Answer:

A. The workshop was not a pleasant environment for the children.

Explanation:

<u>The given passage is taken from "Iqbal: A Novel" written by Francesco D'Adamo. </u>

The novel is a true story about a thirteen-year-old boy named Iqbal Masih. Iqbal was a slave child in a loom factory where he with other children were treated harshly by their owners.

The setting is Lahore, Pakistan. Iqbal, after arriving at the factory of Hussain Khan, gives hope to other children that they can attain their freedom only if they will not give up.

The passage given describes the working condition of the home factory. Words such as 'filthy curtain', 'chained to their looms' tell us that the environment was dirty and children were usually chained to their looms.

So, the correct answer is the first Option.
