US writer Margaret Lee Runbeck once wrote, Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of travelling. But 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 color. 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 La Salle 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, which allowed racial segregation(種族隔離).

These laws made life and travel dangerous for African-Americans. They couldn't use certain hotels, restaurants, or even gas stations. They had to be indoors after sunset or they might go to jail. Even black celebrities had to follow the laws.

But in 1936, a black postman named Victor H. Green 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 laws went 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.

1.The story in the movie happened_________in the US.

A.in1936 B.in the early 1960s C.In1964 D.in the late 1870s

2.According to the Jim Crow laws, African-Americans_________.

A.could stay in any hotel they like

B.needn't follow the laws if they are famous people

C.could not hang out with friends at midnight

D.couldn't work with the white people

3.To help African-Americans travel more safely,_________made the Green Book.

A.a black celebrity B.a black pianist

C.a black postman D.an Italian-American driver

4.The film is mainly about_________.

A.a dangerous and terrible trip of a pianist

B.a special friendship between a pianist and a driver

C.how to travel more safely in the southern US

D.a different period in American history
