C
Workers were forced to comply with rules through torture and abuse.
D
Workers bought homes and property because they were financially stable.
E
Workers were organized into large communes in cities and countrysides.
F
Workers flourished because they could choose what they did for a living.

Explanation

During the Great Leap Forward, people were organized into large communes, including in rural areas and urban workplaces. Communal living often meant workers lived in dormitories and ate in shared dining rooms rather than with their families. The state enforced commune rules harshly, and workers could face torture and abuse; the claims of rising prosperity and freedom to choose work do not fit this period.
