Making a Difference — Test

Question 7 • 191 CR ELA 9

Which detail from " Freedom Rider s” indicates the time period in which it takes place?

Answer
A
The narrator is just sixteen, but he’s eager to make a difference in the world around him.
B
The narrator skipped a grade in elementary school, so he is younger than his college classmates.
C
The narrator looks older than his age, and he is worried about his fellow activists finding out the truth.
D
The narrator is an African-American college student who is fighting for the desegregation of buses.

Explanation

The effort to desegregate buses identifies the story with the Civil Rights Movement, especially the Freedom Rides of the early 1960s. The narrator’s age and concerns about his classmates do not indicate a particular historical period. The detail about an African-American college student fighting bus segregation points to that era.
