Answer : Option C
Explanation :
The statements are not related with each other. Tom studies in standard five as he would have passed the standard fourth. And, there can be many reasons that he failed in standard five. So, both the statements are effects of independent causes.
The statements can be related with eachother because if Tom fails in standard five therefore Tom studies in standard five. Try to use the word 'so' and 'therefore' then you can relate both the sentence. This is a basice rule in these type of questions.
