Over a hundred years ago, Charles Dickens shocked many of his readers when he described the conditions under which young children worked in British factories. The conditions Dickens described continue almost【1】today in many parts of the world. The only difference is that today【2】of children is limited to small industries and family businesses, such as hotels, restaurants and 【3】farms, rather than to large factories.
Girls【4】more from child labor practices man boys. Many of them are forced to start work when they are only ten years old. Although the work they are given to do is often【5】, it is often harmful to their health.【6】, children as young as six years were found to be working in Asian factories, and the children were working from eight to fourteen hours a day in overcrowded and unhealthy working【7】. Sometimes a whole family group is employed, with the【8】going to a parent or older relative. The children not only receive nothing or very little for their long hours of work, but also they are prevented from attending school. Therefore, when they become older they are unable to do any other kind of work.
The【9】to the problem of child labor is clearly better laws to protect young children, greater supervision of industry and heavier fines for those who break the laws. Only in this way can young boys and girls be allowed to enjoy the most【10】time of their lives—children.
A. elsewhere B. employment C. dissolved D. light
E. recently F. solution G. unchanged H. suffer
I. conditions J. perspective K. impatient L. valuable
M. particularly N. proceed O. payment
【8】
选项
答案
O
解析
此处应为名词。从下一句提到的The children…receive nothing可以推断本句表明童工的工资付给了他们的父母或年长的亲人,因此payment是本题答案。
