Read the following passage, then answer the question.John Rockefeller might get his oil cheaper now and then, they said, but he

could not do it often. He might make close contracts for which they had neither the patience nor the stomach. He might have an unusual mechanical and practical genius in his partner. But these things could not explain all. They believed they bought, on the whole, almost as cheaply as he, and they knew they made as good oil and with as great, or nearly as great, economy. He could sell at no better price than they. Where was his advantage

Answer:

He has to enhance quality of its product.

Explanation:

He has no close contracts with shopkeeper in order to sell his product. His oil has low quality which is the main reason for not selling his oil. For making profit, he has to enhance the quality of oil as well as having close contracts with shopkeeper so that the oil will be sold at high price and make more profit. He should have patience and use his brain in order to make good profit and gain advantage from these ideas.

How does the shift in the physical description of the landlady throughout the passage impact he storys meaning?
ira [324]

Answer:

Throughout the passage, the shift in the physical description of the landlady does impact the story's meaning. At first, when you hear what the landlady looks like, you'll think that she's not at all "wrong in the head", but as you progress through the story, the landlady morphs into a detrimental woman. When Billy sees the landlady at the start, he thinks that she " looked exactly like the mother of one’s best school-friend welcoming one into the house to stay for the Christmas holidays (29)". He basically thinks that she's just a kind woman who won't do him any harm. Later, "he caught a whiff of a peculiar smell that seemed to emanate26 directly from her person. It was not in the least unpleasant, and it reminded him — well, he wasn’t quite sure what it reminded him of. Pickled walnuts? New leather? Or was it the corridors of a hospital? (78)". He thought that she was "dotty", but he didn't care, nor does he really pay any close attention to how she acted or looked. All he thought was since she invited him to a place to stay for a good amount of money, she was welcoming and inviting, therefore, he assumed that she was innocent and not at all "wrong in the head". In the beginning, we all thought that this was going to be an innocent story where Billy enters a house and a landlady allows him to stay there. The landlady would mind her own business and be polite and Billy would be safe and just be there for a tiny bit, all happy and everything would be just fine. But no. As the story reveals more, it gets more twisted and dark. The landlady turns out to be purposefully poisoning Billy with tea and probably stuffing him later. All things will turn for a deadly end
