Question
In the question given below, a passage is given
followed by three statements which may or may not be inferred from the passage. Select the correct combination of statements that can be inferred. The Industrial Revolution introduced mechanized manufacturing and the factory system, shifting production away from small-scale artisanal workshops. To maintain high output, factory owners recruited entire families, including young children, to work long hours in hazardous conditions. In Northern England, parliamentary reports from the 1830s documented the systematic use of punitive fines and physical discipline to ensure that workers met strict production quotas, effectively stripping them of their autonomy. I. Workers in Northern England successfully protested against the use of punitive fines in the 1830s. II. Before the Industrial Revolution, the factory system and mechanized manufacturing were not the primary modes of production. III. Laborers during the Industrial Revolution chose to work in hazardous conditions because of the high wages offered.Solution
The given paragraph talks about the shift in production methods and labor practices during the Industrial Revolution. It tells us that the introduction of mechanized manufacturing shifted production "away from" the previous small-scale workshops. II follows. Thus, C is the right answer. I is incorrect as the paragraph mentions that reports documented these discipline methods, but it does not state whether the workers' responses or protests were successful. III is incorrect as the paragraph mentions that owners "recruited" and used "punitive fines and physical discipline" to ensure work was done, implying a lack of choice rather than a willing pursuit of high wages.
