Answer:
Shylock didn't like Antonio because he had abused him openly in the Rialto, had spoken ill about his business dealings, called him a cut-throat dog, spat on his beard and long Jewish robe. Moreover,Antonio was a Christian and he lent money without any interest and brought down the rate of interest in Venice. So Shylock didn't like Antonio.
Shylock made Antonio to trap in a bond whereby if Antonio is unable to return the amount (3000 ducats) to him within 3 months, then Shylock will have an exact pound of flesh cut from any part of Antonio's body he wishes to have.. Antonio accepted this bond to help his dearest friend Bassanio with the amount so that he can participate in the casket system in Belmont to win Portia.
