Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run". Now you take Cynthia Procter for instance. She’s just the opposite. If there’s a test tomorrow, she’ll say something like, “Oh, I guess I’ll play handball this afternoon and watch television tonight,” just to let you know she ain’t thinking about the test. Or like last week when she won the spelling bee for the millionth time, “A good thing you got ‘receive,’ Squeaky, cause I would have got it wrong. I completely forgot about the spelling bee.” And she’ll clutch the lace on her blouse like it was a narrow escape. "Oh, brother."

How does the author develop Squeaky's viewpoint in this excerpt?

Question 4 options:

by showing that Squeaky resents Cynthia for her superior spelling skills.

by explaining that Squeaky disapproves of people who pretend to be something they are not

by revealing that Squeaky envies people like Cynthia for whom everything comes easily

by showing that Squeaky feels proud that she does not have to study as much as other kids
