What should I buy to connect my MacBook Pro (13”, M1, 2020) with 24-inch LED Cinema Display?

I have a MacBook Pro (13”, M1, 2020) and also an old 24-inch LED Cinema Display. I still love the Cinema Display so much and have been reading many articles and YouTube videos to see how to connect these two but I’m still very confused. May I seek for your help and advice on what I should buy to connect both please? Sincere thanks!

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.0

if your identification of the display is correct, it has:


a convenient single cable with three connectors (Mini DisplayPort, MagSafe, and USB 2.0)

from:

and therefore the display portion (only) requires an adapter like this one:


Monoprice Select Series USB-C to Mini DisplayPort Adapter - # 24273 - $23.49
