Answer 1

Here's how the trends during the Industrial Revolution match with their effects on workers:

1. Cities became more populated with unemployed people looking for factory work.
   --> Workers were subjected to poor working conditions and long hours.

2. Paid workers had money to purchase manufactured goods, which further fueled the economy.
   --> More people believed paid work would strengthen the economy.

3. Labor unions were formed to unite workers as an organized group.
   --> Workers were subjected to poor working conditions and long hours.

4. Enclosure Acts caused many small-scale farmers to lose their jobs.
   --> Workers were subjected to poor working conditions and long hours.

To clarify, labor movements often arose in response to poor working conditions, and the loss of jobs from the Enclosure Acts contributed to a labor force seeking factory work. The paid work did help boost the economy, leading to a cycle of increased production and consumption.
