Read the passage from A Doll’s House. Helmer: What are little people called that are always wasting money? Nora: Spendthrifts—I

know. Let us do as you suggest, Torvald, and then I shall have time to think what I am most in want of. That is a very sensible plan, isn't it? Helmer: [smiling] Indeed it is—that is to say, if you were really to save out of the money I give you, and then really buy something for yourself. But if you spend it all on the housekeeping and any number of unnecessary things, then I merely have to pay up again. Nora: Oh but, Torvald— Helmer: You can't deny it, my dear little Nora. [Puts his arm round her waist.] It's a sweet little spendthrift, but she uses up a deal of money. One would hardly believe how expensive such little persons are! Nora: It's a shame to say that. I do really save all I can. Helmer: [laughing] That's very true,—all you can. But you can't save anything! Nora: [smiling quietly and happily] You haven't any idea how many expenses we skylarks and squirrels have, Torvald. Based on this passage, which statement is the best inference about Torvald’s character?
He thinks that Nora is keeping secrets from him and chides her for lying.
He is not very generous and does not want Nora to spend money.
He loves his wife, but he treats her like a child rather than an adult.
He does not know Nora well enough to know what to buy her.

Based on this passage from "A Doll's House", by Henrik Ibsen, the statement that is the best inference about Torvald's character <em>He loves his wife, but he treats her like a child rather than an adult</em>. Torvald is delighted by his position of authority as a husband. Nora is not equal to him. He treats her as a doll in a kind and patronizing manner.

I believe the correct answer is B. With the reading of the written stage directions.

It isn't enough to just change the tone or the volume of the characters' voices, as this excerpt has a lot of important "silent" things happening. The stage directions are not mere instructions as to what the actors should do, but also a kind of an interpretation of their actions. That is why it is important that the listener hears those details as well.

Her review of the play revealed her clever _____ when the drama critic simply stated, “If you don’t knit, bring a book.”
diamong [38]

Answer:

When somebody uses knowledge to apply to useful ideas  quickly, we say that person is clever;  now when that clever person is able to associate words and ideas gracefully in a way that conveys confidence, understanding and even humor, we say that person is witty, or has wit.

That statement was funny and mindful, thereby:

<em>"Her review of the play revealed her clever </em><em>wit</em><em>"</em>

16. Collaborative Conversation: How does McGonigal use claims, evidence, and reasoning together to produce an argument? w might​
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

She makes claims based on behavior that are easily visible today and based on historical facts. This provides evidence for the concepts she is claiming to be occurring. This relationship between statements and facts allows it to reason and create a concrete, correct and correct argument.

Explanation:

This question is about the article "Reality Is Broken: Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World" by Jane McGonigal, where she makes a deep and plausible reflection on the increasingly real possibility of human beings exchanging real world we live in for the virtual world.

McGonigal makes a series of efficient and well-constructed arguments, full of affirmations based on historical and current facts. This shows how the author knows how to use reasoning in a timely manner, creating a coherent and fluid text.
