The word 'eventually' means which of the following?

• A. in the end
• B. at an unspecified time in the future
• C. finally
• D. immediately

Answer: (C)

Eventual means something happens later, after a period of time or after steps have occurred. It highlights that the event will occur in the future, just not right away. The best fit is the word that conveys arriving at a conclusion or result after waiting or effort—“finally.” For example: If you keep practicing, you will eventually improve; after all that hard work, you finally reach your goal. The other options miss the timing nuance: something immediate is ruled out by the idea of eventuality, and while one choice points to a future moment, it doesn’t emphasize the sense of delay or culmination as effectively as “finally.”
