Solution

The correct option is C Getting up, he walked away.
Compound sentences can be transformed into simple sentences by changing first clause into a participial phrase. Here "He got up" is changed to "getting up". Hence, Option B is correct. The rest of the options do not fit the description, hence incorrect.
