Read the following excerpt and answer the questions that follows.
Mrs. Linde: (Smiles sadly and strokes her hair). It sometimes happens, Nora.
Nora: So you are quite alone. How dreadfully sad that must be. I have three lovely children. You can't see them just now, for they are out with their nurse. But now you must tell me all about it.
Mrs. Linde: No, no; I want to hear about you.
Nora: No, you must begin. I mustn't be selfish today; today I must only think of your affairs. But there is one thing I must tell you. Do you know we have just had a great piece of good luck?
Mrs. Linde: No, what is it?
Nora: Just fancy, my husband has been made manager of the Bank!
Mrs. Linde: Your husband? What good luck!
Nora: Yes, tremendous! A barrister's profession is such an uncertain thing, especially if he won't undertake unsavory cases; and naturally Torvald has never been willing to do that, and I quite agree with him. You may imagine how pleased we are! He is to take up his work in the Bank at the New Year, and then he will have a big salary and lots of commissions. For the future we can live quite differently —we can do just as we like. I feel so relieved and so happy, Christine! It will be splendid to have heaps of money and not need to have any anxiety, won't it?
Mrs. Linde: Yes, anyhow I think it would be delightful to have what one needs.
Nora: No, not only what one needs, but heaps and heaps of money.
Mrs. Linde: (smiling) Nora, Nora, haven't you learned sense yet? In our schooldays you were a great spendthrift. (Laughing) Yes, that is what Torvald says now. (Wags
Nora: her finger at her.) But 'Nora, Nora' is not so silly as you think. We have not been in a position for me to waste money. We have both had to work.
Mrs. Linde: You too?
Nora: Yes; odds and ends, needlework, crotchet-work, embroidery, and that kind of thing. (dropping her voice) And other things as well. You know Torvald left his office when we were married. There was not prospect of promotion there' and he had to try and earn more than before. But during the first year he worked early and late; but he couldn't stand it, and fell dreadfully ill, and the doctors said it was necessary for him to go south.
Mrs. Linde: You spent a whole year in Italy, didn't you?

Nora: Yes!
Helmer: When did my squirrel come home?
Nora: Just now. (Puts the bag of macaroons into her pocket and wipes her mouth.)
come in here, Torvalds, and see what I have bought.
Helmer: Don't disturb me. (A little later, he opens the door and looks into the room, pen in hand.)
Bought, did you say? All these things? Has my little spendthrift been wasting money again?
Nora: Yes but, Torvalds, this year we really can let ourselves go a little. This is the first Christmas that we have not needed to economize.
Helmer: Still, you know, we can't spend money recklessly.
Nora: Yes, Torvalds, we may be a wee bit more reckless now, mayn't we? Just a tiny wee bit! You are going to have a big salary and earn lots and lots of money.
Helmer: Yes, after the New Year; but then it will be a whole quarter before the salary is due.
Nora: Pooh! We can borrow until then.
Helmer: Nora! (Goes up to her and takes her playfully by the ear). The same little featherhead!
Suppose, now, that I borrowed fifty pounds today, and you spent it all in the Christmas week, and then on New Year’s Eve a slate fell on my head and killed me, and —
Nora: (Putting her hands over his mouth) Ah! Don't say such horrible things.
Helmer: Still, suppose that happened, - what then?
Nora: If that were to happen, I don't suppose I should care whether I owed money or not
Helmer: Yes, but what about the people who had lent it?
Nora: They? Who would bother about them? I should not know who they were.
Helmer: That is like a woman! But seriously, Nora, you know what I think about that. No debt, no borrowing. There can be no freedom or beauty about a home life that depends on borrowing and debt. We two have kept bravely on the straight road so far, and we will Go on the same way for the short time longer that there need be any struggle.

Helmer: I have got authority from the retiring manager to undertake the necessary changes in the staff and in the re-arrangement of the work and I must make use of the Christmas week for that, so as to have everything in order for the New Year, Nora. Then that was why this poor Krogstad-
Helmer: Hm!
Nora: (Leans against the back of his chair and strokes his hair) If you hadn’t been so busy I should have asked you a tremendously big favour, Torvald.
Helmer: What is that? Tell me.
Nora: There is no one who has such good taste as you. And I do so want to look nice at the fancy dress ball. Tovarld. Couldn’t you take my hand and decide what I shall go as, and what sort of dress I shall wear?
Helmer: Aha! So my obstinate little woman is obliged to get someone to come to her rescue.
Nora: Yes, Torvald, I can’t get along a bit without your help.
Helmer: Very well. I will think it over; we shall manage to hit upon something
Nora: That is nice of you (goes to the Christmas tree; a short pause) How pretty the red flowers look, but tell me, was it really something very bad that this Krogstad was guilty of?
Helmer: He forged someone’s name. Have you any idea what that means?
Nora: Isn’t it possible that he was driven by necessity?
Helmer: Yes; or, as in so many cases, by imprudence. I am not so heartless as to condemn a man altogether because of a single false step of that kind.
Nora: No, you wouldn’t, would you, Torvald?
Helmer: Many a man has been able to retrieve his character, if he has openly confessed his fault and taken his punishment.
Nora: Punishment -?
Helmer: But Krogstard did nothing of the sort; he got himself out of it by a cunning trick, and that is why he was gone under altogether.
Nora: But do you think it would -?
Helmer: Just think how a guilty man like that has to lie and play the hypocrite with everyone; how he has to wear a mask in the presence of those near dear to him, even before his own wife and children. And about the children ……… that is the most terrible part of it all, Nora.
Nora: How?
Helmer: Because such an atmosphere of lies infects and poisons the whole life of home. Each breath the children take in such a house is full of the germs of evil.
Nora: (coming near him) Are you sure of that?
Helmer: My dear I have often seen it in the course of my life as a lawyer. Almost everyone who has gone to the bad early in life has had a deceitful mother.
Nora: Why do you say ……….. mother?

