Answer: A. Russell's sister takes after their mother, but he does not.
In the story, there is no implication of Russell not being obedient. He is so obedient he performs the job he hates everyday because his mother tells him to do so. There is also no sign of Russell's sister wanting to become a writer.
The author mentions that he has learned all of his mother's maxims as well, so that is not a difference between them. The difference is that his sister feels compelled to say them, and means them, because they align with what she thinks. This is because the sister is more similar to their mother than Russell.
I think one characteristic of literature is the narrator and character(s). The narrator is not always the author, but in some cases it can be. The narrator is the person that is recounting and telling the story. This is important and necessary in every story. We also need characters because their actions, thoughts, etc. affect the story and theme and that is what makes up the story. Without characters there is no story.
