Read the passage from Charles Dickens’s Hard Times. It contained several large streets all very like one another, and many small streets still more like one another, inhabited by people equally like one another, who all went in and out at the same hours, with the same sound upon the same pavements, to do the same work, and to whom every day was the same as yesterday and tomorrow, and every year the counterpart of the last and the next. In this passage, what is Dickens’s main criticism of industrialization? that it resulted in streets that were not built thoughtfully. that it led to air, land, and water pollution. that it robbed people of their individuality. that it widened the gap between rich and poor.

As a hard critic of industrialization, in this passage Dickens depicts a picture of the society this era inherited to people. His main criticism is that industrialization robbed people their individuality. The possibilities of being different or of being able to expect something surprising were reduced to ashes. From work done in factories to a whole family life, everything was the same every single day.
