以下是gre阅读长难句实例分析。gre长难句一直都是考生比较头疼的一个问题,不是因为gre考试专门考察这部分,而是在gre阅读中需要明白这些长难句才能理解整篇文章的意思。3 p2 F7 L$ S2 {7 `9 m' d; c

难句类型:复杂修饰、插入语' q) f: _$ d9 X7 F' _- [+ q3 O
解释:本句的怪异在于:real particles后面跟着两个定语从句,都是同时修饰real particles的,而且两个从句之间不用逗号隔开,却又加上and连接,令人一眼看上去极不习惯。& p; l+ \: W+ W& R# L8 r

$ {) ?+ @3 h% Y! I 公开对妇女压迫的存在的承认对于50年代的美国而言有些过分激进,而且B的结论,即妇女经济状况的变化,经管它本身不是一个充分的因素,但是“仍然是提高妇女地位的根本因素”的观点,尤其无法令人接受。

" _# k+ B( m; r2 g 解释:本句是由and所连接的两个分句,前一个分句的主语虽然有一些修饰成分,但整体而言还算好读;后面的分句中的修饰成分就比较难读;主语Beauvoir’s conclusion后面被加上了同位语从句that change in…,而且在从句的主语和谓语之间还加了一个插入语;我们好不容易把同位语从句中的成分补齐,后面又看到系表结构was particularly unacceptable的时候,想不起来主语是誰,不禁心中茫然;如果是没有练习过难句的人,也只好黯然神伤。
