Answer:On First Looking at Chapman's Homer

by John Keats (excerpt)

Then felt I like some watcher of the skies

   When a new planet swims into his ken;

Or like stout Cortez when with eagle eyes

   He stared at the Pacific—and all his men

Looked at each other with a wild surmise—

   Silent, upon a peak in Darien.

She had little chance of success.____________,she decided to enter the competition.
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

However

Explanation:

 The two sentences are independent, but in a way they have some thought connection. They imply in contrary ideas: <em>'little chance of success'</em> and <em>'enter the competition' </em> and therefore the correct word to fill the blank is the adverb however (used when you are adding a piece of information that seems to disagree with what you just said). <em>She had little chance of success. </em><em>However </em><em>, she decided to enter the competition.</em>
