Select the phrase/connector which can be used to frame a single sentence from the given two sentences without changing the meaning.
It was quite late in the evening. She decided to start the next day.
I. As it was quite
II. Deciding to start
III. It being late
The sentence can be started using I and III. Option II cannot act as a link and no proper sentence can be formed.
As it was quite late in the evening she decided to start the next day.
It, being late in evening she decided to start the next day.
Thus option 3 is the correct answer.