(Solved)
Read the excerpt below and then answer the questions that follow.
Nora. What right have you to question me, Mr.Krogstad?–You, one of my husband’s subordinates! But since you ask, you shall know. Yes, Mrs. Linde is to have an appointment. And it was I who pleaded her cause, Mr. Krogstad, let me tell you that.
Krogstad. I was right in what I thought, then.
Nora (walking up and down the stage). Sometimes one has a tiny little bit of influence, I should hope. Because one is a woman, it does not necessarily follow that–. When anyone is in a subordinate position, Mr. Krogstad, they should really be careful to avoid offending anyone who–who–
Krogstad. Who has influence?
Nora. Exactly.
Krogstad (changing his tone). Mrs. Helmer, you will be so good as to use your influence on my behalf.
Nora. What? What do you mean?
Krogstad. You will be so kind as to see that I am allowed to keep my subordinate position in the Bank.
Nora. What do you mean by that? Who proposes to take your post away from you?
Krogstad. Oh, there is no necessity to keep up the pretence of ignorance. I can quite understand that your friend is not very anxious to expose herself to the chance of rubbing shoulders with me; and I quite understand, too, whom I have to thank for being turned off.
Nora. But I assure you–
Krogstad. Very likely; but, to come to the point, the time has come when I should advise you to use your influence to prevent that.
Nora. But, Mr. Krogstad, I have no influence.
Krogstad. Haven’t you? I thought you said yourself just now–
Nora. Naturally I did not mean you to put that construction on it. I! What should make you think I have any influence of that kind with my husband?
Krogstad. Oh, I have known your husband from our student days. I don’t suppose he is any more unassailable than other husbands.
Nora. If you speak slightingly of my husband, I shall turn you out of the house.
Krogstad. You are bold, Mrs. Helmer.
Nora. I am not afraid of you any longer. As soon as the New Year comes, I shall in a very short time be free of the whole thing.
Krogstad (controlling himself ). Listen to me, Mrs.Helmer. If necessary, I am prepared to fight for my small post in the Bank as if I were fighting for my life.
Nora. So it seems.
Krogstad. It is not only for the sake of the money; indeed, that weighs least with me in the matter. There is another reason–well, I may as well tell you. My position is this. I daresay you know, like everybody else, that once, many years ago, I was guilty of an indiscretion
Nora. I think I have heard something of the kind.
Krogstad. The matter never came into court; but every way seemed to be closed to me after that. So I took to the business that you know of. I had to do something; and, honestly, I don’t think I’ve been one of the worst. But now I must cut myself free from all that. My sons are growing up; for their sake I must try and win back as much respect as I can in the town. This post in the Bank was like the first step up for me–and now your husband is going to kick me downstairs again into the mud.
Nora. But you must believe me, Mr. Krogstad; it is not in my power to help you at all.
Krogstad. Then it is because you haven’t the will; but I have means to compel you.
(a) Krogstad asks four questions just before this excerpt. Which are they?
(b) For what reasons has Krogstad visited Nora? Refer to what happens in the excerpt and in the rest of the play.

Nora : What ought I to make an end to?
Mrs. Linde: Of two things I think. Yesterday you talked some nonsense about a rich admirer who was to leave you money-
Nora Linde: Is Doctor Rank a man of means?
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 hereevery 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 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.

WHY THE OWL IS NOT KING OF THE BIRDS: INDIANTALE
WHY is it that Crows torment the Owls as they sleep in the daytime? For the same reason that the Owls try to kill the Crows while they sleep at night
Listen to a tale of long ago and then you will see why.
Once upon a time, the people who lived together when the world was young took a certain man for their king. The four-footed animals also took one of their numbers for their king. The fish in the ocean chose a king to rule over them. Then the birds gathered together on a great flat rock, crying:
"Among men there is a king, and among the beasts, and the fish have one, too; but we bird have none. We ought to have a king. Let us choose one now."
And so the birds talked the matter over and at last they all said, "Let us have the Owl for our king."
No, not all, for one old Crow rose up and said, "For my part, I don't want the Owl to be our king. Look at him now while you are all crying that you want him for your king. See how sour he looks right now. If that's the cross look he wears when he is happy, how will he look when he is angry? I, for one, want no such sour-looking king!"
Then the Crow flew up into the air crying, "I don't like it! I don't like it!" The Owl rose and followed him. From that time on the Crows and the Owls have been enemies. The birds chose a Turtle Dove to be their king, and then flew to their homes.
