What two traits does Charles Dickens point out about British society during the Industrial Revolution in this excerpt from Olive

r Twist?
“It's a nasty trade,” said Mr. Limbkins, when Gamfield had again stated his wish.

“Young boys have been smothered in chimneys before now,” said another gentleman.

“That's acause they damped the straw afore they lit it in the chimbley to make 'em come down again,” said Gamfield; “that's all smoke, and no blaze; vereas smoke ain't o' no use at all in making a boy come down, for it only sinds him to sleep, and that's wot he likes. Boys is wery obstinit, and wery lazy, Gen'l'men, and there's nothink like a good hot blaze to make 'em come down vith a run. It's humane too, gen'l'men, acause, even if they've stuck in the chimbley, roasting their feet makes 'em struggle to hextricate theirselves.”

a lack of regard for life among the working class
parish officials' ignorance of the risks apprentices faced
the employment of children for hazardous tasks
the reluctance of young, able-bodied boys to work
the use of parish orphans for raising money for the parish

The best two answers are:<span>parish officials' ignorance of the risks apprentices faced (as can be seen, they thought that using a fire to make the boys move quickly was perfectly reasonable)
the employment of children for hazardous tasks (a difficult and dangerous task like cleaning the chimney was left to the boys)
</span>
<span>a lack of regard for life among the working class - this is not shown much, since the people in the conversation are the elite, not the working class
</span>
<span>the reluctance of young, able-bodied boys to work - this is merely a claim by the parish officials
</span>
<span>the use of parish orphans for raising money for the parish - this is not directly mentioned in the passage, as the orphans are just doing labor, not directly raising money
</span>
