Nora’s conflict demonstrates that women are expected to remain in the roles assigned to them. That is a difference between life in the late 1800s and life today. Option C is correct.
A Doll's House is a three-act play written by Norway's Henrik Ibsen. The play is relevant for the way it deals with the fate of a married woman, who at the time in Norway did not have reasonable opportunities for self-fulfillment in a male-dominated world.
Nora's conflict in the excerpt from "A Doll's House" best demonstrates a difference between life in the late 1800s and today when it demonstrates that women are expected to remain in the roles assigned to them. (option C)
The main character of the play, Nora, is completely dependent on her husband. He treats her almost like a child, making it clear that she is supposed to look happy and pretty, but not to have opinions and desires.
When Nora begins to break free from her husband's view, he asks her if she cannot understand her place in her own home. That means he has a very rigid view of her role as a woman.
With the information above in mind, we can select letter C as the correct answer.
This is the missing excerpt for this question:
Read the excerpt from act 3 of A Doll's House.
Helmer: Before all else, you are a wife and a mother.
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 become 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.
