Answer:

Helmer acts kindly toward Mrs. Linde while she is present, but insults her when she leaves.

Explanation:

In Henrik Ibsen's realism play "A Doll's House", the main and also recurring theme is that of appearance and reality. The very case of the two conflicting themes is played out in the character of Helmer.

Helmer is the husband of our protagonist Nora. He seems to be the type of man who wants to have full authority over his wife and children. He admonishes Nora even when she wants to buy something for herself. One of the most prominent cases of his contrasting characters is in Act 3 where he acts all so good and gentlemanly with Mrs. Linde, a friend of Nora. She had been waiting for them the whole time they had gone dancing upstairs. But once she leaves, he remarks "<em>at last we have got rid of her. She is a frightful bore, that woman</em>". This shows his differing appearances of when in public and in private.

Answer:

<u>Step 1:  Determine which options are correct </u>

How does the conflict between Helmer’s private and public selves develop the theme that appearances can be deceiving?

- Option C:  Helmer acts kindly toward Mrs. Linde while she is present, but insults her when she leaves.

The option that makes sense is Option C because the conflict between Helmer's private and public selves help make a theme that Helmer acts nice toward Mrs. Linde while she is there and then insults her when she leaves.

Discuss whether Shakespeare's adaptation of the historic love story Romeo and Juliet places an emphasis on moral behavior. Use e
coldgirl [10]
An emphasis on moral behavior (and the questioning of it) is at the core of "Romeo and Juliet". The main conflict revolves around it: how ethical it is to fall in love with my family's enemy? During the course of the drama, this moral question transforms into another one: How ethical it is to hate other people in the first place, based only on their surname?

The ethical question gets especially complicated when Juliet thinks about marrying Paris. To her, it seems as if she would betray Romeo, which she would never do; but the paradox is that if she betrayed Romeo, she would undo the betrayal of her family. In spite of that, she doesn't want to give up on her loyalty to Romeo. In Act 4, Scene 1, she says:

JULIET 
O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris,
From off the battlements of yonder tower,
Or walk in thievish ways, or bid me lurk
Where serpents are. Chain me with roaring bears;
Or shut me nightly in a charnel house,
O'ercovered quite with dead men's rattling bones,
With reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls.
Or bid me go into a new-made grave
And hide me with a dead man in his shroud
<span>(Things that, to hear them told, have made me </span>
   tremble),
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
<span>To live an unstained wife to my sweet love.</span>
