The answer to the given question above would be option B. The main reason as to why Victorian authors write socially conscious works is that they have witnessed the effect of industrialization on the lower classes. In industrialization, what happens is that the country's industry is being developed, making it hard for the lower class to catch up for the costs of the products.
