Helmer: Before all else, you are a wife and a mother. Nora: I don't believe that any longer. I believe that before all else I am

a reasonable human being, just as you are—or, at all events, that I must try and become one. I know quite well, Torvald, that most people would think you right, and that views of that kind are to be found in books; but I can no longer content myself with what most people say, or with what is found in books. I must think over things for myself and get to understand them. What message does the author express through the character of Nora? A. A person should read books to find knowledge. B. A woman should be a good wife and mother. C. A person should listen to what others say. D. A person should discover truth on his or her own.

The correct answer is D. A person should discover the truth on his or her own.

Explanation:

In literature or narratives, it is common the author expresses different messages or believes about life through multiple elements including the character's values, actions, and words. In the case presented, there is a short dialogue between two characters the first one is Helmer who believes Nora is a wife and a mother and the second one is Nora who argues she is a "reasonable human being" and she emphasizes she would not believe or be content with people words or even with the information she found in book but instead she "must think over things ... and get to understand them". This shows the author of this literary work aims at showing a person should not read books or listen to other people to find what is true, but instead a person should find out the truth on his or her own, which is shown through the words and character of Nora.

False.  While the author can include his opinion, this shouldn't happen very often, as in a research paper, you are supposed to mainly be stating facts.

Can someone help me write a poem about school?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

We are seen as people who can be taugh,

Learning things about what we once will face,

I never took it seriously, but at the thought,

I wrinkle my nose, cause I know I must stop,

The thought they take over, my mouth it won't stop,

I need a better filter, and some coffee now brought,

Sip on the bitterness, Add more to yourself,

It feels like we're all loney and live under a rock,

I go to my next class, but now am currently stopped,

I hold my breath until the words are to be said,

You are expelled the women had read,

The way you treat others is something we frown upon,

Nothing can be changed about this decision,

I think it would be better if you could be taught somewhere else,

Because you make this place for others a living hell,

The news was something that I wasn't prowd of,

and now I'm locked in a corner and crowded

but it was to late, everyone had known,

and this is when my real thoughts had been shown,

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I did it for attention,

I know all the days that have been wasted and ruiend

My actions aren't harmless and to everyone they effect,

Please let me stay I'll keep myself in check.

He thought this would work but the dicision was final,

No excuse was to fix the childen and their feelings,

and the whispers of karma are now yelling,

He feels like he's falling and regrets all his tellings,

but he won't say anything, he heads back to class.

Covers his face, and begins walk a little fast,

the jelousy is deserved he thought to himself,

but after all who s to blame, no-one but myself.

(this is only for the student that asked for help. The poems I write, are taken seriously don't sopy right)

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

When Bigger says, 'Half the time I feel like I’m on the outside of the world peeping in through a knot-hole in the fence' he means that, he feels as if he is not a part of this world.

In the novel we come across a phase when Bigger says, ‘Half the time I feel like I’m on the outside of the world peeping in through a knot-hole in the fence.’ By this he means that despite being a part of the world, he feels detached. He doesn’t consider himself as a part of it, he feels that this world is beyond his understanding.
