Canada’s Labour Day was【C1】______ celebrated in the spring but it was moved to the fall after 1894.

There was【C7】______ public support for the demonstration and the authorities could no longer deny the important role that the trade unions had to play in the【C8】______ Canadian democratic society.

选项
答案
I
解析
空格在连词and之后,在谓语动词led to之前,故应为副词。led to与前面的happened为并列谓语,这两个动作在时间上有先后之分,且led to常用于引出事件的结果或结论,据此判断此处最佳选择是eventually。
