Reading 1:A remarkable Beetle1.easier to control than buffalo flies【not given】-原文（第二段）：Ausrealia’s native dung beetles are scrub and woodland dwellers,specializing in couase marsupial droppings(粪便) and avoiding the soft cattle dung in which bush flies and bufflo flies breed.[澳洲本土的蜣螂生活在灌木丛和林地里，特别喜欢吃有袋动物的粪便，不吃灌木蝇和水牛蝇繁殖的软牛粪。
]-分析：原文并没有提到灌木蝇和水牛蝇控制的难易之分，因此答案为not given。
2.of dung beetle were initiallybrought to Australia by the CSIRO(由CSIRO带到澳大利亚,brought to A by B 由B带到A).【no】-原文(根据CSIRO定位至第3段)：Between 1968 and 1982,the CSIRO imported insects from about 50 different species of dung beetle,from Asia, Europe and Africa,aiming to match them to different climatic zones in Australia.-分析：由原文知从1968年到1982年，CSIRO从亚洲、欧洲和非洲进口了大约50种不同种类的蜣螂，目的是让它们适应澳大利亚不同的气候区。
而不是题目中的4000种蜣螂，故答案为no。
3.题目：Dung beetles were brought to Australia by the CSIRO over a fourteen-year period.【yes】-原文：Between 1968 and 1982,the CSIRO imported insects from about 50 different species of dung beetle,from Asia, Europe and Africa,aiming to match them to different climatic zones in Australia.-分析：1968至1982为14年，题目和原文相符合，故答案为yes。
雅思阅读中的长难句分析
雅思阅读中的长难句分析雅思阅读考试中有很多长句，而考生如果语法方面有任何一点差错，或者不擅长于长句短读(迅速找出一个长句的主句即主谓宾/主系表)，都会在雅思阅读考试中失利。
因此考生们在备考的过程中，对于英语中的从句必须要有很好的掌握，而雅思阅读考试中出现频率最高的从句之一就是名词性从句。
在句子中起名词作用的句子叫名词性从句(noun clauses)。
名词性从句的功能相当于名词词组，它在复合句中能担任主语、宾语、表语、同位语、介词宾语等，因此根据它在句中不同的语法功能，名词性从句又可分别称为主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句、介词宾语从句等。
主语从句在复合句中用作主语的从句称为主语从句(subject clause)。
引导主语从句的关联词有从属连词、疑问代词、疑问副词、缩合连接代词、缩合连接副词等。
如：★That they were in truth sisters was clear from the facial resemblance between them。
很明显，她们的确是亲姊妹，她们的脸型很相似。
(关联词是从属连词that)★Who should be responsible for the senior citizens has been widely discussed in our community。
谁应该对老年人负责这个问题在社区里被广泛讨论。
(关联词是疑问代词who)★Where we can dispose of the increasing rubbish is a great headache to many governments。
在哪儿处置日益增多的垃圾对很多政府而言是件头痛的事。
(关联词是疑问副词where)★Whoever pollutes the environment should be punished。
不论谁污染环境都应该受到惩罚。
(关联词是缩合连接代词whoever)★Wherever you are is my home—my only home。

雅思阅读训练之长句子专项分析
雅思阅读训练之长句子专项分析雅思阅读中常常会有些长难句，成为我们阅读过程中的障碍。
今日我给大家带来了雅思阅读训练之长句子专项分析，盼望能关心到大家，下面我就和大家共享，来观赏一下吧。
【高分秘籍】雅思阅读训练之长句子专项分析多年朗读英文造成的悲剧性后果就是许多同学不把看到的东西念出来，他就读不下去，看不懂文章，这样的阅读其实是在读音节，而其阅读的速度会大大减慢，正确的读法应是读意群(word group),所谓的意群就是指几个相邻的表示同类意思的词，而读意群就是说把这几个词用一眼看下来，可以使阅读速度成数倍的提高。
这种力量的训练是帮你拿到雅思阅读6.5分以上的最重要的训练。
当然在短时间内拿到抱负的分数，我们在课堂上所叙述的雅思5大题型的技巧是分不开的，但是假如只有技巧，只能关心你在短时间内找到绝大多数题目的位置，可是究竟某些力量的题目需要精读的技能，这就是从句式结构开头训练。
例句：The methods that a community devisesto perpetuate itself come into being to preserve aspects of the culture legacy that thatcommunity perceives as essential.这样的句子，我们完全不用一个一个单词的来读，由于英语中有很多虚词，只有语法意义而无实际的意思;还有很多词组，只有几个词放在一起才有完整的意义，如上述的例句的前3个词the methodsthat,我们可以看出，the methods是名词，that 是一个连词，由于that 的后面是句子a community devises toperpetuate itself。
