歷屆考研英語（二）真題（2025-2026）【作者：羽毛蛇】【使用說明】本人親身經(jīng)歷了考研的旅途，深對于英語（二），研友們最缺的就是真題，因為專碩產(chǎn)生不久，參考人數(shù)卻呈爆發(fā)式增長；而相對英語（一），市面上不易買到英語（二）的真題資料，給考生帶來不便。即使是網(wǎng)上的一些版本也是七拼八湊，錯誤連篇。本著傳承愛心的理念，本人特整理2025-2026年真題及參考答案，供學弟學妹們復習。本版本真題的一大特點是完全按照考研真題的格式、字體、字號、行間距排版，每套真題12頁，建議使用時采用A4紙雙面印刷，以最大限度模擬考場實際效果。（市面上的真題大多為了節(jié)約紙張，縮小了字體和行間距，和考場真題有一定差距，若長期用市面版本做練習，上了考場可能不習慣：例如完型填空，考場真題第一頁是完型文章，選項一般從第二頁開始，需要翻頁，給考生造成不便，考生需提前習慣這種不便！而市面上的真題大多文章選項就在一頁，做習慣了反而會不利于考場發(fā)揮！深有體會，切記切記）對于真題的使用方法，有以下幾點需要說明：不要盲目做真題！那是浪費資源！英語（二）開考以來就這四套真題，希望大家節(jié)約使用！其他的模擬題、英語（一）真題、樣題都沒這四套值價！不信對比著做幾套就知區(qū)別！專碩真題是寶藏，它就是我們確切意義上的指南！建議大家采用一下介紹的“六遍法”，以最大限度榨干真題價值?。勘檫m當間隔一段時間效果會更好）第一遍：嚴格按照考試時間，創(chuàng)造最貼近考試的環(huán)境來完成真題。第二遍：摘抄生詞，長句進行記憶分析，進一步熟悉文章，正面分析正確選擇項，使自己的思路初步貼近出題人的思路?？创鸢傅臅r候最好不要看相關的分析，因為這樣可能會讓自己的思路跟著出書人跑。另外，你需要對出的題目有一個分類了，例如細節(jié)題目，作者態(tài)度題目，例證題目，文章主旨題目等等，為以后的進一步總結應對策略打下基礎。第三遍：反面分析錯誤選擇項（至關重要?。┲饕獞撝饕獜?個方面著手：對比正確選項和錯誤選項，找出其差異所在。在知道了為什么正確答案為什么正確的基礎上找出錯誤的原因，出題人為什么要用這個錯誤選項來迷惑我們——用的是偷換概念還是以小代大？同意互換的修飾成分是否遺漏？作者觀點題目答案給的是不是有出題人主觀傾向以及這種傾向是不是可以作為規(guī)律來對待？等等等等。二、把錯誤選擇項帶到原文中，看看出題人是怎么把作者意圖和事實歪曲的。關于這點你可以分析完10篇來一個總結，你會很驚奇的發(fā)現(xiàn)：原來每道題目錯誤選項的來路是這么的相似！以后再見到這種錯誤選項的時候很大程度上你就能感覺到什么應該是正確的什么是錯誤的了（這就是你和出題人思路的接近過程）。三、把握絕對和相對的關系，找出錯誤選項代表性的詞匯。很多輔導班老師會這么告訴你：包含some，perhaps，appromately，about，seems等詞匯的選擇項一般都是正確的，而包含certainly，extremely等絕對的一般都是錯誤的。這個可以當成一個一般的原則來應用，但是我要求你們并不是簡單的把這類詞匯給看到然后就直接的判斷出其正確性或者錯誤性，我們現(xiàn)在是打基礎，必須對自己從嚴要求，我們應該這樣做：找出代表性詞匯后進行匯總，根據(jù)肯定否定的語氣輕重來把它們進行排序，然后回到題目看看出題目的人是怎么把作者不太肯定的語氣給“硬化”的（老外很少說絕對，中國人經(jīng)常說絕對）。四、把自己當成出題人來思考（換位思考）。你需要把自己放到出題人的角度來對待錯誤選項，因為錯誤選項都是很熟悉中國人思維的專家出的，因此，你如果單純的從自己（考生）的角度思考錯誤選擇項，很可能會百思不得其解，而在把我原文的基礎之上把自己看成出題人情況就會很不同。這是提高你考試能力的一個很重要的方法，到你經(jīng)過一系列的訓練，能從出題人的思路把握選擇項的時候，你就是真正的知彼知己，從而就很容易的達到百戰(zhàn)不殆了。第四遍：回到文章中去，把自己上一遍的思路“代入”到文章中去，分析一下出題人是怎樣把題目出出來的，具體思考以下幾個問題：一、體會出題人為什么會在這個地方出題目而不在其他地方出題目？二、其它地方是不是可以出題目？三、如果讓你出題目你會怎樣來出？四、自己試著出上幾道題目，比較一下和出題人的差距，進一步體會出題人出題目的把戲。第五遍：再次像第一遍那樣去做題目，總結出題技巧以及自己的應對策略。當然，答案你已經(jīng)非常清楚了，這里只是讓你再次體驗一下真題的“魅力”所在?？偨Y出題技巧并不是讓你將來有可能去出題目，只是再此深化貼近出題人思維方式這個思路，爭取達到自己看到一篇文章在看題目之前就大致知道體會出在什么地方（完全可以達到）。應試策略和前面幾遍的分析是分不開的，前面的工作做好了，你就是不進行應試策略的專門總結也沒有問題，例如例證題目，你完全可以自己就總結出來90%向上，10%向下找答案的思路等等。第六遍：這一遍選擇應用，首先，可以適當做一點市場上的模擬試題應用下自己總結出來的方法，看一下是不是自己的思路和出書人的差不多，不一樣完全沒有關系，因為到現(xiàn)在你的試題研究的水平可能比出書人還要高，你的思路更加貼近將來的06年真題！其次，適當?shù)倪x用自己認為比較好的模擬試題，你可以在做完題目之后用挑剔的木管來“修正”它們，進一步使自己的應試技巧和策略得到深化。最后給大家一點個人的建議：英語沒必要報輔導班，尤其是專碩英語，靠自己才是王道！雖然輔導班天花亂墜的宣傳臺詞催生了如火如荼的考研經(jīng)濟，但就我個人的經(jīng)歷來說，不要太指望輔導班。認真研究著幾套真題，再歸納聯(lián)系一下各類型的作文，考研英語沒問題的！預祝大家取得好成績，并在考研路上有所收獲！2025年全國碩士研究生入學統(tǒng)一考試(英語二)試題SectionIUseof
