The correct answer is 'and'.
 
Key Points
  • The conjunction "and" is used to connect two related elements, in this case, "a fool" and "his money."
  • The sentence implies that the two elements are linked and result in the action of being parted.
  • Options 1, 3, and 4 are grammatically incorrect in this context as they do not establish the required connection.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option 2.
 
Complete Sentence: "A fool and his money are soon parted."
 
Additional Information
  • Option 1: "because" is incorrect because it does not logically link the two elements in the sentence.
  • Option 3: "towards" is incorrect as it is a preposition and does not work as a conjunction here.
  • Option 4: "of" is incorrect as it is also a preposition and cannot connect the elements in the sentence.
