Question

in 1815, while in exile in jamaica, venezuelan revolutionary simón bolívar penned a letter praising englands republican government and expressing hope that latin american nations seeking independence from spain might achieve something similar. the letter was addressed to a local merchant, henry cullen; _______ though, bolívars goal was to persuade political leaders from england and europe to support his cause. which choice completes the text with the most logical transition? choose 1 answer: a additionally, b ultimately, c accordingly, d consequently,

Explanation:

The text states that the letter was addressed to a local merchant, but Bolívar's goal was to reach political leaders. "Ultimately" (meaning in the end or finally) makes sense as it shows the end - goal despite the immediate recipient. "Additionally" (for adding information) is wrong as it's not adding a side - point. "Accordingly" (based on a previous statement) and "consequently" (showing a result) don't fit the contrast between recipient and goal.

Answer:

B. ultimately,
