Answer 2

Many students in rural areas do not get access to quality education; consequently, they struggle to find well-paid jobs after graduating from university. 'Consequently' is an adverb which means 'as a result'.

What is an adverb?

• An adverb is a word-modifying component of speech.
• It can describe a verb (a word that performs an action), an adjective (a word that describes a noun), another adverb, or a clause in more detail.
• Adverbs can also serve as prepositions, which are words that indicate how one word in a sentence is related to another. We refer to these as prepositional adverbs.
• There are five fundamental categories of adverbs in the English language that respond to questions like "when," "where," "how," "how frequently," and "to what degree." There are five different categories of adverbs: time, place, frequent, manner, and degree.

Therefore, the correct answer is 'Many students in rural areas do not get access to quality education; consequently, they struggle to find well-paid jobs after graduating from university'. The synonyms for 'consequently' are accordingly, ergo, hence, so, therefore, thereupon, thus and wherefore.
