The advice that Ophelia receives from her brother Laertes is extremely different from the advice her father Polonius gives her. Laertes gently reminds Ophelia that Hamlet might really love her, but since he is in line for the throne he and might not actually be able to choose his wife for himself. He warns her to keep her affection "Out of the shot and danger of desire," meaning to not give in to her desires, otherwise she might ruin herself for future potential husbands. Polonius' advice is a little bit more aggressive. He scolds Ophelia for giving Hamlet too much attention, and says that there is no way Hamlet actually loves her. He says that his vows she "<span>must not take for fire", meaning she should not take his words for true passion. The overall difference between Laertes and Polonius is that Laertes is much gentler, and believes Hamlet might actually have feelings for her right now, and Polonius is putting more blame on Ophelia, saying there is no way Hamlet actually likes her.

Answer:

I believe the two best options are:

A) Norah and Judith deserve more credit than they receive.

D) People who oppress women are not necessarily motivated by a desire to harm them.

Explanation:

From the excerpts, we can conclude that the female characters are treated as if they were inferior. Their position in society is one of submission, be it to their husbands - as in A Doll's House - or to their parents - as in A Room of One's Own. Norah and Judith do not receive the credit they deserve: they are expected to do as they are told even if it is unfair; on the other hand, they are not allowed to do more than what society whishes them do, even culturally.

We can also note from the excerpts that Norah's husband is a cruel tyrant of a husband. However, Judith's parents are not trying to harm their daughter. Their intentions are good, and they love her; they believe they are raising her to fulfill a certain - proper - role in society.