即that所引导的句子为定语从句，是修饰that methods,即什么样的methods，而come into being是谓语，come into being意思指的是：come into existence or 简洁点is made，to preserve是目的，即protect，aspects of the culture legacy,这是一个A OF B的名词短语，在此短语中，culture legacy,是重要的部分，而后面有两个that,前一个that 不言而喻是连词，后一个that 是介词，指代thatcommunity,culture legacy是名词，后用that的句子在后做修饰，因此为定语。

雅思阅读考试中往往有很多长难句，对于考生来说很难在看到的第一眼就完完全全地理解，而这些难于理解的长难句往往又是雅思阅读出题的点，那么要如何攻破雅思阅读长难句呢?小马过河雅思培训老师建议从语法分析的角度进行加强，能够快速加强对于雅思阅读长难句的理解能力。
“剑5”Test 1的第二篇阅读中间有一个句子(21页F段4行至8行)：“A modern hard-core sociobiologistmight even go so far as to claim that this aggressive instinct evolved as anadvantageous trait, having been of survival value to our ancestors in theirstruggle against the hardships of life on the plains and in the caves,ultimately finding its way into our genetic make-up as a remnant of our ancientanimal ways.”这个句子也快要达到5行的长度，但仔细研究会发现：“modern”和“hard-core”都是对sociobiologist的修饰;紧接着后面实际上是“so …as”的结构;“that”引导的宾语从句之中，“having”和“finding”显然是现在分词作为状语，其逻辑主语依然是宾语从句中的主语“instinct”。
单独如果写一个句子“Beinga vegetarian, she does not eat any meat.”，应该许多考生在理解上都没有问题;但是上述句子中本身结构就已经很复杂，最后还是两个现在分词并列，就未必所有考生都能一次看懂了。
手把手教你分析雅思阅读长难句
1. That sex ratio will be favored which maximizes the number of descendants an individual will have and hence the number of gene copies transmitted. （难度系数5，下同）译文：那种性别比例能在最大程度上增加一个个体所能拥有的后代数量，并因此能在最大程度上增加所传递到后代身上去的基因复制品的数量。
难句类型：倒装、省略<a > 本句的正常语序应当是：That sex ratio which maximizes the number of descendants an individual will have and hence the number of gene copies transmitted will be favored.但是因为主语That sex ratio之后的以which引导的修饰它的定语从句，如果按照以上语序，则有头重脚轻之感。
所以原文将此长长的从句倒装成谓语will be favored之后。
<b > 在which引导的从句中，有两处省略：第一处在maximize的第一个宾语the number of descendants that an individual will have中，an individual will have是修饰descendants 的定语从句，但是，因为在从句中作have的宾语，所以引导词that可以省略。
第二处省略是在第二个the number of 之前，省略了与前面一样的成分that sex ratio which maximizes. And hence在此表示后面的成分作为前面“最大化一个个体的后代的数目的”结果。
意群训练：That sex ratio will be favored which maximizes the number of descendants an individual will have and hence the number of gene copies transmitted.2. （This is ）A desire to throw over reality a light that never was might give away abruptly to the desire on the part of what we might consider anovelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower .(5++)（这是一种）译文：照亮现实的欲望，此欲望从来就不会唐突的取代后面的那种欲望，后者是我们可以将其部分的理解为一个兼任小说加和科学家的人想要去准确并具体的记录下一朵花的结构和文理的那种意义上的欲望。
雅思阅读长难句分析
雅思阅读长难句分析雅思阅读中所谓的对长句的处理就是指能清楚地知道这个长句的主干在是什么呢，基本上指的就是这个长句的主谓宾或主谓表是什么。
这样的话，就大大减轻了考生的负担和压力。
因为主干的单词往往都相对而言比较简单，并且，主干上的意思基本上就是作者的要表达的意义。
当然，还有一个点是能弄懂长句的比较有立竿见影的好处就是出题者的出题特点。

雅思阅读长句解析——句句有本难念的经2013-12-03 13:30 类别：雅思阅读来源：enguo 责编：meten1. The only way that they can preserve their history is to recount it as sagas--legends handed down from one generation of story-tellers to another. 解读:legends作sagas的同位语,后接被动分词短语做定语。
基本结构：主+定+谓+宾+同位。
翻译:他们保存历史的唯一方法是把历史作为英雄故事讲述--由说书者代代相传。
2.One can tell the difference almost at a glance for the spider always has eight legs and an insect never more than six. 解读:主谓宾+原因状语(省略句) an insect never more than six 应该理解为昆虫只有六条腿而不是昆虫绝不多于六条腿,全句翻译如下: 翻译:谁都可以一眼就看出蜘蛛与昆虫不同,蜘蛛都是八条腿,而昆虫最多只有六条。
