Solution

The correct option is B False
The given statement is false because the resulting sentence must contain the adverb clause of time, "before they get wet in the rain", as "before" is the most suitable conjunction that refers to time. "For'" is a coordinating conjunction that is used to form a compound sentence, and not a complex one. Moreover, it refers to inference and not time. Hence, option B is correct and A is incorrect.
