【解析】

這是一篇議論文。禮貌是良好禮儀的表現(xiàn)，但是隨著生活節(jié)奏的加快人們對禮貌似乎有所忘卻，也能夠容忍不禮貌的行為。禮貌用語雖小，但能夠在很多方面影響我們的生活。

【1】該空上句提到，禮儀試圖建立積極的人際關系。F項（禮儀的目的是尊重一個人被愛和被理解的需要）與上句承接自然，且兩句在句式結構上相同。故選F項。

【2】該空下句提到，人們甚至不愿意花時間觀察周圍事物。B項（人們變得更加以自我為中心，更加自戀）與下句聯(lián)系緊密，不愿花時間看周圍是人們以自我為中心的一種表現(xiàn)形式。故選B項。

【3】該空下句提到，人們變得越來越不關心禮儀。A項（隨著科技的進步）在語境上和下句聯(lián)系緊密。且越來越不關心和隨著科學發(fā)展都表現(xiàn)出動作的漸變，在邏輯上也能很好的銜接。故選A項。

【4】該空上句提到，禮貌不僅僅是一個簡單的社會禮儀。G項（它也關乎對他人善良，關愛和尊重）的意思和上句是遞進關系，尤其通過上句的not just 和本句的 also可以看出兩句聯(lián)系緊密。故選G項。

【5】該空下句提到，他們也會尊重你。C項（只要你尊重他人）和下句構成條件狀語從句，且句該主從句的意義符合邏輯關系和文意。故選C項。
