EnglishParts of Speech
Fill in with suitable conjunction: He advanced ______ he could.
  1. a.until
  2. b.while
  3. c.as far as
  4. d.as

Answer: (C) as far as

"As far as he could" is the idiomatic way to express reaching the maximum possible extent or limit of an action, which fits the sense of the sentence; "until", "while" and plain "as" don't convey this limiting sense.
