Select the phrase/ connector (it must be at the start) from the given three options which can be used to form a single sentence from the two sentences given below, implying the same meaning as expressed in the statement sentences. The country was in a state of deep turmoil. The President declared an emergency. (i) As the country ..... (ii) On declaring an emergency ..... (iii) Being in a state of ..... Correct Answer Only (i)
The correct answer is 'Only (i)'.
Key Points
- The given two sentences are only connected with the connector 'As' to make a meaningful sentence.
- 'As' is an adverb that is used to give the reason.
- From the second sentence, We can conclude that the president declared the emergency but the reason is the first sentence hence we need to use an adverb to tell the reason.
- From the third sentence, it can not be possible because 'being' is used, it means the subject 'the country' has already known so we can't use 'being as a state'
Out of the given three options, the two sentences can be joined into a single sentence as:- 'As the country was in a state of deep turmoil, the President declared an emergency.'
