Answer
A
Jobs often required specialized training.

Twelve-hour workdays were unusual.
C

D
Working conditions were often dangerous.

Explanation

In the late 1800s, many workers labored in factories, mines, and other industrial workplaces with dangerous machinery and few safety protections. Twelve-hour shifts were common, not unusual, and many jobs required little specialized training. Therefore, “Working conditions were often dangerous” is the accurate statement.
