Giza doesn't really support sentences longer than 100 words- you can
change the limit in the code, but some of the models will underflow
and very strange things will happen.  Also, using very long sentences
is extremely slow and the word alignments are usually quite poor.

You might try looking at the command the moses's
train-factored-phrase-model.perl invokes as a starting point.  You can
set -m1iterations to whatever you want and the other models to 0
iterations if you just want model 1.
