Passage D
On December 1,1955,Rosa Parks was planning to take the bus home from work as usual.She had just finished working as a seamstress(女裁缝)at a department store and then walked to the bus stop.As she first boarded the bus,she noticed that the driver was the same man who had sent her off his bus years earlier because she would not go around to the back door after she was already on the bus.She decided to get on anyway and sit down,but she did not sit at the very front of the bus.She took a seat next to a black man in the first row that“colored”people were allowed to sit in.At the next stop,some white people got on the bus.After they filled up the white seats,one man was left standing.When the driver noticed him standing,he told Rosa and the others in her row to let the man have a seat.Three people stood up,but the driver saw that Rosa was still sitting there.He asked if she would stand up,and she refused.Then he told her he would have her arrested,and Rosa told him he could do that.
A few minutes later,two policemen got on the bus.When the driver told them that Rosa would not stand up,the policemen walked over to her and asked her why she wouldn’t get up.Rosa said she didn’t think she should stand up and asked,“Why do you push us around?”One policeman answered,“I don’t know,but the law is the law,and you are under arrest.”As soon as he said that,Rosa stood up.Then one of the policemen picked up her purse while the other picked up her shopping bag,and the three left the bus.Finally,they took Rosa to the police station in the car.
Rosa’s action that day started a citywide boycott(联合抵制)of the bus system by Blacks that lasted more than a year.This later resulted in the decision against segregation on city buses in the US.

Passage C
One evening after dinner,Mr.and Mrs.William called a family meeting.“We’ve had to make a difficult decision.”Mr.William announced.“You see,your mother has been offered a post as co-director of a television in Chicago.Unluckily,the station is not here.After thinking long and hard about it,we’ve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”
Peter looked shocked,while his sister Amy breathlessly started asking when they’d be moving:“It’s surprising,but exciting!”she said.Peter simply said,“We can’t go—I can’t leave all my friends.I’d rather stay here and live with Tommy!”
Mr.and Mrs.William hoped that by the time they moved in August,Peter would grow more accustomed to the idea of leaving.However,he showed no signs of accepting the news,refusing to pack his belongings.
When the morning of the move arrived,Peter was nowhere to be found.His parents called Tommy’s house,but Tommy’s mother said she hadn’t seen Peter.Mrs.William became increasingly worried,while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly.
What they didn’t know was that Peter had started walking over to Tommy’s house,with a faint idea of hiding in Tommy’s attic（阁楼）for a few days.But something happened on the way as Peter walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood:the fence that he and his mother painted,the tree that he and his sister used to climb,the park where he and his father often took evening walks together.How much would these mean without his family,who make them special in the first place?Peter didn’t take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house,wondering if there were any moving cartons（纸板箱）the right size to hold his record collection.
