In "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe, the British colonized Africa by converting lower class people and outcasts to Christianity, bought their own form of government ("But apart from the church, the white men had also brought a government.") and even imprisoned men of higher titles for acts that are illegal under British law "... Some of these prisoners had thrown away their twins ..." The British were able to conquer some areas such as Abame, and in Umuofia they had turned the men against each other with their influence. As Obierika says to Okonkwo, "... Now he has won our brothers, and our clan can no longer act like one. He has put a knife on the things that held us together and we have fallen apart.”

Answer:
(2) Bustling.
Explanation:
Colm Toibin's novel "Brooklyn" is about the story of a young woman stuck in between her life in Brooklyn and her hometown in Ireland. The protagonist Eilis Lacey had been married secretly to Tony where she has a job in Brooklyn. But when she had to go to Ireland for the funeral of her sister Rose, she was led to stay longer and even had a brief relationship with a man named Jim. But when her secret marriage was on the verge of being revealed, she decided to tell her mother about Tony, left a letter for Jim and went back to Brooklyn.
The statement that is mentioned in the question<em> "And we are worked off our feet"</em> is from the part where Miss Kelly had called on Eilis to offer her a job in her shop as a bookkeeper. By this implication, Miss Kelly meant that her shop is busy and that they have a lot of customer.
