Answer 1

In Homer's "The Iliad," particularly in the context of the chariot race depicted in Book 23, various aspects of sportsmanship and behavior can be observed. The crowd's disapproval typically centers around behaviors that showcase poor sportsmanship or a lack of respect toward opponents and the rules of the competition.

The crowd would disapprove of actions such as:

• Refusing to shake his opponent's hand after the race: This behavior symbolizes a lack of respect and acknowledgment of the competitor's efforts and is often viewed as unsportsmanlike.

• Yelling at the judge because he doesn't like the results: This demonstrates an inability to accept the outcome of the competition and challenges the authority of those who enforce the rules, which would be frowned upon in any competitive setting.

In contrast, celebrating victories with humility or acknowledging the efforts of competitors would be valued behaviors. Thus, refusing to shake hands or attacking the judge over results are behaviors that would likely draw disapproval from the crowd in the context of ancient athletic competitions.
