Explanation:
Henrik Ibsen's play "A Doll's House" shows the family life of the Helmers and how money seemed to play an important role not only in the house but also in the society.The couple Torvald Helmer and his wife Nora are two very opposite personalities who seemed to contradict each other.
1. The relationship of the married couple is of two contrasting personalities, one a spendthrift and another a miser. While the husband tries to save as much money as possible, the wife has no qualms of spending in excess. Money seemed to play a huge role in the relationship, with Torvald calling Nora his little doll and all names but called her real name whenever he's angry. He loves her for her pretty face and expected her to take good care of the house and the children. She was a good mother, obedient but couldn't seem to care much about saving money.
2. After the New Year, Torvald was to be made the Manager at the bank he works. This means that the family will have a better and more amount of money coming in, with Nora exclaiming "<em>big salary and earn more</em>" and "<em>heaps and heaps of money</em>".
3. Mrs. Christine Linde is one of Nora's old friend. She had returned back after being widowed and her mother had died. Also, she wants a job and be independent after her brothers don't need her anymore. She had come to ask Nora for help regarding getting a job at Torvald's bank.
In “The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin, adjective what best describes Mrs. Mallard is repressed.
Kate Chopin describe Mrs. Mallard as "Young, with a fair, calm face, whose lines bespoke repression and even a certain strength." The lines on the face of Mrs. Mallard is described to indicate that she keeps many things inside her repressed. Mrs. Mallard doesn't give her feelings a free reign. Also, suffering from medical conditions, she puts her life to threat. We learn that she due to her marriage sufferings and is not optimistic about her married life. We learn this when she wishes for her life to be short, a night before the death of her husband. as an option to marriage, she would welcome her death gladly.
When Josephine inform Mrs. Mallard about the death of her husband we tend to observe her first reaction where she weeps into her sister’s arm and was hard to take. <em>“She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister’s arms.”</em> In such grief she rushes off to her room to be alone, later it is observed that “But now there was a dull stare in her eyes, whose gaze was fixed away off yonder on one of those patches of blue sky. It was not a glance of reflection, but rather indicated a suspension of intelligent thought.” And the reader sees something coming to her and speaks softly “free, free, free!.” This situation can be dramatic as only the reader knows the real feeling of Mrs. Mallard. On the other hand, other characters are not aware of her real feelings. She celebrates it and by the end, she is dead with a heartbreak, wherein, her husband receives the news of Louise's death.

"I told you I should have stayed home!" Billy protested plaintively. "I'm missing the first game of the playoffs, and my team really needs me!"
"I understand—" began his father.
"No, you don’t understand," said Billy, "because you never cared about anything like I care about baseball, not in your whole life."
"I'm not going to argue with you," said his father. "My family lives on this farm, we come out here for one week every summer, and Grandma M needs to be included in this visit. I want you to take one for the team."
