoni was through the sale of his video footage.</h3><h3>The motif of wishing for Yoni was through the magic goldfish.</h3><h3>The motif of wishing for the goldfish was through the final wish.</h3>

Explanation:

In the story "What, Of this Goldfish, Would you wish?", the motif of wishing for Yoni was through his <u>innocent yet ambitious dream of selling his video footage to companies. </u>"With a little decent footage, he was sure he’d be able to sell it to Channel 8 or  Discovery in a flash,".

For Sergei, the motif of wishing was <u>through the magic goldfish. </u>Through this line ‘‘I’m a magic fish. I’m fluent in everything:”, we can see that the goldfish had the magic to grant Sergei with wishes.

The motif of wishing for the goldfish was that <u>once he granted three wishes to Sergei, he would have his freedom. </u>The lines "After the last wish, Sergei won’t have a choice. He’ll have to let the goldfish go. His magic goldfish. His friend."

There is no similarity in the wishes of these three characters. Yoni wanted success and wealth, Sergei wanted companionship and someone to talk to and the goldfish wanted freedom.
