Explanation:

Conjunctions are words that link other words, phrases, or clauses together. Coordinating conjunctions allow you to join words, phrases, and clauses of equal grammatical rank in a sentence. The most common coordinating conjunctions are for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so. Lest is a conjunction and means "to avoid the risk of" or 'otherwise' and generally that phrase can be slotted in, adjusting the verb from the subjunctive mood. The word 'should' is just a way to put a clause into the future subjunctive. In the given sentence 'lest' must to used o portray you should walk fast to avoid the risk of missing the train. Thus option A is correct. 'Yet' as a conjunction means ‘but’ or ‘nevertheless’. We use it to show contrast. It often occurs after and. Thus Option B is incorrect. Option C can be ruled out as but is used to introduce a word or phrase that contrasts with what was said before. Else is an adjective or adverb, which means “in addition to what has been covered or seen so far.” 'Else' has to be replaced with 'or else' as in "Hurry up or else you'll be late." or with 'otherwise' because by definition, 'else' is not a conjunction. Thus option D is incorrect.
