Answer:

C. complex road systems.

Explanation:

There are some definitions related to the word civilization. In general terms these mainly relates to the inhabitants of a region/location and how they sustain themselves as an organized society.  The Latin word “civilis” refers to one who resides in a town.

Therefore, for an organized society to exist there is need for the inhabitants:

City:

to reside and share a common geographical region, favorable for their permanence, stability of its inhabitants, provides some form of defense and protection from enemies. Such a city should have planned entry points, road networks, office or palace of the ruler, open congregational spaces for religious worship and trading/ commerce and monuments. The most prized locations are hierarchically distributed in favor of the residence of the ruler and his or her court, the priests, chiefs and finally the houses of the inhabitants.

Religion:

A  religion common to the majority of its inhabitants that, encompasses the beliefs and thought-principles of the people and executed by a hierarchical body comprised of priests and chief priests who are believed to have influence over the decisions taken by the government or ruling body and its people.

Economic activity:

An economic activity for self-sustenance in line with the needs of the people and inhabitants.  For example farming and agriculture, trading and commerce etc.  There is normally a hierarchical social structure whereby certain groups in the society are known to provide/work in different types of economic activities.

Road systems are a part of the city or town planning however it may not be complex in nature.

Other examples of characteristics of a civilization:

  1. cities.
  2. government.
  3. religion.
  4. social-structure.
  5. art and architecture.
  6. form of writing and communication.

Need help, it’s about child labor
zvonat [6]

Answer:

What is child labour

Not all work done by children should be classified as child labour that is to be targeted for elimination. The participation of children or adolescents above the minimum age for admission to employment in work that does not affect their health and personal development or interfere with their schooling, is generally regarded as being something positive. This includes activities such as assisting in a family business or earning pocket money outside school hours and during school holidays. These kinds of activities contribute to children’s development and to the welfare of their families; they provide them with skills and experience, and help to prepare them to be productive members of society during their adult life.

The term “child labour” is often defined as work that deprives children of their childhood, their potential and their dignity, and that is harmful to physical and mental development. It refers to work that:

is mentally, physically, socially or morally dangerous and harmful to children; and/or

interferes with their schooling by: depriving them of the opportunity to attend school; obliging them to leave school prematurely; or requiring them to attempt to combine school attendance with excessively long and heavy work.

Whether or not particular forms of “work” can be called “child labour” depends on the child’s age, the type and hours of work performed, the conditions under which it is performed and the objectives pursued by individual countries. The answer varies from country to country, as well as among sectors within countries.

The worst forms of child labour

The worst forms of child labour involves children being enslaved, separated from their families, exposed to serious hazards and illnesses and/or left to fend for themselves on the streets of large cities – often at a very early age.