3. Such inns as there were dirty and flea-ridden; the food simply local cheese accompanied by bread ofen twelve months old, all washed down with coarse wine. 解读:第二个分句中,simply是副词，意为"食物只有···"，而accompanied含被动意思，说明人们把陈面包和乳酪搭配着吃，并不是乳酪自己同面包相配。
第二句作者把谓语省略了。
翻译：那里的小旅店通常又肮脏，跳蚤又多.吃的食物仅仅是当地产的乳酪加上存放了一年之久的面包，大家只能就着下等酒把它们吞下去. 4.The gorilla is something of a paradox in the African scene. 解读：这里的paradox并不是说猩猩是自相矛盾的动物，而是指人们对其捉摸不透。
翻译：大猩猩是非洲景观中有点让人捉摸不透的家伙。
5.All this and many other things remain almost as much a mystery as they were when the French explorer Du Chaillu first described the animal to the civilized world a century ago. 解读:句子是一个比较复杂的主从复合长句，应该采用分句法，逆序法来译，先将when引导的状语从句译，再译出主句。
翻译：100年前法国探险家Du Chaillu第一次向文明世界叙述过这种动物，如今这一切和其他许多事情几乎像100年前一样，仍然是个谜。
6.I would have been very pleased to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem. For one thing, being a problem gives you a certain identity, and that is one of the things the young are busily engaged in seeking. 解读:identity指的是与众不同的个性，不是指身份 翻译：假如有人认为我是一个麻烦的话，我一定会感到十分得意。
至少，被人看成问题会使别人在某种程度上认识我是谁。
这点正是年轻人所热衷追求的事情之一。
7.On the village green, where you pick up sides and no feeling of local patriotism is involved, it is possible to play simply for the fun and exercise. 解读：local patriotism是热爱本乡本土之心，注意不要理解成地方主义(localism) 翻译：当你在乡村的草坪上比赛时，随意分为两边，并不存在热不热爱本地区的问题，只有这个时候才有可能为了娱乐和锻炼而进行比赛。
8.In textile areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work, but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a child's home life, the number of married women in employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. 解读：作为一个复合句，原文包含三个意思，主要应当注意几个动词的不同时态，从而分清楚三层意思之间的关系。
翻译：虽然在那些纺织工业区，母亲出去上班早已司空见惯，但是现在这种现象更为普遍，如今儿童的家庭生活中，母亲去上班已经是习以为常的事情了。
因为在最近二十五年中，已婚妇女就业的人数已经增加了一倍多。
9. It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home, and his children rarely, if ever, see him at his place of work. 翻译：现在做父亲的一般都不在家里干本行活计或者其他行当，而他的孩子们即便有可能的话，也很少能在他的工作场所见到他。
10. Everyone knows that if he shouts in the vicinity of a wall or a mountainside, an echo will come back. 翻译：大家都知道，假如一个人在墙壁附近或是山腰里大声呼喊，就会产生一个回音。
11. In our new society there is a growing dislike of original, creative men. The manipulated do not understand them; the manipulators fear them. The tidy committee men regard them with horror, knowing that no pigeonholes can be found for them. 解读:主要考虑"tidy"的讽刺语气。
翻译:在现代社会里，人们对开拓型的有创造力的人有一种与日俱增的厌恶情绪。
受人摆布的人不理解他们，摆布别人的人害怕他们。
衣冠楚楚的委员们知道不可能使他们就范，因此怀着恐惧的心理看待他们。
12. These days, it is differences in national regulations, far more than tariffs, that put sand in the wheels of trade between rich countries. 强调句型，put sand in the wheels v.妨碍, 捣乱 当前，是各国管理条例上的差异，而不是关税阻碍了发达国家之间的贸易。
13.As it happens, a razor that is safe in Europe is unlikely to electrocute Americans. So, ask businesses on both sides of the Atlantic, why have two lots of tests where one would do? So......?为直接引语的一种表述方法。
