Read this paragraph from Passage 1.

Boxing may not be as brutal a sport as some others, but in ancient times,
the rules were much more lenient. In the ancient Olympics, boxers were not
classified by weight as they are today; any weight-enormous or
diminutive—could compete with one another, and it was considered a fair
fight even though there could be significant weight differences.

Why did the author include this paragraph?

A

C
to infer that the ancient Olympic games were unusual
D
to explain that the fighters were often dragged to their deaths

Cetacea

Boxing did not have stringent rules. The men and the boys were selected at random. It is not conducted in the form of rounds. So, the paragraph shows what has changed in the competition and regulation.

To identify the changes in boxing during the ancient and modern times, there are certain aspects:

  • Boxing is a risky sport. As days progressed, people regarded the safety of the boxers.
  • Even if the boxer is skilled but does not have enough weight as the opponent, it might become a disadvantage.
  • The main aspect to bring in the change is to avoid disparity.

Thus, the modification of rules has brought changes in boxing from ancient to modern times.
