解析
上下文题。根据词性,此处填入副词。可选范围是 otherwise“否则”,therefore“因此”,前句published the first official copies of the Declaration,the first copies that included the names of its signers“印刷了独立宣言的首份官方版本,且包含签字者的名字”是一个表原因的句子,承接了下面的表结果的句子announced the support of all thirteen colonies“宣布了十三个殖民地的支持”,可排除表示转折关系的副词otherwise,故选therefore。
