It was she, a Baltimore【C1】______, who published the first official copies of the Declaration, the first copies that included the names of its signers and【C2】______ announced the support of all thirteen colonies.
Mary Goddard first got into printing at the age of twenty-four when her brother opened a printing shop in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1762. When he【C3】______to get into trouble with his partners and creditors, it was Mary Goddard and her mother who were left to run the shop. In 1765 they began publishing the Providence Gazette, a weekly newspaper. Similar【C4】______seemed to follow her brother as he opened businesses in Philadelphia and again in Baltimore. Each time Ms. Goddard was brought in to run the newspapers. After starting Baltimore’s first newspaper, The Maryland Journal, in 1773, her brother went 【C5】______trying to organize a colonial postal service. While he was in debtor’s prison, Mary Katherine Goddard’s name【C6】______on the newspaper’s masthead for the first time.
When the Continental Congress fled there from Philadelphia in 1776, it commissioned Ms. Goddard to print the first【C7】______version of the Declaration of Independence in January, 1777. After printing the documents, she herself paid the post riders to deliver the Declaration throughout the【C8】______.
During the American Revolution, Mary Goddard continued to publish Baltimore’s only newspaper, which one historian【C9】______was "second to none among the colonies" .

选项
答案
O
解析
therefore,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。
