individual sites and apps. YouTube and Facebook continue to dominate the online landscape,

Rosa Louise McCauley Parks (February 4, 1913 October 24, 2005) was an American
activist in the civil rights movement best known for her pivotal role in the Montgomery bus
boycott. The United States Congress has honored her as " the first lady of civil rights " and "
the mother of the freedom movement “.
On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Parks rejected bus driver James F.
Blake's order to vacate a row of four seats in the " colored " section in favor of a White
passenger, once the " white " section was filled. Parks was not the first person to resist bus
segregation, but the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP)
believed that she was the best candidate for seeing through a court challenge after her arrest
for civil disobedience in violating Alabama segregation laws, and she helped inspire the
Black community to boycott the Montgomery buses for over a year. The case became bogged
down in the state courts, but the federal Montgomery bus lawsuit Browder v. Gayle resulted
in a November 1956 decision that bus segregation is unconstitutional under the Equal
Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Parks's act of defiance and the Montgomery bus boycott became important symbols of
the movement. She became an international icon of resistance to racial segregation, and
organized and collaborated with civil rights leaders, including Edgar Nixon and Martin
Luther King Jr. At the time, Parks was employed as a seamstress at a local department store
and was secretary of the Montgomery chapter of the NAACP. She had recently attended the
Highlander Folk School, a Tennessee center for training activists for workers ' rights and
racial equality. Although widely honored in later years, she also suffered for her act; she was
fired from her job, and received death threats for years afterwards. Shortly after the boycott,
she moved to Detroit, where she briefly found similar work. From 1965 to 1988, she served
as secretary and receptionist to John Conyers, an African - American US Representative. She
was also active in the Black Power movement and the support of political prisoners in the
US.
After retirement, Parks wrote her autobiography and continued to insist that there was
more work to be done in the struggle for justice. Parks received national recognition,
including the NAACP's 1979 Spingarn Medal, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the
Congressional Gold Medal, and a posthumous statue in the United States Capitol's National
Statuary Hall . Upon her death in 2005, she was the first woman to lie in honor in the Capitol
Rotunda. California and Missouri commemorate Rosa Parks Day on her birthday, February
4 , while Ohio , Oregon , and Texas commemorate the anniversary of her arrest , December 1.

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela (Nelson Mandela, 8 July 1918-5 December 2013 ) was a
South African anti-apartheid activist who served as the first president of South Africa from
1994 to 1999. He was the country's first black head of state and the first elected in a fully
representative democratic election. His government focused on dismantling the legacy of
apartheid by fostering racial reconciliation. Ideologically an African nationalist and socialist,
he served as the president of the African National Congress (ANC) party from 1991 to 1997.
Mandela was born into the Thembu royal family in Mvezo, Union of South Africa. He
studied law at the University of Fort Hare and the University of Witwatersrand before
working as a lawyer in Johannesburg. There he became involved in anti-colonial and African
nationalist politics, joining the ANC in 1943 and co - founding its Youth League in 1944.
After the National Party's white - only government established apartheid, a system of racial
segregation that privileged whites, Mandela and the ANC committed themselves to its
overthrow. He was appointed president of the ANC's transvaal branch, rising to prominence
for his involvement in the 1952 Defiance Campaign and the 1955 Congress of the people. He
was repeatedly arrested for seditious activities and was unsuccessfully prosecuted in the 1956
Treason Trial. Influenced by Marxism, he secretly joined the banned South African
Communist Party(SACP). Although initially committed he to co-founded nonviolent protest,
in association with the SACP he co-founded the militant Umkhonto we Sizwe in 1961
activities and led a sabotage campaign against government. He was arrested and imprisoned
in 1962, and, following Rivonia Trial, was sentenced to life imprisonment for Conspiring to
overthrow the state.
Mandela served 27 years in prison, split between Robben Island, Pollsmoor Prison
and Victor Verster Prison. Amid growing domestic and international pressure and fears of
racial civil war, President F. W. de Klerk released him in 1990. Mandela and de Klerk led
efforts negotiate an end to apartheid, which resulted in the 1994 multiracial general election
which Mandela led the ANC to victory and became president. Leading a broad coalition
government which promulgated a new constitution, Mandela emphasized reconciliation
between the country's racial groups and to apartheid, which resulted in the 1994 multiracial
general election in which Mandela led the ANC to victory and became president. Leading a
broad coalition government which promulgated a new constitution, Mandela emphasized
reconciliation between the country's racial groups and created the Truth and Reconciliation
Commission to investigate past human rights abuses. Economically, his administration
retained its predecessor's liberal framework despite his own socialist beliefs, also introducing
measures to encourage land reform, combat poverty and expand healthcare services.
Internationally, Mandela acted as mediator in the Pan Am Flight 103 bombing trial and
served as secretary- general of the Non-Aligned Movement from 1998 to 1999. He declined a
second presidential term and was succeeded by his deputy, Thabo Mbeki. Mandela became
an elder statesman and focused on combating poverty and HIV/AIDS through the charitable
Nelson Mandela Foundation.
Mandela was a controversial figure for much of his life. Although critics on the right
denounced him as a communist terrorist and those on the far-left deemed him too eager to
negotiate and reconcile with apartheid's supporters, he gained international acclaim for his
activism. Globally regarded as an icon of democracy and social justice, he received more than
250 honors, including the Nobel Peace Prize. He is held in deep respect within South Africa,
where he is often referred to by his Thembu clan name, Madiba, and described as the “Father
of the nation”

