The kind of work would a 13-year-old colonial farm child be expected to do was to fetch water, feed the animals, and chop wood for the fireplace.

The life on the farm was not easy. Families had to work hard to support their father. Farmers were poor people and most of the time they were working.

Children fetched water, for watering the animals and feed them. They collected the eggs and milked the cows. They also collected fruit and vegetables. The boys helped their father with some errands. The girls helped the mother sweeping, sewing, and cooking.

The other options of the question were b) help the mother with simple household chores and tend the younger children, c) clean his or her sleeping area and keep toys picked up, and d) work alongside, doing the same tasks as the parent of the same gender.

        i'm fairly sure that the correct answers are 2 and 3.

        i used both my knowledge of world history and the process of elimination to obtain these answers. option 1 cannot be a possible selection because the mandate of heaven belongs to ancient chinese philosophical belief. option 4 sounds like it would benefit the region than detriment it. however, both 2 and 3 explain a potential reason for what could have contributed to the fall of the roman empire.

      hope this ! if i were you, i'd get a second opinion, because i haven't taken this course for a year. best of luck!
