As far as I am concerned, Dr. Rank provides a contrast to Torvald in Henrik Ibsen’s ‘’ A Doll’s House ‘’ when Mrs Linde need help for finding a job and he shows his apathetic attitude towards her and her problem, whereas the second male character (Torvald) generously finds one suitable job for her. So, without a doubt I choose the first option A.Dr. Rank seems indifferent about Mrs. Linde's need for a job, while Torvald readily agrees to offer her one.
