One possibility is to perform a pilot and see which questions co-vary. This can help identify questions which are perceived to answer the same thing and reduce them down to one. Having said that, there might be times when repeating a question (e.g., an L-score) is necessary.
In terms of examples, try Eysenck's EPQ questionnaire - the full version has lots of questions and is frankly a bore to go through so maybe it's not so good. Another strategy might be to break questions down into sections so that users can pace themselves. Sometimes a terse explanation about each section's purpose might be useful if that doesn't compromise the design. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
