The fish died, because, using context clues, the word mournfully is usually associated with death or someone/ something leaving, and since a fish couldn't swim away, we would have to believe that the fish has died.

The word that best matches the meaning of the expression "went to the big ocean" is died.

The goldfish died, which is why the father looks at the children mournfully. The "big ocean" is the father's way of saying fish heaven. He could have just said that the goldfish died, but this way, the children imagine the fish in a bigger, better place instead of just picturing a dead fish.

It can be inferred form the excerpt that the conflict introduced is that: "Krogstad tries to blackmail Nora into getting Helmer to keep him at the bank by exposing her forgery." (Option C)

<h3 /><h3>What is a Conflict?</h3>

A conflict is the tension between two ideals. Usually, this is relative to the protagonist and other internal and or external elements of the play or plot.

Only Nora's father can assist Krogstad in regaining his much desired position at the bank as he has lost his employment there.

Knowing this, Krogstad contacts Nora and advises her to persuade her father to reinstall Krogstad in his position at the bank by speaking with him.

When Nora declines, Krogstad threatens to reveal material that would damage her image unless she puts in a nice word for him with her father. After a brief exchange of minor insults, Nora ultimately caves.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

<u>Full Question</u>

<u></u>

Read the excerpt from act 2 of A Doll's House. Nora: [quickly] He mustn't get the letter. Tear it up. I will find some means of getting money. Krogstad: Excuse me, Mrs. Helmer, but I think I told you just now— Nora: I am not speaking of what I owe you. Tell me what sum you are asking my husband for, and I will get the money. Krogstad: I am not asking your husband for a penny. Nora: What do you want, then? Krogstad: I will tell you. I want to rehabilitate myself, Mrs. Helmer; I want to get on; and in that your husband must help me. For the last year and a half I have not had a hand in anything dishonorable, amid all that time I have been struggling in most restricted circumstances. I was content to work my way up step by step. Now I am turned out, and I am not going to be satisfied with merely being taken into favor again. I want to get on, I tell you. I want to get into the Bank again, in a higher position. Your husband must make a place for me— Nora: That he will never do! Krogstad: He will; I know him; he dare not protest. And as soon as I am in there again with him, then you will see! Within a year I shall be the manager's right hand. It will be Nils Krogstad and not Torvald Helmer who manages the Bank. Nora: That's a thing you will never see! Krogstad: Do you mean that you will—? Nora: I have courage enough for it now. Krogstad: Oh, you can't frighten me. A fine, spoilt lady like you— Nora: You will see, you will see. Krogstad: Under the ice, perhaps? Down into the cold, coal-black water? And then, in the spring, to float up to the surface, all horrible and unrecognizable, with your hair fallen out— Nora: You can't frighten me. Krogstad: Nor you me. People don't do such things, Mrs. Helmer. Besides, what use would it be? I should have him completely in my power all the same. Nora: Afterwards? When I am no longer— Krogstad: Have you forgotten that it is I who have the keeping of your reputation? [NORA stands speechlessly looking at him.] Well, now, I have warned you. Do not do anything foolish. When Helmer has had my letter, I shall expect a message from him. And be sure you remember that it is your husband himself who has forced me into such ways as this again. I will never forgive him for that. Goodbye, Mrs. Helmer. [Exit through the hall.]

What conflict does Krogstad introduce?

A) Krogstad tells Nora that he has written a letter telling Helmer about her affair with the doctor.

B) Krogstad refuses to forgive Helmer unless Nora finds a way to come up with more money.

C) Krogstad tries to blackmail Nora into getting Helmer to keep him at the bank by exposing her forgery.
