Answer:

The answer is indeed “You will see I am man enough to take everything upon myself.”

Explanation:

Torvald and Nora Helmer are husband and wife in the play "A Doll's House", by Henrik Ibsen. Torvald is an abusive husband who treats Nora as if she were his inferior in every possible way. He likes to think of himself as her savior, and tries to live up to the idea that a husband must provide and protect, even if that involves killing someone. Or, at least, those are the words that come out of his mouth. Torvald's character is much alike to a child's as several passages in the play reveal. It's almost as if he lives life in his delusional imagination, as a little spoiled tyrant.

In the specific excerpt we are studying here, the line that best serves as evidence to the theme that men are expected to be providers and protectors is:

“You will see I am man enough to take everything upon myself.”

Nora and Torvald are talking of a possible revenge by another character. Torvald seems to believe that, as a man, he is supposed to defend his family and himself no matter what. If he has to kill someone, then be it. He would only be acting as the man he is. When Nora reacts with shock, he condescendingly tells her that they shall share the crime, as husband and wife should. That means he expects her to be loyal to him under any circumstances.

Answer:

Once you have determined the existence of a duty, you must determine whether or not the defendant has breached his duty. A defendant can breach his duty both by acting in a certain manner or by failing to act in a certain manner. That is to say, a defendant can breach his duty either by acting in a manner that violates the reasonable man test, or by not acting in a situation where he is legally required to act.

That being said, the accident could've been avoided if Rachel had not gotten angry and thrown the frying pan out of the window. She failed to act properly.

Answer:Teleological proof or argument

Explanation:The teleological or physico-theological argument, is the one which is based on the fact that if all premises about the natural world are true and one agrees that they are this means that the drawn conclusion is also true about the existence of God. This is an argument used mostly to observe how true premises in the natural world are and due to these evidence drawn from the evidence of the designs seen in the natural world one can not help but conclude that they must be a sovereign God who is responsible for all those designs .

The conclusion is true when all the premises are all true.
