Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's examine each quote.

“becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them”

  • This states that the colonies need to be independent.

“The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations”

  • This quote states that the King (George III) had abused his power and impeded on rights.

“it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government”

  • This states that the people are allowed to change or get rid of a government.

“and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer”

  • History shows people will suffer.

So, the quote that demonstrates King George III has abused the colonist's right is B. “The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations”
