OK dude he free points this was originally a question but now its not sooo yeah .

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.

explanation:

every person should make it a priority to serve at least two hours per week.

it's an extremely important civic responsibility that is invaluable to citizens most in need is the correct one
