④主句部分的谓语would do so指代的是who引导定语从句中所写行为,即would switch to trucks or…;

Television is one of the means by which these feelings are created and conveyed—and perhaps never before has it served so much to connect different peoples and nations as in the recent events in Europe.
【重点词汇】
means [miːnz] n. 方法;方式;途径
convey [kənˈveɪ] v. 传达;输送;传送
perhaps [pəˈhæps] adv. 可能;大概;也许
【句子分析】
分句1:Television(主语)is(系动词)one of the means(表语)
分句2:and(连词)it(主语)has [never before] served [so much](谓语)
By which定语从句:by which(介词+状语)these feelings(主语)are created and conveyed(谓语)
【补充分析】
①by which引导的定语从句先行词为means;
②“介词+关系代词”在从句中主要起关系副词的作用,即在定语从句中充当状语。定语从句还原为these feelings are created and conveyed by which,在正式文体中介词会和引导词一起提前到定语从句的句首来引导从句;
③分句2中,原本是一个倒装结构,否定副词置于句首,谓语要用部分倒装,说明电视前所未有的作用,结构分析当中是还原的语序;
④to connect different peoples and nations为分句2中的目的状语;
⑤as in the recent events in Europe为分句2中的比较状语。
【参考译文】
电视是引发和传递这些感受的手段之一——在欧洲近来发生的事件中,它把不同的民族和国家连到一起,其作用之大,前所未有。
