Question

Choose 5 characters form the novel and create a T chart listing the normal aspects of the character and the differences. Find page references for each attribute.

(please explain 'aspect' in this sentence, or replace it with a common synonym.)

Answer 1

Attributes of the character?

Answer 2

I think "normal" is also a terrible choice of words (unless there is at least one "mentally impaired" character, such as Benjy in Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury). I would rephrase this part of the sentence as follows:

"[...] listing each one's individual traits [...]"
