Question
from my story by rosa parks from chapter 8 “you’re under arrest” i don’t think any segregation law angered black people in montgomery more than bus segregation. and that had been so since the laws about segregation on public transportation had been passed. that was back in 1900, and black people had boycotted montgomery streetcars until the city council changed its ordinance so that nobody would be forced to give up a seat unless there was another seat to move to. but over the years practices had changed, although the law had not. when i was put off the bus back in 1943, the bus driver was really acting against the law. in 1945, two years after that incident, the state of alabama passed a law requiring that all bus companies under its jurisdiction enforce segregation. but that law did not spell out what bus drivers were supposed to do in a case like mine. here it was, half a century after the first segregation law, and there were 50,000 african americans in montgomery. more of us rode the buses than caucasians did, because more whites could afford cars. it was very humiliating having to suffer the indignity of riding segregated buses twice a day, five days a week, to go downtown and work for white people. which clue best helps readers know that the first two paragraphs of my story are structured chronologically? the author writes from the first - person point of view. the author includes the years events happened. the author discusses why black people were angry. the author shares information about bus drivers.
Chronological structure relies on time order. The text mentions specific years ("back in 1900," "in 1945," "two years after that"), indicating events are ordered by time. The clue involving years of events best shows this.
