David Copperfield's characters?

Question

I have a major problem. But it is partially solvable.

My freshman year, I had a summer reading assignment with a dreadful book, but I read through the whole thing. Then when I took the test on it, it was disgustingly easy.

So I thought I'll just go to spark notes and cliff notes for David Copperfield for sophomore year. Then I went to English class, and the teacher is one of the toughest in school. So I regret my actions.

I have a quotes exam on the 19th, which is 4 days from now. In this exam, he will give a number of dialogues, and I have to identify the speaker.

So if you can, please please please just tell me how I would identify what character it is or how they speak. The quiz can ask about any character, so anyone who talks is fair game.

Thanks a lot!!!
