Exactly -- comparisons need to compare similar things. An alternative correct answer, had it been an answer choice, could have been "that, because of his experience as a tutor, he had been used as the basis for the protagonist in"

OA is E indeed
but i chose E only because all other options were poorer than that.
and i was bit confused with the additional of extra details...
'basis for events in the life of the protagonist'
so may be we can call it best available option
thanks
