篇1：GRE阅读考试长难句实例解析

For one thing, no population can be driven entirely by density-independent factors all the time.(5)难句类型：正话反说

请思考：如果文中说这句话的前提是：all population are driven by two (and only two) categories of growth parameters, one is density-independent factors, and the other is density-independent factors. 那么作者说上面的这句话有什么用意。

解释：本句虽然貌不惊人，但本书既然将其收录进来，并标出难度5，就意味着其中有怪异之处。值得一提的是，本文前面曾把控制种群密度的因素分为两种，一种叫做density-dependent factors(这里简称d-d因素)，另一种叫做dentsity-independent factors(简称d-I因素)。原文的直译虽然好懂，但是总令人感觉说得不甚明白。显然，GRE或GMAT的作者不可能随便说一句无关痛痒的话，那么没有任何种群能够在所有的时间全被d-I因素所控制，其真正意思是什么呢?就是：一切种群都必然在某个时间内受到d-d因素的控制。本句是ETS在考试中惯用的正话反说的典型例子，请读者深沉体会。本句在文章中也是理解作者态度的关键所在。

意群训练：For one thing, no population can be driven entirely by density-independent factors all the time.

尽管新gre单词量减少，取消了“类反”但是难度并没有减少，这更要求考生在新gre阅读考试中增强逻辑推理能力。虽然逻辑推理能力的考察对我们国内考生来说有点难度，只要保持好心态就能更好地去理解长难句在gre阅读考试句子类型型。

篇2：GRE阅读考试长难句实例解析

The increase in the numbers of married women employed outside the home in the twentieth century had less to do with the mechanization of housework and an increase in leisure time for these women than it did with their own economic necessity and with high marriage rates that shrank the available pool of single women workers, previousl, in many cases，the only women employers would hire. (5)

二十世纪已婚妇女在家庭以外就业的人数不断增加，这与家务的机械化及这些妇女闲暇时间的增加并无多大联系，更多地是与妇女自身的经济需要和高婚姻率相关。高婚姻率致使所能雇佣的单身女工的总量缩减，而在此之前的许多情形中，单身女性则是雇主们所愿雇佣的唯一—一类妇女。 The pool of 如果后面跟着一群人，则表示劳动力资源。

难句类型：复杂修饰、插入语

解释：主语the increase之后照例来了一堆修饰成分。后面的had less to do with…than do with…的意思是与前面的东西的关系不如与后面的关系那么重要，相当于中文的与其说还不如说…。但是本句的比较双方都是又臭又长的由and所连接的两个名词性短语，令读者阅读时的思维难以连贯。The pool of如果后面跟着一种人群，则这个词组指劳动力资源。

意群训练：The increase in the numbers of married women employed outside the home in the twentieth century had less to do with the mechanization of housework and an increase in leisure time for these women than it did with their own economic necessity and with high marriage rates that shrank the available pool of single women workers, previously,in many cases, the only women employers would hire.

篇3：GRE阅读考试长难句实例解析

It was not the change in office technology, but rather the separation of secretarial work, previously seen as an apprenticeship for beginning managers, from administrative work that in the 1880’s created a new class of “dead-end” jobs, thenceforth considered “women’s work.” (5)

十九世纪八十年代，产生了新的一类“没前途”的职业，这并不是因为办公室技术发生了改变，而是由于秘书工作——在此之前被视作是初起步的经理们的一种习见训练——与行政工作的分离。自此以后，这类“没前途”的职业便被视作是“女人的工作。”

难句类型：复杂修饰、插入语

解释：这句话的结构是It was something that,,,It是形式主语，其真正的内容是was之后、that、之前的something的内容。本句的something结构复杂、长度惊人，并且包含了一个较长的插入语，把固定搭配separation from分开，造成了极大的阅读困难，其实这个句子说得简单就是It was the separation of secretarial work from administrative work that created a new class of jobs.

意群训练：It was not the change in office technology,but rather the separation of secretarial work,previously seen as an apprenticeship for beginning managers,from administrative work that in the 1880’s created a new class of “dead-end” jobs，thenceforth considered “women’s work.”

