## Sample Question

**Women Miners in the English Coal Pits**

> [I] work from 6 in the morning to 6 at night. ... I have two children, but they are too young to work. I worked at drawing when I was in the family way [pregnant]. I know a woman who has gone home and washed herself, taken to her bed, delivered of a child, and gone to work again [in less than a] week.HTMLBREAKI have a belt round my waist, and a chain passing between my legs, and I go on my hands and feet through the mine. The road is very steep, and we have to hold on by a rope; and when there is no rope, by anything we can catch hold of. There are six women and about six boys and girls in the pit I work in; it is very hard work for a woman. ... My clothes are wet through almost all day long...HTMLBREAKI am very tired when I get home at night; I fall asleep sometimes before I get washed. I am not so strong as I was, and cannot stand my work so well as I used to. ... The belt and chain is worse when we are in the family way. My feller [partner/husband] has beaten me many a times for not being ready. ... I have known many a man [supervisor] beat his drawer. I have known men take liberties with the drawers, and some of the women have bastards.

The tone and specific details included in this testimony suggest it was most likely intended for which of the following audiences?

- (A) Parliamentary investigators or reform advocates seeking evidence of workplace exploitation
- (B) Working-class readers seeking inspiration for labor union organization
- (C) Middle-class philanthropists seeking emotional narratives to justify charitable interventions
- (D) International socialist organizations building theoretical arguments about capitalist exploitation

**Answer: (A)** The correct answer synthesizes multiple textual elements: the systematic enumeration of specific working conditions (lines describing hours, apparatus, physical effects), the factual tone without rhetorical flourish, and the structural organization moving from routine to consequences. These features collectively indicate testimony designed for official investigation rather than other audiences. The intended audience can be inferred from the document's format and content selection—the speaker provides precisely the kind of detailed, concrete evidence parliamentary investigators would require. Distractors are eliminated by: A - absence of mobilizing language or calls to action, B - lack of sentimental or emotional appeals characteristic of philanthropic literature, C - absence of ideological framework or theoretical vocabulary that would interest socialist organizations.
