记得学习六步搞定雅思阅读长难句的方法
雅思阅读长难句在雅思阅读中过于常见，既然无法避免，就当一个直面它的勇士！没有大量的练习是无法搞定长难句的，所以要做好打持久战的心理准备。下面就为大家分享，六部搞定雅思阅读长难句的方法，希望能够帮助到您，谢谢您的阅读。
雅思阅读长难句解析：
英语的基本句式结构其实很简单：主谓宾和主系表。主谓宾是“谁-做-什么”，例如：比如“羊吃草”;“洁白可爱的小绵羊蹦蹦跳跳欢快活泼地在一望无垠的广阔草原上幸福愉快地吃着鲜嫩碧绿的青草”一样也是主谓宾，只不过多了一些修饰的词，句子的核心意思还是“羊吃草”。主系表是“谁-是-什么”，同主谓宾一样。在阅读中我们要很快的找出核心句子，不出国考雅思有用吗不用每句话的意思都懂，但要知道这句话要表达的核心意思，即找到主谓宾或主系表的主体。
针对这两种句式结构抓主干，即把复杂的长难句转化成简单的句子。
主谓宾结构：寻找谓语动词
主系表结构：寻找系动词
也就是说，无论哪种句式，我们都要在心里默念寻找动词这个原则，以模糊匹配的方式来对应最有意义的那个动词，进而确认动词之前的主语和动词之后的宾语或表语。
雅思阅读考试，一个句子之所以能够拉长，除了在一个简单句中加上许多修饰成分之外，还有可能是长出了枝干—也就是加了从句，或者是由连词和平衡结构把若干简单句合并在了一起。雅思长难句最频繁出现的情况包括如下几种：
定语从句：that, which(介词+which), who,…...
状语从句：v+ing
寻找平衡结构：三大连词 and/or/but，
not only…...but also…...
not…...but…...
no more/longer/less …than
as…...as
not so …...as…...
还有一种特殊主系表值得单独说一说：
There be句型：寻找中心词
雅思阅读练习这个句型之所以特殊，是因为系动词和表语都已经以倒装的形式给出来了，欠缺的只是一个主语中心词而已，因此我们看到了there be开头的句子，一定先集中精力寻找到那个中心点。此外，这个句子是一些同学在雅思作文考场上易犯错误的`地方。在时间紧迫的压力下，可能会有同学不自觉地受到了中文思维的影响，写出诸如“There are many people do something.”此类的句子，如果在模拟考试的时候发现自己曾经犯过这类笔误，建议大家在考场上给自己留出1、2分钟的检查时间来。不出国考雅思有用吗查方法也很简单，把there be两个词遮住，如果剩下的部分还能读出一个完整的句子来，则原本的句子必定是有问题的，可以迅速把there be这两个词擦掉。
除了be动词外，还有一些there be形式的变体：
There come/comes/came
There appear/appears/appeared
There emerge/emerges/emerged
There may/might be
There can/could be
There happen to be
There used to be
There is/are going to be
