Though the two stories “Fish cheeks” and “Two Kinds” have many similarities, their differences play a key role in defining each individual story. Both stories have the same basic setup; they are each told from the point of view of a young Asian-American girl, who are both the daughters of generation Chinese immigrants. This proves to be a source of conflict in the two stories, due to the fact that the cultural and generational differences between both mother-daughter duos. In the story “Fish Cheeks,” the narrator is struggling with her heritage and cultural traditions as she tries to fit into American society and be accepted by her peers, specifically, the minister’s son. She is embarrassed by her mother’s ethnic food choices for dinner and…

A fish has long been seen as the perfect “starter pet”. Parents who are skeptical of their children’s ability to care for a larger animal will often present their offspring with a goldfish before introducing a dog or a cat to the household. While it is true that goldfish do not require quite as much attention as their four-legged counterparts, marine pets are not as easy to raise as everybody seems to think. If a fish is to thrive and survive in your care, you must make sure the water in your aquarium is the right temperature, is free of chlorine, and has a low pH level. Failure to adequately prepare the water for your fish will ultimately lead to their death, likely after several weeks of illness and lethargy. Experienced aquarists may be…
3.

The several stories that we have been reading in this class are al quite similar in many ways, ranging from characters, motivations, morals, and themes. “What of this Goldfish, Would You Wish?” by Etgar Keret, is a story of a young boy who gets the idea to create a documentary about the wishes people if they were given the chance by a magical goldfish. The boy, Yonatan or Yoni, believes he can become rich and famous by filming this documentary. He knocks on the door of a Russian man by the name of Sergei, who he asks the question of what he would like to wish for. Sergei does not understand and ends up hitting Yoni on the head with a burner due to his panic attack. The goldfish convinces Sergei to use his last wish on saving the boy with the ring in his ear because he knows that the Russian will regret it later. Sergei was a kind man who cared for others’ well-being. He…

Fish goes on to explain how Postmodernism views, and how to view the recent attacks through the lenses of relativism. Fish describes how the postmodernist view is that there “can be no independent standard for determining which of many rival interpretations of an event is the true one.” (Fish, 2001) He goes on to explain that we would not be able to justify our response to the attack to everyone universally, because everyone has his or her own notions of justice and truth.…

If you were to look at the oceans 530 million years ago, you would be amazed by the wild array of creatures thriving in the waters. The seas abound with robust rainbows of corals and starfish. Huge schools of jellyfish pump through the waters while the sea floor is alive with a variety of mollusks and crustaceans. Life would likely have appeared to be as diverse as it could get. Then in the waters off the coast of China appeared a new, tiny little creature: Myllokunmingia fengjiaoa.[1]…

One of the hardest things to deal with is cleaning the fish tank. When cleaning the tank it is important to follow all the steps so that all the fish may live long healthy lives. First of all have a clean bowl ready to put the fish in while cleaning the tank. Make sure that the water that is put into the bowl is of the right temperature and livable to the fish. At the same time, have all the supplies ready to use and make sure there is plenty of time (1-2 hours) to clean tank. I remember one time that I didn’t have everything ready and I was running around the house looking for supplies and then I was late to church because it took me so much more time. Examples of supplies that will be needed would be cleaning solution, cloth, scrub, fish net, pump, bucket, and towels. After bowl is ready and all supplies are ready the fish can be caught using the net and safely put into the bowl while you clean the tank.…
The story that I have chosen relates to having a fish for a pet. The importance of having any pet is knowing how to take care of them and feeding them when they need to be fed. It may be difficult to look after an animal all day but they should be treated as any living thing. It takes heart to care for someone, its goes the same for taking caring care of a pet and making sure they are okay. Owning a pet should be a privilege because these animals depend on you and that is like a gift to own. Every pet deserves a loving and dependable care-taker even as simple as having a pet gold fish.…
