Which statements describe how antinous is portrayed in this excerpt from book 21 of the odyssey?
antinous saw, and said:
"hence to your fields, ye rustics! hence away,
nor stain with grief the pleasures of the day;
nor to the royal heart recall in vain
the sad remembrance of a perish'd man.
enough her precious tears already flow—
or share the feast with due respect; or go
to weep abroad, and leave to us the bow,
no vulgar task! ill suits this courtly crew
that stubborn horn which brave ulysses drew.
i well remember (for i gazed him o'er
while yet a child), what majesty he bore!
and still (all infant as i was) retain
the port, the strength, the grandeur of the man."
he said, but in his soul fond joys arise,
and his proud hopes already win the prize.
to speed the flying shaft through every ring,
wretch! is not thine: the arrows of the king
shall end those hopes, and fate is on the wing!
he is deceitful and unfaithful to ulysses.
he is trustworthy and loyal to ulysses.
he wants to win the contest and take the place of ulysses.
he wants to win the contest to win penelope’s heart.
he mocks ulysses's bravery and strength.

The greatest gift the sumerians gave the world was the invention of writing. the sumerians were a wealthy people. they needed some way to keep track of what they owned. they began drawing pictures. they used a reed as a pen. they drew on soft pieces of clay. the soft clay was then dried in the sun. the tablet became a permanent record. later, the sumerian drawings changed into wedge-shaped symbols. this kind of writing is called cuneiform. by putting symbols together, the sumerians could write entire sentences.
