The correct answer is B. Reducing hours will allow people to educate themselves on economy and business so that they may improve labour inequities and depressions.

In "The Plea for Eight Hours" (1890), Powderly makes an argument in favour of the eight-hour workday. The main argument can be found near the end of the text. He argues that if manufacturers and men worked eight hours, they would have time to study the finance and how to solve the problems that apparently force them to work long hours to make profits. With better understanding of business and economy, they would be able to work less hours but with the same profitability.

employing kinesthetic Imagery, describe one of you daily routines.Limit your answer to three to five sentences only​
qwelly [4]

Answer:

My daily routine begins in the morning, just after waking up, when I walk from my room to the kitchen for breakfast consisting of a bowl of cereal and a glass of cold milk. Then I start cleaning all the objects that I held during breakfast and then I do a session of physical exercises, where I move rhythmically for about half an hour. After that moment, I return to my room and turn on my computer, where I will attend the classes available for that day. Next, I'm going to walk my dog for a while, so he can exercise and have some fun. When I get home, I take a hot shower and help my mom finish dinner. At night, I tend not to move around a lot and stay in my room reading, watching or talking with friends. I usually sleep early to get enough energy for the next day.

Explanation:

The above text was written to present kinesthetic Imagery that are mental images, promoted through a descriptive textual language, that promote the sensation of physical movement in the reader, through the reading of movements in a text, which can be highly detailed and with a sensorial source, or more basic and direct.
