Fortunately, in that moment of “desperate extremity,” the Powhatans brought food and rescued the starving strangers. A year later, several hundred more settlers arrived, and again they quickly ran out of provisions. They were forced to eat “dogs, cats, rats, and mice,” even “CORPSES” dug from graves. “Some have licked up the blood which hathfallen from their weak fellows,” a survivor reported. “One member of our colony murdered his wife, ripped the child out of her womb and threw it into the river, and after chopped the mother in pieces and salted her for his food, the same not being discovered before he had eaten part thereof.” “So great was our famine,” John Smith stated, “that a savage we slew and buried, the poorer sort took him up again and ate him; and so did diverse one another boiled and stewed with roots and herbs.”

Answer:
C). Added introductory words or phrases.
Explanation:
Introductory words or phrases are described as the adverbs or interjections that are primarily employed to introduce a sentence in order to establish connectivity between the ideas and ensure a smooth transition.
In the given sentence, 'introductory words or phrases' have been added to revise the sentence. The introductory word 'because' functions to link the two ideas(I studied hard and I did well on the exam') together in a cause-and-effect structure. <u>It converts the first clause('I studied hard') into a 'dependent clause'('Because I studied hard') that is setting the stage for main clause to ensure a smooth transition between ideas and enhance its efficacy</u>. Therefore, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
