Question

Choose the right answer to make a complete compound sentence.
She was tired, ______________ she went to bed early.

  1. Yet
  2. For
  3. And
  4. But

hintHint:

A compound sentence is a sentence that connects two independent clauses, typically with a conjunction. Look at the options and choose the word which would make a sensible and complete sentence.

The correct answer is: For


    We are required to fill in the blank with a word that conveys the meaning "due to the fact that" (due to the fact that she was tired, she went to bed early). Option a means "up until now", option c means "in addition to" and option d means "in contrast to", so they are all eliminated. Thus the correct answer is option b.
