There must be a key word/phrase in the answer that can help clarify your ideas further. I would suggest reading the extracts again and making inferences about the question if there is nothing to explicitly go on. I tend to use a Venn diagram to help organise my pupils thoughts on this comparison questions too. Start off slow and then you can work on your timing.
