I've excerpted these 2 sentences from a book I bought. 1.They
send out a life line for students who are faced with the
daunting task of demonstrating their English language skills.
2.(from Another paragraph) They offer invaluable assistance to
students faced with the challenges of standardized English
language tests. I understand the meanings of both sentences, but
I don’t get the sentence structure why the second sentence
doesn’t include the words” who are.” Or does it just omit“who
are” ? If so, can the first sentence delete “who are,” too?
Please help solve my questions. Thanks! "who are" could be
omited in both sentences. It is not necessary But I would use a
comma after "students". Last edited by Dany; 05-May-2005 at

'students'? Hopefully I don't sound too offensive asking in this
manner; I haven't mastered English enough to use sentences in
the manner I'd like to. What difference would it make to the
meaning of the sentence with or without
