It can be inferred form the excerpt that the conflict introduced is that: "Krogstad tries to blackmail Nora into getting Helmer to keep him at the bank by exposing her forgery." (Option C)

<h3 /><h3>What is a Conflict?</h3>

A conflict is the tension between two ideals. Usually, this is relative to the protagonist and other internal and or external elements of the play or plot.

Only Nora's father can assist Krogstad in regaining his much desired position at the bank as he has lost his employment there.

Knowing this, Krogstad contacts Nora and advises her to persuade her father to reinstall Krogstad in his position at the bank by speaking with him.

When Nora declines, Krogstad threatens to reveal material that would damage her image unless she puts in a nice word for him with her father. After a brief exchange of minor insults, Nora ultimately caves.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

<u>Full Question</u>

<u></u>

Read the excerpt from act 2 of A Doll's House. Nora: [quickly] He mustn't get the letter. Tear it up. I will find some means of getting money. Krogstad: Excuse me, Mrs. Helmer, but I think I told you just now— Nora: I am not speaking of what I owe you. Tell me what sum you are asking my husband for, and I will get the money. Krogstad: I am not asking your husband for a penny. Nora: What do you want, then? Krogstad: I will tell you. I want to rehabilitate myself, Mrs. Helmer; I want to get on; and in that your husband must help me. For the last year and a half I have not had a hand in anything dishonorable, amid all that time I have been struggling in most restricted circumstances. I was content to work my way up step by step. Now I am turned out, and I am not going to be satisfied with merely being taken into favor again. I want to get on, I tell you. I want to get into the Bank again, in a higher position. Your husband must make a place for me— Nora: That he will never do! Krogstad: He will; I know him; he dare not protest. And as soon as I am in there again with him, then you will see! Within a year I shall be the manager's right hand. It will be Nils Krogstad and not Torvald Helmer who manages the Bank. Nora: That's a thing you will never see! Krogstad: Do you mean that you will—? Nora: I have courage enough for it now. Krogstad: Oh, you can't frighten me. A fine, spoilt lady like you— Nora: You will see, you will see. Krogstad: Under the ice, perhaps? Down into the cold, coal-black water? And then, in the spring, to float up to the surface, all horrible and unrecognizable, with your hair fallen out— Nora: You can't frighten me. Krogstad: Nor you me. People don't do such things, Mrs. Helmer. Besides, what use would it be? I should have him completely in my power all the same. Nora: Afterwards? When I am no longer— Krogstad: Have you forgotten that it is I who have the keeping of your reputation? [NORA stands speechlessly looking at him.] Well, now, I have warned you. Do not do anything foolish. When Helmer has had my letter, I shall expect a message from him. And be sure you remember that it is your husband himself who has forced me into such ways as this again. I will never forgive him for that. Goodbye, Mrs. Helmer. [Exit through the hall.]

Maizie is going to give a real-time presentation next week. She has given recorded online speeches before, but this is her first
azamat

Answer and explanation:

I believe there are several differences she will notice, but two of them will strike her more acutely.

First, she will be looking at her audience. Speaking to a camera is far from being as intimidating as speaking to a group of real people who is right in front of you. Seeing their reactions - interest, drowsiness, boredom, laughter etc. - may interfere in Maizie's performance. She will process what she sees with neutrality, positivity, or negativity. She will feel certain emotions in connection to those interpretations which may, therefore, cause her to be more or less nervous.

Another difference she will notice is the fact that there is no editing to what she is saying. When recording something, editing is always a possibility, unless, of course, we are talking of a live stream. But in general, if you're making mistakes, you can cut and start over, or simply let it roll and then edit those mistakes out. In a real-time presentation, mistakes will be made and seen/heard by the audience immediately. It takes composure, poise, and the ability to laugh at oneself to keep the presentation going.

Which words and phrases in the passage help create a tone of foreboding? Check all that apply.
borishaifa [10]

The phrases creating a tone of foreboding are:

  • "strange blight;"
  • "evil spell;"
  • "mysterious maladies;"
  • "shadow of death."

<em>Foreboding</em> means predicting or announcing that something bad is about to happen. Taking the answers one by one, you can see how they relate to the same ominous idea:

  • a "strange blight" and "evil maladies" refer to a destructive condition which no-body can explain;
  • an "evil spell" means that it is interpreted as a magical curse;
  • the "shadow of death" is a metaphor meaning that death is coming to the crops or cattle (depending on the original text excerpt).

In “The Birthmark,” what does the birthmark represent for the two main characters, Aylmer and Georgiana? At the end of the story
tekilochka [14]

Explanation:

For Georgiana: It was about the flaws each and every individual has. No one is perfect, even though some may say the "yes, I'm perfect and so are you!" so and so. No! For Georgiana, it was a symbol of being human, for being who she was, and not for anyone else. The birthmark meant that she was special and unique in her own way.

For Aylmer: It simply meant about perfection and greed. He was blinded by perfection and the comments of others that made him so obsessed with the word 'perfect' and 'beautiful', that he went to extreme lengths to make that happen, not knowing it would affect him and Georgiana greatly later on. He was blinded by greed. He had Georgiana, no one else did. So, why not make it more? Why not create and transform her into someone who she wasn't. Without the birthmark, Georgiana was simply not Georgiana. She was another person, someone whole new different that Alymer created.

hope this helped!

On Romeo and Juliet, do women play very active roles in the first scene?
miskamm [114]

I am currently reading Romeo and Juliet in my English class. In the first scene, a capulet (juliets family) and a montague (romeos family) are fighting due to a history of the two families hating eachother. There are only a few moments where Romeo's mother comes over to tell her husband to exclude himself from the fight. Juliet's mother also tells her husband to stop. These two women only had one line at this moment. After prince tels them to quit fighting Lady Montague (Romeo's Mother) asks where Romeo is. <u>Only three lines given to these women, so really no, women do not have active roles in the first scene.</u>
