Read the excerpt from "Lewis Hine Helps a Nation See the Light." Once inside a factory, Hine quickly got to work photographing c

hildren. He also talked to them, using a small notebook to record as much information as possible about their working conditions, education, and ages. He even measured the children's height by using the buttons of his coat. One example from his notebook reads, "Furman Owens, twelve years old. Can't read. Doesn't know his ABC's. Said, 'Yes I want to learn, but can't when I work all the time.'" Which statement gives a historical detail that can clarify a reader's understanding of the excerpt? Children lost all interest in going to school because they were making so much money working. Children did not get the chance to go to school because they had to work every day from morning to evening. Children did not have to go to school because they were being taught at home by their parents. Children decided not to go to school because they had so much fun during their free time.

The correct answer is:

Children did not get the chance to go to school because they had to work every day from morning to evening.

Lewis Wickes Hine (1874 – 1940) was an American sociologist and photographer who worked for the National Child Labor Committee (NCLC), documenting child labor, especially in the Carolina Piedmont, to support the NCLC's lobbying work to end that practice. In 1913, Wickes documented child workers in the cotton mill industry with Francis Galton.
