Ibsen uses drama and irony throughout the play to create the suspense in this passage.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The main consistency of " Doll's House" is dramatic irony. The play revolves around deep irony. There are situations where Nora does realize that the nurse was her only mother and the fact that she was going to leave her children. But the gap between the reality and outside look that is the pretending happy life of Nora, helps the play be more ironic.
The mismatch between the accurate and appearance throughout the play shows the ironic revolution. Ibsen uses drama and irony throughout the play to create the suspense in this passage.
1. Assuming the underlined phrase is 'Living in Salt Lake City,' the correct answer is gerund phrase.
Even though gerunds and participles look the same (both end in -ing), there is a difference between them. Gerunds are always used as nouns (which is the case here - the entire phrase is used as the subject of the sentence) whereas participles are used either as adjectives or adverbs.
2. Assuming the underlined phrase is 'Frustrated by the woman's response,' the correct answer is as an adjective.
Adjectives are used to describe a noun in a sentence. Here, the entire phrase is used to do that - what was the border guard like? Frustrated by the woman's response. Just ask that question and you will easily find the adjective/adjectival phrase in a sentence.
I believe the correct answer to your question would be B) to demonstrate how the theme and plot of a play create meaning. Because its what happens in the story and why its important to the story.
