The industrial revolution was truly revolutionary. It affected society in ways that nothing else had in the past. The industrial revolution allowed many goods to be manufactured faster and more efficiently than ever. The revolution also revolutionized the system of labor around factories. The industrial revolution advanced society and the economy in ways that were never imagined. Although it affected society in a positive way it also affected society in a negative way. The negative way being that it caused lots of environmental problems ranging from pollution to the depletion of natural resources. This all happened due to the increased amount of coal in factories.

I made this paragraph, but you can add some things from the right answer.
The Industrial Revolution affected society in many different ways. It affects society in positive and negative ways. For example, education increased and as a result, health care increased too and people began to live longer. Goods were manufactured faster and more efficiently than before. This Revolution also revolutionized the system of labor in factories. In 1833 Parliament created a new Factory Act, that didn't allow children under nine to work and also gave power to people in the factory to enforce the law. There were major inventions like the Railroads, they facilitated international trade and allowed people to sell what they had. But just as it had positive effects, it also had negative effects. Factories polluted the air and water. Workers had to work long hours and often through the night in poor conditions. Due to poor sanitation and poor hygiene practices, diseases became to spread and people started to get sick.
When the public found out about the XYZ affair, many grew angry at foreign attempts to influence their government. They became more suspicious of aliens—residents who are not citizens. Many Europeans who had come to the United States in the 1790s supported the ideals of the French Revolution.
