Read the paragraph. Before the Industrial Revolution, most goods were made by hand, in peoples's homes. Workers would buy raw
materials and complete each step in the process to make a finished product. Manufacturing by hand took a
long time, and therefore, the prices for finished goods was high. Industrialization changed all that. Machines
took over the manufacturing process. These machines were much more efficient than workers creating items
by hand. This meant that many more items could be produced, drastically reducing their price, and making
them more affordable for consumers.
