ok, i am totally guessing and basing my answers on other peoples because i havnt read this since grade 9 (1999)

(4 adjectives to describe her): brave, thoughtful, stubborn, innocent

Lover of: Atticus, Dill, equality

Who feels: pain, wonder, and confusion

Who needs: love, understanding, truth

Who gives: bruises, a sense of innocence, a childlike perspective towards injustice

Who fears: Boo, unjust punishment, the world's ignorance towards human beings (reality)

Who would like to see: justice, equality, truth

Who said (i forget so i'm taking someone elses): "Well, it'd be sort of like shootin' a mockingbird, wouldn't it?"
