Solution

The correct options are
C Formation of and increase in slums
D Use of child labour
While the Industrial Revolution led to an increase in goods production and trade, it did have some negative effects. Migrants who came to cities were forced live in slums which were cramped and lacked sanitation. Also, there was widespread employment of children which was later stopped when workers campaigned for their rights.
