Solution

  1. I support the archer because he was a skilled archer and performed wonderful feats of archery. He could hit the center of the target precisely, no matter how far the target was. He was also a show-off. He liked to show his skills for the crowds to admire.
  2. I support the old man because he was not a show-off like Uthaman. He was humble and cool. He was a simple oil seller. Over the years, he had achieved some skill in filling the gourds. Even though Uthaman was angry with him, the old man patiently answered him. He was a simple and humble person.
