English
1 answer:
Ulleksa [173]3 years ago

Answer:

- By revealing attitudes related to spending and saving that men held during the Victorian era.

Explanation:

The character of Tolvald Helmer is from Henrik Ibsen's play "A Doll's House". Here, the setting and the characterization of the play all resonates with the social and domestic issues of that time.

While Torvald appears to be strict and miserly about how money is spent, his wife Nora seems to have no qualms about borrowing or spending money. Some cases may be for useful needs and requirements, but at times, they were used for some fancy stuffs, not really important and needed for the family. Besides, Torvald feels that it is below himself and uncalled for to ask for money to someone, or even take it on loan. He wants to be independent and manage his domestic affairs independently.

Thus, the characterization of Torvald as a spendthrift by the author is a revealation of the attitudes relating to the way money is spent and also saved by the men during the Victorian period.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer: Perhaps it’s safe to say that most people want to be happy. They want to enjoy being here in this big, crazy, confusing world. But too many people struggle with being truly happy. They can’t seem to find happiness in life. To them, it is something that doesn’t just come naturally. Fortunately, there are plenty of strategies people can use to create happiness, or at least strive for it. It really depends on one’s desire always to feel joy, to feel gratitude even when it is difficult to find, to have the right people by the side, and an exciting job – or at least a hobby – that they feel good about doing, that somehow brings meaning, direction, and purpose into their lives. Happiness doesn’t happen out of anywhere – it has to be worked on; it has to be produced, created, discovered, built from the ground up. And it has to be a decision in one’s mind: the decision to be happy. The procedure is quite simple, believe it or not. One must have a conviction to be happy no matter what trouble life throws at them. Sometimes, life can undoubtedly disrupt a person’s happiness, getting in the way of them enjoying every day of it, with all the countless and never-ending mishaps and suffering. Happiness is a special feeling, something that comes to those who expect it and, therefore, deserve it. Having gratitude – the quality of being thankful; a readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness – is another way people of all cultures cultivate happiness. Instead of focusing their mental and spiritual energy on negative things, like bills, financial problems, health issues, happy people focus on being alive and not decrepit, having people to love and support them, waking up in the morning, having a purpose of pursuing, being able to breathe and think and eat and pray and love. They are grateful for anything and everything. Happy people make gratitude a daily habit, even a ritual.

Explanation: I really hope your day gets better think about the times that have made you happy. Go and teat yourself to something special BECAUSE  YOU DESERVE IT!!

What does the narrator's obsession with finding a pattern in the wallpaper tell the reader about her character?
Ber [7]
Her obsession with finding a pattern reveals her imagination and creativity, which is stifled by her husband and by her being forced to spend so much time in the room.

She is depressed, not able to see her new baby, not permitted to have visitors, and shut in at all times. Since she is denied any opportunity for stimulation or creative outlet, she creates one. Her obsession with the wallpaper, and later the insanity it causes, show what kind of a mind she has. Her mind is one that needs to express itself creatively.
