People in the United States in the nineteenth century were 【C1】______ by the 【C2】______ that unprecedented change in the nation’s economy would bring social 【C3】______ . In the years following 1820, after several decades of relative stability, the economy 【C4】______ a period of 【C5】______ and extremely rapid growth that continued to the end of the nineteenth century. 【C6】______ that growth was a structural change that 【C7】______ by increasing economic diversification and a gradual shift in the nation’s labor force from agriculture to manufacturing and other nonagricultural pursuits.

As the population grew, its 【C8】______ also changed. Massive waves of immigration brought new ethnic groups into the country. Geographic and social mobility--downward as well as upward-- 【C9】______ almost everyone. Local studies 【C10】______ that nearly three-quarters of the population in the North and South, the emerging cities of the Northeast, and in the restless rural counties of the West changed their residence each decade.

As the size of families decreased, the roles of husband and wife became more clearly 【C17】______ than ever before. In the middle class especially, men participated in the productive economy while women 【C18】______ the home and served as the custodians of civility and culture. The intimacy of marriage that was 【C19】______ in earlier periods was rent, and a gulf that at times seemed unbridgeable was 【C20】______ between husbands and wives.
