The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not include the excerpt or the account, so we do not what it says. However, trying to help you we can comment on the following based on our knowledge about the topic.

During the Montgomery Bus Boycott in Montgomery, Alabama, things got ugly. It was a major risk for African Americans to join the protests. Indeed it was expected that black people would join the protests, but nobody really expected white people to join the protests.

Well, one did, and not only protested but also helped the cause. Her name was Sarah Herbert. She lived in Montgomery and decided to drive her car to transport black people. So she treated African Americans fairly in a time when injustice, inequity, and racial segregation were the name of the game for blacks.

The Montgomery Boycott started in December 1955 and ended in December 1956. The protest started after black woman Rosa Parks was arrested for denying her seat to a white person when riding the bus.

which of the following changes led to more americans watching professional sports in the early 1900s​
Margarita [4]

Answer:  

You don't really have any multiple choice, so here's an explanation. The entire reason for early sports was to teach younger generations how to work in a team, so that when they worked in industrial factories and businesses, they had already learned teamwork. Pro sports began to rise in popularity as rivalries between regional areas in the US rose through the progressive era. These rivalries had existed since the antebellum era in America before the civil war. Plus, there weren't many forms of entertainment in the industrial areas, and sports(watching or playing) was a great way to keep individuals off the streets and in a better area. Thus, pro sports popularity rose in the 1900s.
