Explanation:

To solve this character - development matching problem from the novel (likely The Westing Game), we analyze each character's growth:

1. Turtle Wexler

• The description "Matures from being mischievous into a successful adult that values relationships and integrity" fits Turtle. She starts off as a bit of a troublemaker but grows up to be someone who understands the importance of relationships and doing the right thing.

2. Angela Wexler

• The phrase "Breaks free from other’s expectations and finds self - worth beyond her appearance" is about Angela. She was under pressure to conform to others' ideas of what she should be (like being a perfect fiancée) and eventually realizes her self - worth isn't just based on how she looks.

3. Flora Baumbach

• "Discovers a renewed sense of purpose and joy by bonding with Turtle" is Flora's story. Her relationship with Turtle gives her a new lease on life and a sense of purpose.

4. (Let's assume the next character, maybe Sydelle Pulaski)

• The description "Becomes more confident and less needy by learning that real connection is more important than sympathy" matches Sydelle. She was desperate for attention and sympathy but learns that true connections with others are more valuable.

5. (Let's assume the last character, maybe Theo Theodorakis)

• "Always focused on helping his family, he learns to pursue his own ambition of being a writer" is Theo. He was very family - oriented but then starts to follow his dream of being a writer.

Answer:

• "Matures from being mischievous into a successful adult that values relationships and integrity" - Turtle Wexler
• "Breaks free from other’s expectations and finds self - worth beyond her appearance" - Angela Wexler
• "Discovers a renewed sense of purpose and joy by bonding with Turtle" - Flora Baumbach
• "Becomes more confident and less needy by learning that real connection is more important than sympathy" - Sydelle Pulaski (assuming this is the missing character)
• "Always focused on helping his family, he learns to pursue his own ambition of being a writer" - Theo Theodorakis (assuming this is the missing character)
