各位老师好，这是在网上搜到的“2021年6月CATTI二级笔译考试真题”中的一段Almost half a billion people are working fewer paid hours than they would like or lack adequate access to paid work.
请问working fewer paid hours中的 fewer paid hours是什么成分？该怎么样理解？以前极少见到如此的要点。
不一样的人会有不一样的讲解。有人会觉得fewerpaid hours为名词作状语，或觉得省略了介词。但也有觉得此时work为及物动词，后接时间名词作宾语。比如《韦氏高阶》work：
[+ object]
He works about 60 hours a week.
The job requires that you work some nights andweekends.
She is used to working long hours.
