A Doll’s House, Part 3: Theme and Society

Question 6 • CA-Common Core English Language Arts 10

Which statement best explains how Mrs. Linde’s character archetype of the caregiver develops the theme that women make sacrifices in society?

Answer
A
Mrs. Linde had no freedom of choice when her husband proposed to her.
B
Mrs. Linde happily accepted her husband’s proposal.
C
Mrs. Linde has chosen to live a life of freedom with male influence.
D
Mrs. Linde, as a single woman, demonstrates that society thrives through equality.

Explanation

Mrs. Linde explains that she married for financial security so she could support her mother and brothers, rather than because she freely chose her husband. This shows her caregiver role requiring personal sacrifice and limited choice, developing the theme that women make sacrifices in society. Choice A best captures that lack of freedom; B incorrectly suggests she happily married for herself.
