　　又到了一年一度的考试冲刺季节了，无论是还在为上什么雅思培训课程而纠结的你们，还是已经身在雅思题海战术中的学子们，今天小编为大家奉上的餐点——（攻克长句）让大家收获颇多！！

　　

　　1. There had, of course, been dictionaries in the past, the first of these being a little book of some 120 pages, compiled by a certain Robert Cawdray, published in 1604 under the title A Table Alphabeticall ‘of hard usual English words'.(剑5, Test 1 passage 1)

　　

　　分析：本句主句“There had been dictionaries”;“the first of these being a little book of some 120 pages, compiled by a certain Robert Cawdray, published in 1604 under the title A Table Alphabeticall ‘of hard usual English words'”为独立主格结构，其中“compiled by a certain Robert Cawdray”和“published in 1604 under the title A Table Alphabeticall ‘of hard usual English words'”均为过去分词短语作定语，做a little book的定语。

　　

　　2. His approach to the problems that had worried writers throughout the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries was intensely practical.(剑5, Test 1 passage 1)

　　

　　分析：本句的主句为“His approach to the problems was intensely practical”;“that had worried writers throughout the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries”为定语从句，做the problems的定语，关系词为that。

　　

　　3. The scent she carried in her samples and on her body was a message to the other bees that this was the one they were looking for.(剑4, General Training Test B section 3)

　　

　　分析：本句的主句为“The scent was a message to the other bees”;“she carried in her samples and on her body”为定语从句，做The scent的定语，关系词在定语从句中做宾语，因此被省掉;“that this was the one they were looking for”为that引导的同位语从句，做a message的同位语;“they were looking for”为定语从句，做the one的定语，关系词在定语从句中做for的宾语，因此被省掉。

　　

　　4. A few years ago, in one of the most fascinating and disturbing experiments in behavioural psychology, Stanley Milgram of Yale University tested 40 subjects from all walks of life for their willingness to obey instructions given by a ‘leader' in a situation in which the subjects night feel a personal distaste for the actions they were called upon to perform.
