雅思阅读基础长难句

以下是一些雅思阅读中常见的长难句：

1. 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。

2. Soon he would also discover a number of other remarkable facts about how bees communicate and， in doing so， revolutionize the study of animal behavior generally. (剑4，General Training Test B section 3)
   分析：本句的主句为“Soon he would also discover a number of other remarkable facts about how bees communicate and revolutionize the study of animal behavior generally”；“about how bees communicate”为about引导的宾语从句，做介词about的宾语。

3. In 1972, a team of American archaeologists working in northern Peru unearthed the remnants of some mysterious ancient scrolls that turned out to be the oldest known examples of a type of text that is still very popular among ancient and modern scribes throughout the Incan Empire and beyond. (剑7，Reading Passage 2)
   分析：本句的主句为“a team of American archaeologists unearthed the remnants of some mysterious ancient scrolls”；“working in northern Peru”为现在分词做定语，修饰archaeologists；“that turned out to be the oldest known examples of a type of text that is still very popular among ancient and modern scribes throughout the Incan Empire and beyond”为that引导的定语从句，做scrolls的定语，关系词在定语从句中做主语，因此被省掉。
