In order to answer this question, one must think about the time period. This is long before women had jobs outside of the home. They were expected to care for the home and the children, take care of the needs of their husband, and be seen, not heard. Keeping those characteristics in mind and reading through all the answers, the only logical answer would be the first one: In the 1800s, women were expected to be submissive to men (do what they are told to do by the man), and Nora was discovering that Helmer has taken advantage of that.
Answer:
You need to find <u>clues</u> from the text in order to make a prediction.
Explanation:
When we're reading a book, we can often catch ourselves wondering about what's going to happen next and trying to predict different things, such as what the book will be about, what the author is trying to tell us, what would happen next at the end of the book if it were to continue, etc.
Predicting requires us to:
- find and use clues within the text, and
- use what we already know from personal experience or knowledge.

BTW I'm a sophomore
Answer:
Shakespeare presents Lady Macbeth with a strong sense of ambition and greed which would have been expected more in a man when this was written, implying she is no longer a feminine character. The quote "Unsex me here" implies she doesn't want the gender bias that will come with being a ruler. She is openly rejecting femininity which would have been foreign to the audience watching the play at the time.
Furthermore, Lady Macbeth is presented as an evil being, associating with demons and the suoernatural. This would have terrified the audience as most people were very religious and superstitious. Likewise, the king at the time King James was obsessed with demonology and witchcraft. The play was written for the King, and this would have interested him. We see in the quote Come you spirits, tend on mortal thoughts" she is calling upon demons to help her in this crime and turn her pure with cruelty. This shows that Lady Macbeth is evil as Macbeth was approached by witches whereas his wife calls upon them.
In addition, Lady Macbeth is presented as a fem fatal - the female villain-. We see this in the quote "come to my womans breasts and take my milk for gall" this suggests she is rejecting the only thing that was seen as any value in a woman and replaces it with poison. Shakespeare is breaking the female stereotype of the Jackobean era, a woman had to be delicate, submissive and sweet whereas Lady Macbeth rebels against her expectations and becomes the most dangerous villain of the play.
