The fish died, because, using context clues, the word mournfully is usually associated with death or someone/ something leaving, and since a fish couldn't swim away, we would have to believe that the fish has died.

The word that best matches the meaning of the expression "went to the big ocean" is died.

The goldfish died, which is why the father looks at the children mournfully. The "big ocean" is the father's way of saying fish heaven. He could have just said that the goldfish died, but this way, the children imagine the fish in a bigger, better place instead of just picturing a dead fish.

Answer:

" Meanwhile, the executioner had taken up his position on one side and raised the mace. Then, on a sign, the two assistants stepped aside. The prisoner wanted to get to his feet but, before he had time to do so, the club struck him on the left temple. There was a dull, muffled sound, the victim fell like a stricken bull, face downwards, then on the rebound turned over on his back. At this the executioner dropped his mace, pulled the knife out of his belt, cut open his throat with a single stroke and, immediately stepping on his belly, began as it were to knead the body with his feet. At each stamping of the foot, a jet of blood spurted from the condemned man's neck. "
