问题     In Britain, there were a few very rich people who received money from
land or investments, and did not need to work. They used to have large
amounts of servants to look after them. There were also many middle-class         S1.______
people, who worked as businessmen or as doctors or lawyer. They usually           S2.______
had several servants to clear their houses and cook their meals. But there        S3.______
were also many poor people, there was a big gap between the rich and the          S4.______
poor. The poor had very different lives. Many worked as servants. They
used to be paying little, and they had to work long hours. But at least they      S5.______
lived in a warm house and were well fed. Those who worked in factories
were often less fortunate. They used to work many hours a day, in dangerous
and unhealthy conditions. But, even so, they did not use to earn enough
to feed his families. They often lived in slums which were built cheaply by       S6.______
the factory owners. The worst paid people were those who worked on
the farms. At certain times of the year, they did not use to earn nothing         S7.______
because there was no work for them to do. Life for the poor was not always
bad. There were kind farmers and factory owners which helped their workers.       S8.______
And many people were concerned about the poor. One of them was
Charles Dickens, the famous British writer. When he was young, his family
was always short in money. His father was a clerk, who used to spend more         S9.______
than he earn. When Dickens was eleven, he had to work in a factory.               S10.______
