Migration to the city among villagers is caused by
A
attraction of the city
B
low productivity in the village
C
inadequate job opportunities in the village
D
shortage of land for cultivation
Verified Correct Answer: C.
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
The passage clearly states that villagers migrate to the cities because there is little or no work in rural areas. For example:
“Their work opportunities are so limited that they cannot work their way out of their situation.”
“There is no hope for them in the rural areas and so, they drift into the big cities.”
“Rural unemployment then produces mass migration into cities.”
These statements show that lack of employment opportunities in the villages is the main reason for migration.
