(E) Inflated to make

Option E is correct as it is grammatically correct, makes the text fluent and easy to read, and also indicating a cause and effect situation.

Option A is incorrect because it does not use parallel text structure.

Option B uses unnecessary extra words. Moreover, the phrase "so that it could make" implies that the sole purpose of inflating was to terrify the passengers (which is not the case).

Option C is incorrect. It, although uses parallel structure, but it has less stress on the cause and effect situation (inflating causes terrifying).

Option D is incorrect not only on grammatical basis (incorrect use of "make") but also for the same reason as option C.
