I'd say for sure "In conclusion". "Overall" might be one of them as well.

Answer:

d.

In conclusion

Step-by-step explanation:

This transitional term is often used to come to a conclusion about something, not a summary. The others are more likely to be used when summarizing something because, you're summing something up or, by reducing content, being brief. And if you're talking generally about something, you're approaching its overall content, but in a brief way, most likely.
