Read the excerpt from Mark Twain's essay "The Art of Inhumation." About the same time, I encountered a man in the street, whom I

had not seen for six or seven years; and something like this talk followed. I said,-- "But you used to look sad and oldish; you don't now. Where did you got all this youth and bubbling cheerfulness? Give me the address." He chuckled blithely, took off his shining tile, pointed to a notched pink circlet of paper pasted into its crown, with something lettered on it, and went on chuckling while I read, "J. B-, UNDERTAKER." Then he clapped his hat on, gave it an irreverent tilt to leeward, and cried out,-- "That's what's the matter! It used to be rough times with me when you knew me--insurance-agency business, you know; mighty irregular. Big fire, all right--brisk trade for ten days while people scared; after that, dull policy-business till next fire. Town like this don't have fires often enough--a fellow strikes so many dull weeks in a row that he gets discouraged. But you bet you, this is the business! People don't wait for examples to die. No, sir, they drop off right along,--there ain't any dull spots in the undertaker line. I just started in with two or three little old coffins and a hired hearse, and now look at the thing! Based on this excerpt, which best describes this type of nonfiction?
a)humorous essay
b) essay of ideas
c)autobiography
d)biography

Dirty work. the creeping rollback of child labor law arguments essay
timama [110]

Child labor was commonly used in the first industrial revolution. The laborers, at that time, needed to work many hours nonstop. Even so, it was not enough, and these workers made their children work too so the family could sustain itself.

Of course, the abuses committed by those employers were stopped, and many laws were made to prevent them. One of these laws was the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).

FLSA is a law that creates limits to child labor, it also forbids this type of work in some circumstances. Under sixteen years old, children have several restrictions to be allowed to work,  and under eighteen years old they had fewer restrictions, but could not exercise what everything an adult could, for example, work in a hazardous environment. However, agricultural work was not included in the FLSA, <u>and a good lot of the children worked in this job which was not limited and child labor could inadvertently be used.</u>

Even with FLSA, child labor continues to exist illegally, and its horrors continue to prevent children from having a decent childhood. That is, the youth protection must leave the law papers and assure effectively the childhood safety.

<u>This protection is extremely important, and the rollback of child labor must be avoided when hazardous to their healthy growth – both body and mind.</u>
