Answer 1

Hint: A conjunction is used to join two separate sentences and form one sentence. It does not alter the meaning of the two sentences or their context.

Complete answer:
From the hint given to us, we know that conjunction is used to join two separate sentences and form one sentence. It does not alter the meaning of the two sentences or their context. Thus, we can infer that suitable conjunction has to be used to connect the given two sentences.

>In the first option, we observe that the conjunction ‘and’ is used to connect the given two sentences. The resultant sentence is grammatically correct and the meaning of either of the two sentences has not been altered. Hence, we can conclude that option A is the correct answer.
>In the second option, we observe that instead of a conjunction, the preposition ‘for’ has been used. Thus, making the resultant sentence grammatically incorrect. Hence, option B is not the correct answer.
>In the third option, we observe that the conjunction ‘or’ has been used. Or is used to indicate an alternative. However, it is unsuitable for the given context of the two sentences. Hence, option C is not the correct answer.
>In the fourth option, we observe that the conjunction ‘nor’ has been used. Nor is used to indicate a negative clause However, we observe that the second clause is not negative. Hence, option D is not the correct answer.

Hence Option ‘A’ is the correct answer

Note: Conjunctions are a closed class of words, that is, no new conjunctions can be formed and added to the list of already existing conjunctions.
