Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.
ETIQUETTE
In sixteenth-century Italy and eighteenth-century France, waning prosperity and increasing social unrest led the ruling families to try to preserve their superiority by withdrawing from the lower and middle classes behind barriers of etiquette. In a prosperous community, on the other hand, polite society soon absorbs the newly rich, and in England there has never been any shortage of books on etiquette for teaching them the manners appropriate to their new way of life.
Every code of etiquette has contained three elements: basic moral duties; practical rules which promote efficiency; and artificial, optional graces such as formal compliments to, say, women on their beauty or superiors on their generosity and importance.
In the first category are consideration for the weak and respect for age. Among the ancient Egyptians the young always stood in the presence of older people. Among the Mponguwe of Tanzania, the young men bow as they pass the huts of the elders. In England, until about a century ago, young children did not sit in their parents' presence without asking permission.
Practical rules are helpful in such ordinary occurrences of social life as making proper introductions at parties or other functions so that people can be brought to know each other. Before the invention of the fork, etiquette directed that the fingers should be kept as clean as possible; before the handkerchief came into common use, etiquette suggested that, after spitting, a person should rub the spit inconspicuously underfoot.
Extremely refined behaviour, however, cultivated as an art of gracious living, has been characteristic only of societies with wealth and leisure, which admitted women as the social equals of men. After the fall of Rome, the first European society to regulate behaviour in private life in accordance with a complicated code of etiquette was twelfthcentury Provence, in France.
Provence had become wealthy. The lords had returned to their castles from the crusades, and there the ideals of chivalry grew up, which emphasized the virtue and gentleness of women and demanded that a knight should profess a pure and dedicated love to a lady who would be his inspiration, and to whom he would dedicate his valiant deeds, though he would never come physically close to her. This was the introduction of the concept of romantic love, which was to influence literature for many hundreds of years and which still lives on in a debased form in simple popular songs and cheap novels today.
In Renaissance Italy too, in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, a wealthy and leisured society developed an extremely complex code of manners, but the rules of behaviour of fashionable society had little influence on the daily life of the lower classes. Indeed many of the rules, such as how to enter a banquet room, or how to use a sword or handkerchief for ceremonial purposes, were irrelevant to the way of life of the average working man, who spent most of his life outdoors or in his own poor hut and most probably did not have a handkerchief, certainly not a sword, to his name.
Yet the essential basis of all good manners does not vary. Consideration for the old and weak and the avoidance of harming or giving unnecessary offence to others is a feature of all societies everywhere and at all levels from the highest to the lowest. You can easily think of dozens of examples of customs and habits in your own daily life which come under this heading.

You are going to read a magazine article about the sport of horse racing. Six sentences have been removed from the article. Choose from the sentences A-G the one which fits each gap. Number (0) has been done for you.
HORSE RACING
One of the most popular spectator sports in England is horse racing. There are racecourses in all parts of the country and on most days of the year, there will be two or three race meetings taking place. (0)...D…
There are basically two types of horse racing - jump racing and flat racing. As the names suggest, in jump racing, the horses have to jump over fences whilst in flat racing, they simply have to run as fast as possible along a flat track. (71)………….. It might be thought that jump racing would be considered the more important type of racing as horses not only have to run but also have to jump. In fact, the reserve is true, as flat racing is considered to be superior. (72)…………...
Unfortunately, but inevitably, racing is a dangerous sport for the jockeys who ride the horses. Jockeys in jump races risk injuries not only from hitting the ground if they fall off their horse but also from being hit by other horses if they fall at a fence. (73)…………...
Jockeys love to ride but, as most of them do not earn a great deal, they also need the money they make from racing. (74)…………... Gee Armitage, one of the relatively few
women jockeys, is one who had a very serious fall some time ago and spent months in considerable pain. (75)…………...
In spite of all her suffering, she was absolutely determined to return to the sport which she loved, although her friends and family wished that she would simply give it up. Gee says: “Racing is something you just can't give up. For a lot of us, there are many more bad days than good days, but the good days are so good that they make up for the rest.”
(How to Pass FCE - Exam practice inMissing sentences:
A. As their passion for riding is so great, they do not worry greatly about how much money they make from the sport.
B. “Jockeys are paid for every time they ride,” said a race course doctor. “If I tell an injured jockey that he cannot ride in the following race, he loses money.”
C. Flat races take place in the summer months and are generally run over shorter distances than jump races. The emphasis is totally on speed.
D. Although many people go to race meetings to bet money on which horses will win, others go to see the horses or simply because they enjoy the lively and exciting atmosphere.
E. Even though jockeys are well aware of the dangers involved, they are usually keen to return to racing as soon as possible, even when their injuries have been very painful and serious.
F. In spite of this, the most famous horse race in Britain is a jump race called the Grand National. This takes place at Aintree in Liverpool every spring and attracts people from all over the world.
G. She had been riding in a race at Huntingdon and her horse had been jumping perfectly but then fell badly at the next-to-last fence. Gee managed to get up and walk to the ambulance but was taken straight to hospital where she stayed for the next month.
