A Doll's House, Part 2: Suspense and Irony

Question 1 • LHS English 10

Which statements best describe the conflict? Select two options.

Answer
A
Helmer is controlling and does not want to be seen as one who lets his wife sway or control him.
B
Krogstad controls Helmer, and he does not want people to know about his past with Helmer.
C
Helmer does not like the way Krogstad tries to be his equal, and he wants to fire him from the bank.
D
Nora controls Helmer, and thinks that Krogstad is not as bad as Helmer believes he is.
E
Krogstad controls Nora, thinks that Nora is irresponsible, and wants to hide his past with Helmer.

Explanation

Helmer is concerned about appearing to let Nora influence his decisions, so he resists her plea to keep Krogstad at the bank. He also dislikes Krogstad acting as though they are equals, especially by addressing him too familiarly, and decides to dismiss him. These details make A and C the best descriptions of the conflict.
