Correct Answer: because we
Solution : The first option is the correct choice.
When we read the sentence, we get to know that something happened because of which someone has to suffer. When the reason is given first and then the result or action, we must use "that is why", "therefore", or "then after".
So, when we observe the above sentences, we get to know there should be "that's why" instead of "because".
Hence, the correct sentence is: "The bus broke down, therefore we had to walk some distance."
