Answer: B) established a rhythm and required cooperation.

Their social circle was reduced to the people they worked with, and their hobbies were those that did not take them away from their work. Call-and-response songs were the perfect distraction and enjoyment for their difficult lives.

Moreover, the fact that they required cooperation contributed to their sense of community.
