【解析】

试题分析：本文介绍了在1955年的美国，非裔美国人只能坐在公交车的后面，前四排是白人专座。一位名叫罗莎帕克斯的非裔美国人，因坐在白人专座没有给白人让座，受到了罚款，而且还失去了工作。但是在今天12月1日是一个叫作罗莎帕克斯的节日。他们庆祝她的行为和勇气。

【1】be allowed to do sth“被允许做某事”，此处表示被动关系，故此处用过去分词allowed。句意：在1955年在Montgomery, Alabama只有白人被允许坐在公交车的前四排。

【2】根据only white people were 31 to sit in the first four rows of public buses. 可知只有白人可以坐在前面，因此非裔美国人这些黑人要坐在后面，故为back。句意：非裔美国人不得不使用公交车朝后的座位。

【3】此处修饰someone的定语从句缺少主语，应为who。句意：如果非裔美国人坐在白人区域，他或她将被驱逐。

【4】结合句意，此处主语an African-American named Rosa Parks与谓语sit之间是主动关系，根据was可知此处用现在分词sitting。句意：一天，一个名叫罗莎帕克斯的非裔美国人坐在“白人专座”的区域。

【5】根据some white people needed a seat,可知有人需要座位，因此公交车非常拥挤，作为系动词was的表语，应用形容词，故此处为crowded。句意：公交车非常拥挤，有些白人需要座位。

【6】give up “放弃”，故此处为up。句意：所以司机让罗莎帕克斯放弃她的座位。

【7】根据after a long day working in a store 可知她工作了一整天，因此她感到累了，因此为tired。句意：她在商店里工作一整天后，她感到累了。

【8】动词sit后面接坐的地点，此处为地点副词anywhere。句意：她认为她理应有权利坐在她想坐的任何地方。

【9】根据For that, she was arrested (逮捕). She was tried for just 30 minutes and fined (罚款) $10—a lot of money in those days.可知因为不把座位让给白人带来了不好的结果，故此处应是失去工作，故为lost。句意：因为那件事她失去了她的工作。

【10】根据Rosa Parks is celebrated for her action and bravery.可知人们庆祝罗莎帕克斯的行为和勇气，这应是一个节日，故此处为holiday。句意：今天，在美国，12月1日是一个被称作罗莎帕克斯的节日。
