Yoni's motivation in talking to Sergei is to get good material for the documentary he is making. This compares to the goldfish motivation because the goldfish is motivated to fill someone's life with good things.
The theme revealed through the way Sergei acts is the theme that happiness is never eternal and there will always be times when it won't be there.
Although you did not present the text to which this question refers, we can see from the context of the question that you are referring to "What of this Goldfish, Would You Wish?"
By reading this short story, we can say that:
- The story shows how a poor boy named Yoni has the brilliant idea of filming a documentary to sell to a large television network.
- The documentary consists of filming people who will answer the question "What would you want if you had a magical fish that could grant wishes?"
- While interviewing people, Yoni ends up arriving at Sergei's house, which does have a magical wish-granting goldfish.
- Sergei is a foreigner and is in a moment where he considers himself happy.
- This is because, in addition to having a magical fish, he is living the way he wanted.
- However, he doesn't want to reveal that he has a magic fish to Yoni and Yoni's insistence on interviewing him causes his happiness to slowly dissipate.

Explanation:
Language is a system of signs represrnting ideas to convey a message. Those symbols, which are words can be arbitrary, ambiguous, abstract representations of other phenomena. Words are not intrinsically connected to what they represent. Meanings of words can shift over time. The arbitrary character allows us to invent new words.
Language is ruled guided, simply put, verbal communication is guided by unspoken but broadly understood rules.
So I would say that option A, C and D are correct.
Meanwhile, I think that option B is incorrect since a mean of communication is understood as the tool and technology employed in order to convey a message, exchange information, ideas.
i think da answer will be c srry if its not right

Answer:
When Orwell relates his experience with the elephant in “Shooting an Elephant” it gives some insight into his own psyche as well as the structure of imperialism. In this moment, he criticizes imperialism, showing that the leaders are controlled by the masses just as much as, if not more so than, the other way around.
He describes himself as being despised by the Burmese people. He is a colonial policeman, and in this role, he is associated with imperial British rule, propped up by the threat of force. (Orwell himself served in the Indian imperial police for a time, so the narrator's voice is likely his own.) When the elephant tears through the bazaar, killing a coolie, the Burmese crowd demands that he shoot and kill it. He does not want to do this, because by the time he arrives on the scene, the elephant has calmed, and no longer poses a threat to anybody. Orwell reflects that, in order to appease the angry crowd, he has to fill the role that they expect of him, which is that of a hated "tyrant." This is the paradoxical nature of empire- he must compromise his morality, become what the Burmese people already think he is, or risk their laughter and scorn. For someone that has already determined that he hates British imperialism, the incident is profoundly unsettling, but in a "roundabout way enlightening." It underscores the duality of empire, a world in which a man like Orwell can, as he says in the account, hold remarkably contradictory feelings:
The incident illustrates that, whatever objections they may have to British rule, imperial officials have to be hated to be respected.
