combining sentences

Hi
Please tell which is idiomatic.
Being patient, she listened to him fully.
Because of being patient, she listened to him fully.
  

Top answer

The first option is more natural. However, I usually don't use fully at the end of the sentence(although it isn't wrong). But, since you're asking for "natural" I think I would say something like "she listened to him until he finished" or "she gave him her full attention>"
