Answer:

According to Betty's account, the working condition in the coal pit was harsh because as a drawer, she had to crawl under small mine shafts and dragged loads of coal from the pit. The working condition was not favorable because of slippery shafts, heat, and water that would collect in the mine during a rainstorm.

Women and children frequently were beaten for being slow. Betty speaks about the reality of a coal pit, where they have to suffer hardship to earn a living.

Answer and explanation;

-The conditions in the pit were harsh, and the work was very difficult. Betty worked 12 hour days eating very little food during the day. She had only break during the day. She often went home so tired she would fall asleep before washing up.

-The belt she wore was uncomfortable and she was often going uphill, or working in deep water. Also Betty says that it was common for male workers to beat the drawers, who were mostly women and children. Betty thought the work was very hard for a woman.

The best summary of the development of capitalism and growing scrutiny of the system during the nineteenth century was that the capitalist system prospered by challenging the economic constraints of monopolies, but some residents accused it of creating income disparity.

When capitalism first emerged, people were unaware of its mechanisms; however, as it gained popularity, it became clear how it had impacted the working classes and the elite itself.
