Answer:
tina was prepared for every possible question but she could not appear in the examination due to her illness.
Answer:
'As' is used to explain reasons and to make comparisons in a sentence. For example, 'I didn't go to school as I was sick.' or 'She was as tall as the giraffe.' As the given sentence doesn't explain any reason or comparison, we can't use 'as' here.
'And' is used to connect two related clauses or sentences in a sentence. For example, 'I like black and red colours.' As the given sentence doesn't join two related clauses, we can't use 'and' here.
'Such' is a predetermined, determiner and pronoun. it means 'of the type previously or to be mentioned.' For example, 'My work involves many such responsibilities.' As the given sentence doesn't explain anything that is predetermined or will be determined.
'So' is used as a conjunctional adverb or adjective to define its degree. For example, 'She is so happy.' As the sentence has an adjective 'weak', we can use 'so' to explain its degree. Thus option C is the correct answer.
'The old lady is so weak that she cannot walk.'
