长句子在考研英语中经常出现在哪些地方呢？一个是阅读理解，一个是英译汉，这其中英译汉对于考生的要求比较宽泛，只要你能够把给出的句子的大体意思回答出来，阅卷老师了解到你的确看懂了这个句子，你就能得到一定的分值，而且英译汉也不以长句子为难点。在此提醒考生，真正让长句子得以“兴风作浪”的地方，其实是考研英语的阅读理解部分，这才是它的“花果山”。
长句子因何成难点
什么是长句子？在考研英语中，简单的句子被称为单句，它有一套完整的主谓宾结构，而长句子就是包含了很多单句，且主谓宾结构依然完整的句子。要想理解文章的总体结构，就要从单句之间、段落之间的关系入手，而单句与段落之间的衔接点在哪里呢？就是长句子。单句构成了长句，而长句构成了段落，所以长句子成为考研阅读理解乃至整个考研英语的难点，就见怪不怪了。
理解作者的意图、观点或态度
除了长句子，我们再来看阅读理解中的其他“绊脚石”。阅读理解中有许多涉及作者观点的问题，但如果你看文章的话，可能在文章中这部分内容表述得并不明显。考研英语阅读理解的文章一般都是外国高端读物中的文献，所以当然不会简单地用“YES”或“NO”来表明观点态度，这就需要大家从字里行间推敲作者的写作意图，比如文章中说作者不认为A的观点是正确的，那么如果题目中文作者是否喜欢A的做法，那自然是不喜欢。我们在很多真题当中都能够看到这种出题思路，有时出题人还喜欢用“否定之否定”的方法出题，来考察考生是否能真正理解这篇文章，因此大家在做题时一定要谨慎推敲，不论是问题还是文章，都要细究其根本。
