　　四级词汇讲解:

 

　　本句的主干是those...were more likely to say...than those...其中，who引导的定语从句who facedconsiderable work demands but coped with the challenge修饰第一个 those, who felt theycouldn't gel the job done则修饰第二个those ; they were in good health为say的宾语从句;theycouldn't get the job done为felt的宾语从句。

 

　　get sth. done意为“做完某事”，通常是由自己完成。如:I want to get my car repaired.我想自己把车修理修理。have sth. done意为“让某人做某事”，通常由别人来完成。如:I want to have my hair cut.我想去理发。(让别人给剪头发)
