Travelling is not always happy, at least for the buddies in the movie Green Book. The popular film won Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards on Feb. 25.
The movie was adapted from the true story of a road trip through the southern US in the early 1960s. In the film, the black pianist Don Shirley hires Italian- American Tony Vallelonga to drive him to performances, but they face problems because of Shirley's skin colour. These problems lead them to form a special friendship.
"There's something so deeply right about this movie, so true to the time," wrote US film critic Mick LaSalle. The time LaSalle is talking about was between late 1870s and 1960s, a very different period in US history. Many parts of the country had Jim Crow Laws (《吉姆·克劳法》) , which allowed racial segregation (种族隔离) . These laws made life and travel ____ for African- Americans. They couldn't use certain hotels, restaurants, or even gas stations. They had to be indoors after sunset or they might be put into prison. Even black celebrities (名人) had to follow the laws.
But in 1936, a black mail carrier named Victor H. Green had an idea. He made a list of friendly businesses in New York City. He published the list as a small book with a green cover. The Green Book helped African- Americans travel more safely. Then, in 1964, Jim Crow Lawswent away. The book went away, too.
Today many US people still remember the time of Jim Crow. But they probably don't know about the Green Book. It's a forgotten part of the story. Thanks to this movie, maybe people can remember it again.

It's my second week at junior high. Today is Friday—the best day of the week!
My {#blank#}1{#/blank#} class on Fridays is history and I love it. We are {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the old history of China. I think it's very {#blank#}3{#/blank#} , so I often read the textbook carefully. Now I can remember many facts in the textbook {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. The second class is maths. We have five maths lessons every week. Maths is easy in primary school, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} I think it's a little difficult at junior high. I should spend more time on {#blank#}6{#/blank#}. After maths, we have English.
We have a reading project. The class is very quiet, because all the students are doing{#blank#}7{#/blank#} projects carefully. We also have a PE class. I'm {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the football team of our class. We play football in the playground.
Many of {#blank#}9{#/blank#} think Friday afternoons are great. Do you know why? That's because we can{#blank#}10{#/blank#} our favourite classes. I enjoy my school life very much and I hope I can do better in my study.
