Both are the correct answers. China has many geographic and natural barriers that kept it isolated for many years. For instance, the Himalayas, the Yellow River, and the Gobi Desert. It is also true that China's civilization is the oldest continuous civilization in the world. Ancient civilizations such as Summer, ancient Egypt of the Indus Valley civilization ended a long time ago.

Explanation:
Answer: The poor who were living in awful conditions in New York City slums in the late 1800s.
Details:
Jacob Riis was a police reporter in New York. In 1888, Riis took pictures of what life was like in city's slums. Using his own photos as well as photos gathered from other photographers, Riis began to give lectures titled, "The Other Half: How It Lives and Dies in New York," in which he would show the pictures on a projection screen and describe for viewers what the situations were like. He gave his lectures in New York City churches. In 1989, a magazine article by Riis (based on his lectures) was published in Scribner's Magazine. The book version was then published in 1890 as How the Other Half Lives: Studies among the Tenements of New York.
Riis blamed the poor living conditions on greed and neglect from society's wealthier classes, and called on society to remedy the situation as a moral obligation.
