Question

Read this excerpt from Stephen Crane’s The Blue Hote:

The Palace Hotel at Fort Romper was painted a light blue, a shade that is on the legs of a kind of heron, causing the bird to declare its position against any background. The Palace Hotel, then, was always screaming and howling in a way that made the dazzling winter landscape of Nebraska seem only a gray swampish hush.

Which type of narration is represented in this excerpt?
A.
First person
B.
Third person, objective
C.
Third person, limited
D.
Third person, omniscient

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The light blue color of the hotel is described in the passage as being the type of light blue that stands out anywhere. Because the hotel stood alone not far from the rest of the smaller more nondescript buildings of the town, it made an even greater impression on the travellers.

The strategic combination of the location of the hotel and the winter scenery would not have been sufficient without the huge added bonuses the hotel's strikingly captivating color scheme.
