The third alternative is correct (C).

Although we are living the 21st century, some countries still adopt the death penalty as punishment for serious crimes. This happens mainly in Eastern religious dictatorships, but incredibly it is still practiced in some US states.

We know that public policy is a matter of choice between different needs. In this sense, one of the functions of the state is to manage the best possible public resources to ensure the fulfillment of all constitutional demands.

In this way, it is perplexing that the state spends three times more to execute the death penalty than to arrest a criminal forever, as item (C) points out. Besides being a savagery, it is a waste of public resources.

The Tennessee Valley Authority erected 20 dams, ________ providing much-needed jobs for up to 40,000 workers.

mrs_skeptik [129]

The correct answer is C. Eventually

Explanation:

An appropriate transition should always show the relationship between two sentences or two grammatical elements. In the case of the sentence "The Tennessee Valley Authority erected 20 dams, ________ providing much-needed jobs for up to 40,000 workers" it is suggested the jobs given to 40,000 workers were the result or consequence to the construction of 20 dams.

According to this, it is necessary to include a consequence transition such as therefore, thus or eventually. This means in this case the best option is "eventually" because this is the only transition that shows the consequence relationship between the two sentences; while the transition "because of" is used to show cause, "despite" is used to show contrast and "in addition" is used to add information.
