Answer:
Based on the distinction drawn between Hamsun and Ibsen, the inference that seems most reasonable is:
2. Ibsen is a writer concerned with how problems can be fixed or mitigated.
Explanation:
<u>The work of Norwegian writer Henrik Ibsen focused on social issues considered taboo during the 19th century, such as sexually-transmitted diseases and sexism.</u> It is not that Ibsen was fascinated with horror or tragedy. Rather, he was brave and bold enough to approach such themes and even present a controversial way of dealing with them. In the play "A Doll's House", for instance, Nora ends up leaving her abusive husband.
<u>Having that in mind and taking the passage into consideration, we can see that Ibsen is a writer concerned with how problems can be fixed or mitigated. While Hamsun seems to view social problems as tolerable and humorous, as something not worth fighting against, Ibsen sees them as central, important, and changeable.</u>
The word <em>that </em>is used as a relative pronoun here, it can be interchanged with the pronoun <em>which, </em>and both are used to connect two parts of a sentence.
