Directions: In the following questions two statements have been given with connectors given below. You have to select that option which could connect both the sentences and make them grammatically and contextually correct.

Harry squelched along the deserted corridor.

He came across somebody who looked just as preoccupied as he was.

I. As

II. And

III. But

IV. Nevertheless

Only II and III

Only I

Only I and II

Only I and IV

Only IV

Explanation:

- Statement I (As): "As" connects two actions happening simultaneously. It fits well: "As Harry squelched along the deserted corridor, he came across somebody who looked just as preoccupied as he was."

- Statement II (And): "And" connects two related ideas. It also works: "Harry squelched along the deserted corridor and came across somebody who looked just as preoccupied as he was."

- Statement III (But): "But" is used to introduce a contrast. The sentences don't contrast, so this doesn't fit.

- Statement IV (Nevertheless): "Nevertheless" indicates contrast in ideas which doesn’t suit these sentences.

Correct Answer: Option 3, Only I and II
