请问后半句是什么结构和意思?
The book suggests that women are more used to pain than men,as so are not as likely to divulge secrets under torture.第一个as是由于的意思吧?还有be likely to do sth.是固定搭配,那么so·····as 是什么结构啊?倒装句型?

答案

The book suggests that women are more used to pain than men,as so (women) are not as likely to divulge secrets under torture as men are.完整的句子如上面.第一个as是“所以”的意思,表顺承so...as在此句中...