注：本文难度再分不清separation … from 的搭配关系

篇4：GRE阅读考试长难句实例解析

Friedrich Engels, however, predicted that women would be liberated from the “social, legal, and economic subordination” of the family by technological developments that made possible the recruitment of “the whole female sex into public industry”. (3+)

FE,却预测妇女们将被从家庭的“社会、法律和经济压迫”中解放出来，只是通过使得征召“整个女性阶层进入公共的工业中去”成为可能的技术进步的方式做到的。

难句类型：复杂修饰、倒装

解释：本句的前半部分简单，后面的宾语从句中的第二个状语by technological developments 后面跟着的定语从句中出现了倒装：the made/possible/the recruitment of the whole female sex into public industry的正常语序应该是that made the recruiment of the whole female sex into public industry/possible/，固定搭配make…possible中的副词possible被倒装到了前面。

意群训练：Friedrich Engels, however, predicted that women would be liberated from the “social, legal, and economic subordination” of the family by technological developments that made possible the recruitment of “the whole female sex into public industry”.

篇5：新GRE阅读考试长难句实例解析精选

For the woman who is a practitioner of feminist literary criticism, the subjectivity versus objectivity, or critic-as-artist-or-scientist, debate has special significance; for her, the question is not only academic, but political as well, and her definition will court special risks whichever side of the issue it favors.(5)

对于一个从事女权主义文学评论的妇女来说，主观性还是客观性，或者说评论家应该做艺术家还是作科学家的争论有着特殊的重要性;对她来说，此问题不仅仅是学术上的，而且还是政治上的，并且她所给出的定义，不管有利于问题的哪一方面，都会招致特殊的风险。

难句类型：复杂修饰、插入语、倒装、省略、抽象词、易淆指代

解释：首先解释一下几个词汇：versus:在这里不是前面的against的意思，它和后面的or都是“是….还是…”的意思，其英文释义为：in contrast to or as the alternative of free trade versus pretection 。court:招致(风险、失败)，英文释义：to act as to invite or provoke (courts disaster).

分号前面的句子的主语被插入语“or critic-as-artist-or-scientist”分开，正常情况下应该是the subjectivity versus objectivity debate。这种名词修饰名词的情况在GRE和GMAT考试中是常见的，如前面讲过的句子中出现的mind-body problem.

最后的条件状语从句whichever side of the issue it favors看上去不难，但却不好理解，首先是whichever被提前的表示方法，相当于no matter it favors which side of the issue 的倒装，no matter被省略，which提前并改成了whichever，后面的side of the issue也被提前到主谓it favors之前，issue在此之前面的主要问题，即主观性还是客观性的问题，而it前面的名词太多，一下子不好辨别，其实就是指本句的主语her definition.

意群训练：For the woman who is a practitioner of feminist literary criticism, the subjectivity versus objectivity, or critic-as-artist-or-scientist, debate has special significance; for her, the question is not only academic, but political as well, and her definition will court special risks whichever side of the issue it favors.

尽管新gre单词量减少，取消了“类反”但是难度并没有减少，这更要求考生在新gre阅读考试中增强逻辑推理能力。虽然逻辑推理能力的考察对我们国内考生来说有点难度，只要保持好心态就能更好地去理解长难句在gre阅读考试句子类型。

篇6：新GRE阅读考试长难句实例解析精选

If she defines feminist criticism as objective and scientific – a valid, verifiable, intellectual method that anyone, whether man or woman , can perform – the definition not only precludes the critic-as-artist approach, but may also impede accomplishment of the utilitarian political objectives of those who seek to change the academic establishment and its thinking, especially about sex roles.(4)假如她把女权主义文学评论定义为客观的和科学性的——一个有效的、可证实的、理性的、无论男女都可以使用的方法——那么，这个定义不仅将排挤掉批评家作为艺术家的方法，而且可能会阻碍那些寻求改变学术界的现状的及其思维，特别是有关性别角色的思维的人们的实用主义的政治目标的成就。

难句类型：复杂修饰、插入语、抽象词

解释：这句话在原文中紧接着上例的难句，句中的插入语虽然长，但是并不打断正常的语义，因此不算难懂;但是but also之后的分句中的宾语accomplishment的修饰成分实在太复杂，而且充斥着各色的极端抽象的词汇，没有一定的词汇功底，这句话的意思是不容易看懂的。

意群训练：If she defines feminist criticism as objective and scientific – a valid, verifiable, intellectual method that anyone, whether man or woman , can perform – the definition not only precludes the critic-as-artist approach, but may also impede accomplishment of the utilitarian political objectives of those who seek to change the academic establishment and its thinking, especially about sex roles.
