2021 年高考真题

B【2021·英语全国甲卷】

Port Lympne Reserve, which runs a breeding (繁育) programme, has welcomed the arrival of a rare black

rhino calf (犀牛幼崽). When the tiny creature arrived on January 31, she became the 40th black rhino to be born at

the reserve. And officials at Port Lympne were delighted with the new arrival, especially as black rhinos are known

for being difficult to breed in captivity (圈养).

Paul Beer, head of rhino section at Port Lympne, said: “Obviously we're all absolutely delighted to welcome

another calf to our black rhino family. She's healthy, strong and already eager to play and explore. Her mother,

Solio, is a first-time mum and she is doing a fantastic job. It's still a little too cold for them to go out into the open,

but as soon as the weather warms up, I have no doubt that the little one will be out and about exploring and playing

every day.”

The adorable female calf is the second black rhino born this year at the reserve, but it is too early to tell if the

calves will make good candidates to be returned to protected areas of the wild. The first rhino to be born at Port

Lympne arrived on January 5 to first-time mother Kisima and weighed about 32kg. His mother, grandmother and

great grandmother were all born at the reserve and still live there.

According to the World Wildlife Fund, the global black rhino population has dropped as low as 5500, giving

the rhinos a “critically endangered” status.

4．Which of the following best describes the breeding programme?

A．Costly. B．Controversial. C．Ambitious. D．Successful.

5．What does Paul Beer say about the new-born rhino?

A．She loves staying with her mother. B．She dislikes outdoor activities.

C．She is in good condition D．She is sensitive to heat.

6．What similar experience do Solio and Kisima have?

A．They had their first born in January. B．They enjoyed exploring new places

C．They lived with their grandmothers. D．They were brought to the reserve young

7．What can be inferred about Porn Lympne Reserve?

A．The rhino section will be open to the public.

B．It aims to control the number of the animals.

C．It will continue to work with the World Wildlife Fund.

D．Some of its rhinos may be sent to the protected wild areas.

【答案】4．D5．C6．A7．D

【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在 Port Lympne 保护区的部分黑犀牛现状。

4．推理判断题。通过文章第一段“she became the 40th black rhino to be born at the reserve (她成为该保护区

出生的第 40 头黑犀牛)”以及文章倒数第二段“His mother, grandmother and great grandmother were all born at

the reserve and still live there. (他的母亲、祖母和曾祖母都出生在保护区，至今仍住在那里)”可知，保护区的

繁育计划使很多黑犀牛成功存活，可推知，这计划是成功的。故选 D项。

5．细节理解题。通过文章第二段“She's healthy, strong and already eager to play and explore. (她很健康，很

强壮，已经渴望玩耍和探索了)”可知，Paul Beer 认为新生的犀牛身体状况很好。故选 C项。

6．细节理解题。通过文章第一段“When the tinv creature arrived on January 31, she became the 40th black

rhino to be born at the reserve. (1 月31 日，当这头小犀牛来到保护区时，她成为了第 40 头在保护区出生的黑

犀牛)”以及文章倒数第二段“The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5 to first-time mother

Kisima and weighed about 32kg. (1 月5日，犀牛妈妈 Kisima 分娩的第一头小犀牛，同时也是第一个出生在

Port Lympne，体重约为 32 公斤)”可知，Solio 和Kisima 的第一个孩子都是在一月份出生的。故选 A项。

7．推理判断题。通过文章倒数第二段“ it is too early to tell if the calves will make good candidates to be

returned to protected areas of the wild (要判断这些小犀牛是否会成为返回野生保护区的好的候选者还为时过

早)”可推知，Pon Lympne 保护区的一些犀牛可能会被送到野生保护区。故选 D项。

C【2021·全国高考乙卷】

You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean

ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong

wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine

their relationship to single-use plastic products.

At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic

waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the

sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source（来源）of

plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and,

because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of Von Wong’s artwork

likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take

centuries to disappear.

In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate（说明） a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a

truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of

volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been

dumped（倾倒） from a truck all at once.

Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.

28．What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for?

A．Beautifying the city he lives in. B．Introducing eco-friendly products.

C．Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D．Reducing garbage on the beach.

29．Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3?

A．To show the difficulty of their recycling.

B．To explain why they are useful.

C．To voice his views on modern art.

D．To find a substitute for them.

30．What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers?

A．Calming. B．Disturbing.

C．Refreshing. D．Challenging.

31．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．Artists’ Opinions on Plastic Safety

B．Media Interest in Contemporary Art

C．Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies

D．Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures

【答案】28．C29．A30．C31．D

【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了艺术家 Benjamin Von Wong 用塑料垃圾制作了一个巨大的雕塑作

品，让人们通过这个雕塑重新审视自己与一次性塑料制品的关系。此外他在 2018 的一件作品“Truckload

of Plastic”说明了每 60 秒，就有一卡车塑料进入海洋。Von Wong 通过用塑料垃圾制造巨型雕塑来唤醒和提

高人们的环保意识。

28．推理判断题。根据第一段“But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von

Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-
