In the sea, once upon a time, O my Best Beloved, there was a Whale, and he ate fishes. He ate the starfish and the garfish, and

the crab and the dab, and the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate, and the mackereel and the pickereel, and the really truly twirly-whirly eel. All the fishes he could find in all the sea he ate with his mouth—so! Till at last there was only one small fish left in all the sea, and he was a small 'Stute Fish, and he swam a little behind the Whale’s right ear, so as to be out of harm’s way. Then the Whale stood up on his tail and said, "I’m hungry.” And the small 'Stute Fish said in a small 'stute voice, "Noble and generous Cetacean, have you ever tasted Man?” What is the 'Stute Fish’s motivation? to keep the whale full and happy to teach the whale a life lesson to escape being eaten by the whale to ask the whale for protection

Answer:

to escape being eaten by the whale  

Explanation:

Stute Fish was the last fish in the sea, because the whale devoured everyone else. He knew it would be his next meal and so he directed all of his actions to protect him. In this case, we can say that the fish decided to hide behind the whale's ear so as not to be seen by it and eventually eaten and when she said she was hungry, he suggested that she taste the taste of another animal, man, because so he would not be devoured.

In other words, we can say that the fish's actions were motivated by the desire to escape being eaten by the whale.

In three to five sentences, describe how conflict can be both constructive and destructive.
Flura [38]

svp [43]

The two parts of this excerpt from W. W. Jacobs's "The Monkey's Paw" show that show the White family doesn't believe in the talisman's power are:

"Sounds like the 'Arabian Nights,'" said Mrs. White, as she rose and began to set the supper.

The 'Arabian Nights' were stories made up by the narrator Scheherazade and told to the King over 1001 nights so that he would not kill her as he had done with so many other women in the past. In this way, it signifies that Mrs. White believes this story to be a made-up tale.

and

"Don't you think you might wish for four pairs of hands for me." Her husband drew the talisman from his pocket, and all three burst into laughter

Mr. White is jokingly asking to be given four pairs of hands, something that isn't sensible or realistic, because he does not believe in the power of the talisman to grant wishes. In the end the three burst in laughter as they do not take the talisman, or the story of it's power, seriously.
