I could relate to your problem because I faced the same difficulty when I started my preparation.

I would advice you to try out these methods:

1. If you are not a native speaker, try to translate the argument into your native language.
2. Explain yourself as if you were explaining a kid.
3. Separate Premise and conclusion. Once you separate them, you have the idea of where the argument is going.

Hope this Helps.
