Titanium has the strength of steel but weighs half only as much, hence its advantage for use in aircraft.

答案说错的是B。

我的问题是如果C没错的话，这里 hence是adv.而 its advantage显然是名词，那么 这里的hence its advantage for use in aircraft对吗？副词后能直接跟名词？？？这里是什么语法结构呀？

请大家指点指点我。谢谢先了。

有没有核对过？也觉得不太顺呀。

谢谢MM的回复.

还是不明白,既然hence是adv,那么为什么可以接名词呢?这是什么语法现象?

谢谢指点先了.

我爱宝宝

金山词霸上讲adv.
因此, 所以, 本来[其后动词常略去不用]

不知可信否?

按其所讲,应该是其后的句子省略了系动词吧.

ＪＪ这是偶从朗曼上找的例子．上面是说从报纸等上的说法，偶查遍了身边的语法书，博冰的，张道真的，都没找到匹配的说法，只说副词的位置比较灵活，是不是有点像汉语．不断产生些新说法，就像打扫卫生之类的，偶在查查看吧．

谢谢MM的回复。

看来只能这么接受了。

还有一点．ＪＪ看一下受不受用，我是在连词的用法里查到的，博冰书里说，英语里有些连接副词的性质与等立连词相似，如besides,hence,however,meanwhile,still,then,therefore,thus.,等立连词就是and,also,as,wellas,but,either.......
