    Default change positions

    Hi, teachers.
    Again, I wonder if all of these sentences below are grammatically correct.
    1、The life of a Victorian factory worker wasn't easy.
    2、Of a Victorian factory worker, the life wasn't easy.
    3、Life for a Victorian factory worker wasn't easy.
    4、For a Victorian factory worker, life wasn't easy.
    5、Life in those days wasn't easy.
    6、In those days, life wasn't easy.
    7、Life of a Victorian factory worker wasn't easy.
    8、Of a Victorian factory worker, life wasn't easy.

    I’d appreciate some help. Please.

    7、Life of a Victorian factory worker wasn't easy. Use 1.
    8、Of a Victorian factory worker, life wasn't easy.

    The others are okay.
