A．they had to stay with the father who had to go everywhere to find a job in depression
B．the father could find better-paid jobs in the prosperity of economy
C．the father wanted to be near with his own home

网考网参考答案：B
网考网解析：
文章第一段第三行有这样一句话“Arthur's job as a miner had taken them where the best-paid work had been during the boom years of the 1870s．”它是说，在19世纪80年代的经济繁荣时期，Arthur不停换地方工作是因为他在不停的寻找待遇最好的地方工作，由于他换地方工作，整个家庭也就跟着他不停搬迁。A也是说要跟随Arthur到处找工作，但是最后是说在经济萧条时期，与原文不符，所以B最符合文章原意。 查看试题解析出处>>
