Which statement best compare Nora and Mrs. Linde’s traits?
Mrs Linde: Listen to me, Nora Dear. Haven’t you’ve been a little bit imprudent?
Nora: [sits up straight] is it imprudent to save your husband’s life?
Mrs. Linde: It seems to me imprudent, without his knowledge, to—
Nora: but it was absolutely necessary that he should not know! My goodness, can’t you understand that? It was necessary he should have no idea what a dangerous condition he was in. It was to me that the doctors came and said that his life was in danger, and that the only thing to save him was to live in the south. Do you suppose I didn’t try, first of all, to get what I wanted as if it were for myself? I told him how much I should love to travel abroad like other young wives; I tried tears in and treaties with him; I told him that he ought to remember the condition I was in, and that he ought to be kind and indulgent to me; I even hinted that he might raise alone. That nearly made him angry, Christine. He said I was thoughtless, and that it was his duty as my husband not to indulge me in my whims and caprices— as I believe he called them. Very well, I thought, you must be saved— and that was how I came to devise a way out of the difficulty—
Mrs. Linde: and did your husband ever get to know from your father that the money had not come from him?
Nora: no, never. Papa died just at that time. I had meant to let him into the secret and beg him never to reveal it. But he was so ill then—alas, there never was any need to tell him.
Mrs. Linde: and since then have you never told your secret to your husband?
Nora: good heavens, no! How could you think so? Imagine who has such strong opinions about these things! And besides, how painful and humiliating it would be for Torvald, with his manly independent, to know that he owed me anything! It would upset our mutual relations all together; our beautiful happy home will no longer be what it is now.
(A) Nora believes that lying with good intentions is fine, while Mrs. Linde believes that lying to one’s husband is wrong.
(B) Nora believes that it is never prudent for a wife to tell her husband what she does with money, while Mrs. Linde thinks that only small lies are acceptable.
(C) Mrs. Linde is a spendthrift, well Nora is frugal with the money she is giving a report back to her husband about every penny.
(D) Mrs. Linde is frugal and dishonest, while Nora spends a lot and is honest with her husband about where she gets money for extras.
