It can't be Edmund Spenser or William Shakespeare: they are English poets, not explorers.

Both Francis Drake and Sir Walter Raleigh were explorers: they are the options we can consider.

The correct answer is Francis Drake: he brought tobacco plant to Europe.

The question also mentions Walter Raleigh: he is known for popularizing Tobaco in the Old World.
