Your question is missing the text that should be read before choosing an appropriate answer. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from Act 2 of <em>A Doll's House</em>:
Nora: How should you understand it? A wonderful thing is going to happen!
Mrs. Linde: A wonderful thing?
Nora: Yes, a wonderful thing!--But it is so terrible, Christine; it mustn't happen, not for all the world.
Mrs. Linde: I will go at once and see Krogstad.
Nora: Don't go to him; he will do you some harm.
Mrs. Linde: There was a time when he would gladly do anything for my sake.
Nora: He?
Mrs. Linde: Where does he live?
What evidence from the text supports the prediction that Mrs. Linde will get back together with Krogstad?
a) Nora tries to convince Mrs. Linde not to go to Krogstad
b) Mrs. Linde does not understand Nora's reasoning.
c) Mrs. Linde says that Krogstad would have done anything for her.
d) Nora says that the wonderful and terrible thing must not happen.
Answer:
The evidence from the text that supports the prediction that Mrs. Linde will get back together with Krogstad is:
c) Mrs. Linde says that Krogstad would have done anything for her.
Explanation:
Nora, Mrs. Linde, and Krogstad are characters in Ibsen's play "A Doll's House".
Nora has committed a crime. At a time when women were not allowed to do several things on their own, she dared borrow some money from the very bank where her husband worked. To do so, she forged her late father's signature. Now that her husband, who has no knowledge of what she has done, wants to fire the employee who loaned her the money, Nora is being blackmailed. The employee, Krogstad, found out about Nora's father's death. He realized he had already died before the day Nora "got" the signature. Now he is threatening to reveal Nora's crime to her husband.
<u>Mrs. Linde, an old friend of Nora's, steps forward to help her friend. As she proposes to go talk to Krogstad, Nora refuses, afraid that her friend will be mistreated. Very much to Nora's surprise, Mrs. Linde says, "There was a time when he would gladly do anything for my sake.
" This line reveals not only that there is some sort of history between Mrs. Linde and Krogstad, but also that there were feelings involved in their past. The audience can assume Krogstad once loved Mrs. Linde. The line also works as a prediction, a foreshadowing. Mrs. Linde is now a widow; Krogstad is still single. Their paths have crossed again because of Nora. There is a chance they may get back together. And, as it turns out, they really do.</u>
