拿真题说:这几条在卷子上长什么样
前四条是理念,后三条是听力、阅读、完形的做法。每一条配一道真题,全是 2025 年新高考 I 卷的原题——2026 年的卷子留给模拟考场,不在这里讲。
一
高考英语是一场英语考试,也是一场智力考试。
拿真题说 · 2025 新高考 I 卷 · 阅读 C 篇 · 第 28 题
Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead.
What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1?
- A. Cars often get stuck on the road.
- B. Traffic accidents occur frequently.
- C. People walk less and drive more.
- D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules.
这道题的单词没有一个难的,可 A 和 B 照样有人选。原文说的是:路上车太多,家长不放心孩子走路上学,改开车送。A「经常堵车」、B「事故频发」,都是从 too much traffic 往前多走了一步——车多不等于堵车;家长担心不安全,也不等于真出了很多事故,第一句还说路上的安全措施改进过。答案是 C:走路的少了,开车的多了。
词都认识也会错,错在推理上。原文说到哪儿,答案就停在哪儿——这就是「智力考试」的那一半。

二
英语要考高分,既要英语好,也要有考试技巧。
拿真题说 · 2025 新高考 I 卷 · 阅读 B 篇 · 第 26 题
The results were staggering. The students took on diverse topics and turned in stories, 10 to 20 pages each, with characters that broadened my view and touched my heart.
What does the underlined word “staggering” mean?
- A. Mixed.
- B. Amazing.
- C. Similar.
- D. Disturbing.
staggering 不认识,是英语的事;可下一句就在解释它——这是技巧:上下文找线索。学生交上来 10 到 20 页的故事,人物 broadened my view and touched my heart,能让老师这样说的结果,只能是 Amazing。
反过来,要是 broadened my view、touched my heart 也读不懂,技巧就无从下手。
英语是底子,技巧是方法:要考高分,两样都要。

中文和英文是两种很不一样的语言,把中英文的不同拿来对比,对学英语很有帮助。
拿真题说 · 2025 新高考 I 卷 · 语法填空(围棋展)
An exhibition … is featuring artwork inspired by Go, or weiqi in Chinese, which originated in China more than 4,000 years ago.
第 56 空。中文把修饰语放在名词前面:「起源于四千多年前中国的围棋」;英文把长修饰语放到名词后面,用 which 接上。
The players’ personalities are revealed during the game …
第 60 空。中文说「下棋时,性格会显露出来」,动词不用变;英文里性格是「被显露」的,要用被动,主语是复数,用 are。
Go is one of the earliest binary-based games.
第 57 空。中文「最早的游戏之一」没有冠词;英文最高级前面要 the。
发音和文字也是这样。中文一个字一个音节,字字分开;英文的辅音会和后面的元音连着读(an hour 听着像 a-nour)。汉字看字形知道意思,英文字母记的是声音:读得准,拼写也就有了线索。
中文不标的地方,往往就是英文要考的地方:冠词、单复数、时态、被动、修饰语放在哪儿。做题时问自己一句:这里中文是不是省掉了什么?

学英语,语法极其重要:我们没有可以沉浸其中的语言环境,没法靠泡在里面养出语感。
拿真题说 · 2025 新高考 I 卷 · 语法填空 · 第 58 空
“We hope ___ (present) the rather abstract Go game and AI in a visual context, and initiate dialogues with minimalist art, conceptual art and expressionism.”
母语者一读就知道是 hope to present——那是从小泡出来的耳朵。我们没有那样的环境,就靠语法一步一步推:这句的谓语已经是 hope;一个句子只能有一个谓语,第二个动词得变成非谓语;hope 后面接 to do——to present。后面的 initiate 和它并列,省掉了 to。
语法推出来的,和语感听出来的,是同一个答案。

听力:提高的关键有两条——一是自己能把音发准,二是抓住关键词、推出答案。
拿真题说 · 2025 新高考 I 卷 · 听力 · 第 7 题
What time does school finish on Wednesdays?
- A. At 2:00 pm.
- B. At 2:30 pm.
- C. At 3:30 pm.
The students aren’t dismissed until 3:30. … Today is Wednesday. … Students are dismissed an hour and a half earlier on Wednesdays.
抓住关键词、推出答案
题干的关键词是 Wednesdays 和 finish。录音里 finish 换了个说法——dismissed,这叫同义替换。先听到平时 3:30 放学,再听到周三 an hour and a half earlier:往前推一个半小时,2:00。直接选听到的 3:30,就掉进了数字陷阱。
自己能把音发准
an hour and a half 在录音里连成一串,听着像 a-nau-er-ran-da-half。中文一个字一个音节,我们读英语也习惯一个词一个词地蹦;自己从没这样连着读过,耳朵就认不出这一串。thirty 和 thirteen 也是:重音一个在前(THIR-ty),一个在后(thir-TEEN)。
自己读得准,才听得出来。

阅读理解:技巧很重要,a)看每段首句猜测大意,b)按图索骥找答案,c)上下文找线索。
拿真题说 · 2025 新高考 I 卷 · 阅读 C 篇
a)看每段首句猜测大意
- While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children.
- Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these.
- Life on city streets started to change decades ago.
- Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car.
- We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs.
五句连起来:走路的孩子少了 → 两位作者对此不满 → 城市几十年前就开始变了 → 西方城市大多围着汽车重新设计 → 我们修路图快,却没算真正的代价。第 31 题问最好的标题,答案 Why the Rush? 就藏在最后一段首句的 rush through 里。
b)按图索骥找答案
第 29 题问 the Canadian journalist and other campaigners 想做什么。拿 Canadian journalist 这张「图」去原文里找,落在第三段:
Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park.
c)上下文找线索
答案不在这一句,在她接下来说的话里:
Jane Jacobs called on her mayor to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.”
一个像样的、能住的地方——A. Keep their cities livable。

完形填空:和上面一样,技巧很重要,a)看每段首句猜测大意,b)按图索骥找答案,c)上下文找线索。
拿真题说 · 2025 新高考 I 卷 · 完形填空
a)看每段首句猜测大意
- One August afternoon, I sat in my kitchen staring at a glass vase that hadn’t seen daylight since my wedding.
- I took a picture of the vase and posted it online, for $10.
- ___, I posted more.
- I sit in my apartment today, loving each of the ___ that share our small space.
四句连起来,故事就有了:搬家前清东西 → 把旧花瓶放到网上 → 越发越多 → 如今住进公寓,心满意足。第 42 空问他们要搬去哪里(We had decided on key items for the ___ we were moving to in town):hotel、office、cottage、apartment——第四段的首句已经说了,apartment。
b)按图索骥找答案
第 46 空:A couple of messages came in, one wanting additional ___。买家想要更多的什么?顺着这张「图」往回找:I took a picture of the vase and posted it online——photos。
c)上下文找线索
第 44 空:That left a house still ___ with things。第一段说,这个家是一家人 23 年一点点 filling up 起来的——屋里还「塞满」了东西:stuffed。
