be used to connect two sentences. You are provided with three pairs of sentences. Identify which of the pairs given can be connected by the word or the conjunction given. Hence 1. The customer was displeased with her meal. The chef prepared a replacement. 2. The role of China is simple. I had a long conversation a few weeks ago with the Chinese prime minister. 3.

(c) HENCE is used to show cause-effect relationship. It can be used to join the sentences in 1 and 3. 1- the first sentence tells us the cause- the customer was unhappy with her meal, and the second gives the effect - the chef prepared another. "The customer was displeased with her meal, hence, the chef prepared a replacement."3 - the first sentence tells us the cause - the kittens were too young to eat solid food, and the second gives the effect - they needed to be bottle fed. "The abandoned kittens were too young to eat solid food, hence, we needed to bottle feed them every two hours." Thus, (c) is the right answer. 2 is incorrect as they do not share a cause-effect relationship.
