Answer

“I felt like a dog.”
B
“I realized I was a human being.”

“just as intelligent and far more trained than that bus driver was”
D
“He wanted to hurt me, and he did.”
E
“I cried all the way to Cleveland.”

Explanation

The details “I felt like a dog,” “He wanted to hurt me, and he did,” and “I cried all the way to Cleveland” directly show the humiliation and emotional pain Robinson experienced because of segregation. Together, they develop the idea that segregation was harmful. The statements about recognizing her humanity and being more trained than the driver focus on her worth and abilities rather than directly describing the harm.
