The crew was made up of accomplished sailors and thus were highly paid to do the work on the ship.

问题描述:

The crew was made up of accomplished sailors and thus were highly paid to do the work on the ship.
请高手帮我分析一下上面句子的结构 那个thus把我弄得有点晕 、
还有一问:
At this point,the little boy came out running towards his mother with tears in his eyes.
这里的came out怎么翻译?两个题

The crew was made up of accomplished sailors and thus were highly paid to do the work on the ship.and连接的两个并列句,thus指代上文中的accomplished sailors came out 出来有问题继续!thus可以做代词啊?和which差不多吗?不太一样,thus不引导从句,which可以。
