Which evidence from the text supports the prediction that Helmer learn the contents of the letter select three options

sashaice [31]

This question concerns Act 2 of the play "A Doll's House". I've found the options online. They are the following:

What evidence from the text supports the prediction that Helmer will learn the contents of the letter? Select three options.

Helmer knows that there is a piece of mail from Krogstad in the box.

Nora looks at her watch and tells herself she has 31 hours to live.

Helmer thinks that Nora is nervous and dismisses her pleas about the mail.

Mrs. Linde fails to find Krogstad so he can take back the piece of mail.

Nora expresses her intention of having a champagne banquet.

Answer:

The three correct options are:

A. Helmer knows that there is a piece of mail from Krogstad in the box.

C. Helmer thinks that Nora is nervous and dismisses her pleas about the mail.

D. Mrs. Linde fails to find Krogstad so he can take back the piece of mail.

Explanation:

“A Doll’s House” is a play by Henrik Ibsen that was quite scandalous for addressing and criticizing the way women were treated and seen not only by society, but also by their own families. Nora, the main character in the play, is being blackmailed. She once took a loan from the very bank where her husband, Torvald Helmer, works without his knowledge. Since women were not allowed to do such thing, she forged her father’s signature. Now, her husband wants to fire Krogstad, an employee of the bank. But Krogstad is threatening Nora, demanding that she get her husband to take him back lest he reveals the truth about her loan.

In Act 2, Nora is desperate because she knows there is a letter from Krogstad to her husband in the letter box, and so does Helmer. She pleads with him to not read any mail until after a party the next day, but her husband thinks she is acting this way out of nervousness, and dismisses her pleas. To make matters worse, Nora's friend, Mrs. Linde, fails to contact Krogstad and ask him to retrieve the letter. All of that is evidence that supports the prediction that Helmer will learn the contents of the letter.

Question 1 (Worth 5 points) [MC] The Pony Express Chapter I At A Nation's Crisis The fall of Fort Sumter in April, 1861, did not produce the Civil War crisis. For many months, the gigantic struggle then imminent had been painfully discernible to far-seeing men. In 1858, Lincoln had forewarned the country in his "House Divided" speech. As early as the beginning of the year 1860 the Union had been plainly in jeopardy. Early in February of that momentous year, Jefferson Davis, on behalf of the South, had introduced his famous resolutions in the Senate of the United States. This document was the ultimatum of the dissatisfied slave-holding commonwealths. It demanded that Congress should protect slavery throughout the domain of the United States. The territories, it declared, were the common property of the states of the Union and hence open to the citizens of all states with all their personal possessions. The Northern states, furthermore, were no longer to interfere with the working of the Fugitive Slave Act. They must repeal their Personal Liberty laws and respect the Dred Scott Decision of the Federal Supreme Court. Neither in their own legislatures nor in Congress should they trespass upon the right of the South to regulate slavery as it best saw fit. These resolutions, demanding in effect that slavery be thus safeguarded—almost to the extent of introducing it into the free states—really foreshadowed the Democratic platform of 1860 which led to the great split in that party, the victory of the Republicans under Lincoln, the subsequent secession of the more radical southern states, and finally the Civil War, for it was inevitable that the North, when once aroused, would bitterly resent such pro-slavery demands. And this great crisis was only the bursting into flame of many smaller fires that had long been smoldering. For generations the two sections had been drifting apart. Since the middle of the seventeenth century, Mason and Dixon's line had been a line of real division separating two inherently distinct portions of the country. Reread these lines from the Chapter 1 excerpt and answer the question that follows: These resolutions, demanding in effect that slavery be thus safeguarded—almost to the extent of introducing it into the free states—really foreshadowed the Democratic platform of 1860 which led to the great split in that party, the victory of the Republicans under Lincoln, the subsequent secession of the more radical southern states, and finally the Civil War, for it was inevitable that the North, when once aroused, would bitterly resent such pro-slavery demands. Which of the following best summarizes the message of these lines? The radical southern states instigated the Civil War. The North expected and demanded Civil War. Differing opinions on slavery contributed to the Civil War. Disputes between political parties had little effect on the Civil War. Points earned on this question: 0