In the 1930s, Chester F. Carlson was working in the patents department of a large
electronics firm in New York City. One of the major problems in his work was the length of
time and expense involved in getting patent copied, patents were lengthy legal document, and
the only ways to get them copied were to take them to a typist or to take them to a
photographer. Either way of copying patents took a lot of time and cost a lot of money. He
came up with the idea for a machine that would copy documents quickly and efficiently.
He researched the idea in the library and then worked over a three-year period on
developing a machine that used a light, an electro statically charged plate, and powder to
duplicate images on paper. The result of this work was a machine that produced the first
xerographic copy on October 22, 1938. He named the process "Xerox, which means "dry
writing" Carlson felt that he had a good idea, one that would be extremely helpful in the
business world. He tried to sell his idea to a number of large corporations, but they were not
terribly interested in his machine. A few years later he sold the process to a small family-
owned company. This small company grew into the giant Xerox Corporation, and both
Carlson and Xerox became rather wealthy in the process.

Climate change is not just bad for the planet and for our bodies. According to a new
report, climate change had for our health too. The report is not the first to tackle climate
change from a health perspective. Earlier this year a Consortium on Climate and Health
issued a report detailing the many ways is its narrow to focus on mental health.
The report breaks up the mental health impacts into two broad buckets: acute impacts
such as those climate change can negatively impact human health and well-being. What
makes this new report unique discrete climate related shocks (like fires, floods, and storms)
and chronic impacts, or the more gradual ways that climate change can impact our well-
being.
It is important that we recognize that up to forty percent of people who live through a
disaster experience some kind of psychopathology. This includes anxiety, depression, mood
disorders, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
According to the report, one in six people who lived in areas affected by Hurricane
Katrina met the criteria for PTSD. Similarly, suicide and suicidal ideation more than doubled
in those regions, and 49 percent of people developed an anxiety or mood disorder like
depression.
The issue is not just disaster itself- most of us can cope with a single source of stress.
But in disaster situations, stressors multiply rapidly. You may have lost not just your home,
but your job, and perhaps even the broader community that you ordinarily relied on for
support. And under climate change scenarios, it could mean that you are extirpated from your
home permanently.
Chronic effects are harder to envision, but no less dangerous. As the climate continues
to change, for example, many locations will be warmer for longer portions of the year anyone
who has experienced this usually warm winter knows this firsthand. But if the weather gets to
sticky, we tend to retreat indoors, making it harder (even in this digital age) to build and
maintain much needed social networks. Similarly, as temperatures soar, studies suggest our
tempers do as well, which can further threaten community cohesiveness.

5. What is the best title of the passage ….

A. mental health
B. people can overcome a single stressor
C. the higher temperature, the better the temper
D. people can rely on their community
E. social networks will be well-maintained
