D. Since the father likes taking risks in a game, he might like taking risks in life as well.
This is the best choice. Process of elimination helps when answering this question. From this excerpt, we don't have any clues that the father is possessed or says insane things. We also cannot infer that the woman knitting indicates that the character don't have good clothes to wear. During this time period many women would knit in the evening. We also can't infer that the son is not old enough to play chess. There is nothing to indicate the age of the son or that he doesn't know the rules.

Explanation:
A comma splice, also referred to as a comma fault, is a mistake made when a comma is used to connect two independent clauses without the use of a conjunction. The given sentence can be split into two independent clauses:
- The last train is leaving the station.
- It is time to get on board.
The best correction is the choice C) <em>Because the last train is leaving the station, it is definitely time to get on board</em>, because it is the only choice that has the same meaning as the original sentence. <em>Because</em> is a subordinating conjunction that shows a cause-and-effect relationship between a subordinate clause and the main clause. The subordinate (dependent) clause in the choice C is <em>Because the last train is leaving the station. </em>The train leaving is a cause of what is stated in the independent (main) clause: <em>it is definitely time to get on board. </em>Conjunctions used in other choices don't have this meaning.
