Answer
A
a decline in farm employment
B
increased opportunities in factories
C
increased farming opportunities
D
a decline in the demand for wool
E
increased use of machinery

Explanation

Increased use of machinery meant fewer workers were needed on farms, contributing to a decline in farm employment. At the same time, factories offered more jobs, drawing people into towns and cities. Increased farming opportunities would tend to keep people in rural areas, and a decline in wool demand was not a direct cause of urbanization.
