Answer: A. because it helps him make money

Explanation:

Pat Scully in the short story titled, <em>The Blue Hotel </em>by <em>Stephen Crane</em> painted his hotel (the Palace hotel) blue so that it might stand out from its surroundings and therefore catch the eye of prospective customers.

This would draw the prospective customers in and increase the likelihood that they would patronize Scully and make him more money.

Answer:

D. because it helps him make money

Explanation:

I choose D. because it helps him make money, for 2 reasons after reading the excerpt.

1, "it was not to be thought that any traveler could pass the Palace Hotel without looking at it."

2,  "Pat Scully, the owner, had proved himself a master of strategy when he chose his paints. It is true that on clear days, when the great express trains swept through Fort Romper, passengers were overcome at the sight."

To similfy, it is evidence to support that the reason why he choose light blue was to attract the attention of possible customers, which, it's purpose is to help him make money.

I would've chosen cheap at first but then thrifty means being cheap and using it for a cause, not wastefully. So that's why it best fits that sentence. Hope this helps!
