Child labor has been a problem for many years. Over a hundred years ago, Charles Dickens shocked many of his readers when    31  （describe）the conditions under which young children worked in British factories.    32    conditions Dickens described continue, almost unchanged today, in many parts of the world. The only difference is    33    today’s employment of children is confined to small industries and family businesses, such as hotels, restaurants and    34    (particular) farms, rather than to large factories. The children not only receive nothing or very    35   for their long hours of work, but also they    36    (prevent) from attending school. Therefore, when they become older they are    37   (able) to do any other kind of work.

Only    40    this way can young boys and girls be allowed to enjoy the most valuable time of their lives --- childhood.
