This excerpt is from a doctor's testimony to an 1819 British parliamentary committee. When I was a surgeon in the infirmary, accidents were very often admitted to the infirmary, through the children's hands and arms having being caught in the machinery; in many instances the muscles, and the skin is stripped down to the bone, and in some instances a finger or two might be lost. Which statement best summarizes what the doctor is saying about child factory workers? O They need to learn safety rules. Their injuries are untreatable. Their injuries are quite minor. O They are doing dangerous work.
