- Read the excerpt below and answer the questions that follow.(Solved)
Nora: I don’t believe that any longer. I believe that before all else I am a reasonable human being, just as you are – or at all events, that I must try and became one. I know quite well, Torvald that most people would think you right, and that views of that kind are to be found in books; but I can no longer content myself with what most people say, or with what is found in books. I must think over things for myself and get to understand them
HELMER: Can you not understand your place in your own home? Have you not a reliable guide in such matters as that? - have you no religion?
Nora: I am afraid, Torvald, I do not exactly know what religion is.
HELMER: What are you saying?
Nora: I know nothing but what the clergyman said, when I went to be confirmed. He told us that religion was this and that, and the other. When I am away from all this, and I am alone, I will look into that matter too. I will see if what the clergyman said is true, or at all events if it is true for me.
Helmer: This is unheard of in a girl of your age! But if religion cannot lead you alright, let me try and awaken your conscience. I suppose you have some moral sense? Or –answer me- am I to think you have none?
Nora: I assure you, Torvald that is not an easy question to answer. I really don’t know. The thing perplexes me all together. I only know that you and I look at it in a quite different light. I am learning, too, that the law is quite another thing from what I suppose; but I find it quite impossible to convince myself that the law is right. According to it a woman has no right to spare her old dying father, or to save her husband’s life. I can’t believe that.
Helmer: You talk like a child. You don’t understand the conditions of the world in which you live.
Nora: No, I don’t. But now I am going to try. I am going to see if I can make out who is right, the world or I.

- Read the exatract below and answer the questions that follow.(Solved)
Mrs. Linde: Is Doctor Rank a man of means?
Nora: Yes, he is.
Mrs. Linde: And has no one to provide for?
Nora: No, no one; but-
Mrs. Linde: And comes here every day?
Nora: Yes, I told you so.
Mrs. Linde: But how can this well –bred man be so tactless?
Nora: I don’t understand you at all
Mrs. Linde: Don’t prevaricate, Nora. Do you suppose I don’t guess who lent you the two hundred and Fifty pounds?
Nora: Are you out of your senses? How can you think of such a thing! A friend of ours who comes here every day! Do you realize what a horribly painful position that would be?
Mrs. Linde: Then it really isn’t he?
Nora: No, certainly not. It would never have entered into my head for a moment. Besides, he had no money to lend then; he came into his money afterwards.
Mrs. Linde: Well, I think that was lucky for you, my dear Nora.
Nora: No, it would never have come into my head to ask Doctor Rank. Although I am quite sure that if I had asked him-
Mrs. Linde: But of course you won’t.
Nora: Of course not. I have no reason to think it could possibly be necessary. But I am quite sure that if I told Doctor Rank
Mrs. Linde: Behind your husband’s back?
Nora: I must make an end of it with the other one, and that will be behind his back too. I must make an end of it with him.
Mrs. Linde: Yes, that is what I told you yesterday, but –
Nora: (walking up and down) A man can put a thing like that straight much easier than a woman –
Mrs. Linde: One’s husband, yes.
Nora: Nonsense! (Standing still) When you pay off a debt you get your bond back, don’t you?
Mrs. Linde: Yes, as a matter of course.
Nora: And can tear it into a hundred thousand pieces, and burn it up- the nasty dirty paper!
Mrs. Linde: (looks hard at her, lays down her sewing and gets up slowly) Nora, you are concealing something from me
Nora: Do I look as if I were?
Mrs. Linde: Something has happened to you since yesterday morning. Nora, what is it?
