There is little doubt that Earth is getting warmer and warmer (see the graph②).[1] A warming ocean and atmosphere③ along with melting④ ice and rising sea levels provide evidence⑤ of a dramatic⑥ change in the global climate.[1]There is no doubt that...……不容置疑的。In 2013,a lot of people were shocked by a news photo of a dead polar bear that was found on[2] Norway's Arctic island of Svalbard⑦. According to the scientists who found its dead body,all that remained of the polar bear was “skin and bones⑧”.An expert who has studied polar bears for many years said that from the position of its dead body[3],the bear appeared to have starved⑨ and died. Experts claimed⑩ that low sea-ice levels caused by climate change meant the bear could not hunt seals as before,so it had to travel greater distances in order to find food. This alarming? case showed how the increase in temperature had an impact on? Earth's ecology?.[2]that引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,修飾a dead bear。[3]who引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句修飾an expert;that引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句。Then what is causing the increase in the global average? surface temperature? Climate scientists often mention a key climate process called the “greenhouse effect”,which has two common meanings[4]: the “natural” greenhouse effect and the “man-made” greenhouse effect. The “natural” greenhouse effect refers to?the fact that heat from the sun enters the atmosphere and warms Earth's surface as short-wave? radiation[5].The heat is released? back into space at longer wave lengths?. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere,such as methane? and carbon dioxide?,trap some of the heat,keeping Earth's climate warm and habitable. Without this process,Earth could not sustain life. However,the “man-made” greenhouse effect has now become a big problem. When people produce huge amounts of extra greenhouse gases by burning fossil fuels,more heat energy is trapped in the atmosphere and causes Earth's surface temperature to rise quickly.[4]called...是過(guò)去分詞短語(yǔ)作定語(yǔ);which引導(dǎo)非限定性定語(yǔ)從句。[5]that引導(dǎo)同位語(yǔ)從句,解釋the fact。There is strong and comprehensiveevidence that the rise in temperature has led to an increase in extreme weather and natural disasters worldwide,not only causing serious damage,but also costing human lives[6].Climate scientists have warned that if we do not take appropriate actions,this warming trend will probably continue and there will be a higher price to pay. In fact,news reports are frequently broadcast about extreme rainstorms and heatwaves causing deaths and economic losses.[6]that引導(dǎo)同位語(yǔ)從句,解釋evidence;causing和costing在句中作結(jié)果狀語(yǔ)。Continued greenhouse gas emissions will result in further warming and long-lasting changes to the global climate. This requires the attention of people all over the world. Governments need to consider making policies and taking appropriate actions and measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We as individuals can also reduce our “carbon footprint” by restricting the amount of carbon dioxide our lifestyles produce. It is our responsibility to seize every opportunity to educate everyone about global warming,along with its causes and impacts,because this is the most serious issue affecting all of us on this planet. So what will you do to help?譯文參考氣候變化需要全世界的關(guān)注我們已經(jīng)知道氣候變化幾十年了。毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),地球正變得越來(lái)越暖和(如圖所示)。海洋和大氣的變暖,冰的融化和海平面的上升,為全球氣候的劇烈變化提供了證據(jù)。2013年,挪威北極斯瓦爾巴特島發(fā)現(xiàn)一只北極熊死亡的新聞?wù)掌?/span>,令很多人震驚。據(jù)發(fā)現(xiàn)其尸體的科學(xué)家稱,北極熊僅存的只是“皮包骨頭”。一位研究北極熊多年的專家說(shuō),從北極熊尸體的位置來(lái)看,北極熊似乎是餓死的。專家稱,由于氣候變化導(dǎo)致的海洋冰川位置低意味著這只熊不能像以前那樣捕獵海豹,因此它必須走更遠(yuǎn)的距離才能找到食物。這一令人擔(dān)憂的案例表明,溫度的升高是如何影響地球生態(tài)的。那么是什么導(dǎo)致了全球平均地表溫度的上升呢?氣候?qū)W家經(jīng)常提到一個(gè)關(guān)鍵的過(guò)程,叫作“溫室效應(yīng)”,它有兩個(gè)共同的含義:“自然”溫室效應(yīng)和“人為”溫室效應(yīng)。“自然”溫室效應(yīng)是指太陽(yáng)產(chǎn)生的熱量以短波輻射的形式進(jìn)入大氣并使地球表面變暖。熱量以較長(zhǎng)的波長(zhǎng)釋放回太空。大氣層中的溫室氣體,如甲烷和二氧化碳,捕獲了一些熱量,保持了地球氣候的溫暖和宜居。沒(méi)有這個(gè)過(guò)程,地球就無(wú)法維持生命。然而,“人為”的溫室效應(yīng)現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)成為一個(gè)大問(wèn)題。當(dāng)人們通過(guò)燃燒化石燃料產(chǎn)生大量額外的溫室氣體時(shí),更多的熱能被困在大氣中,導(dǎo)致地球表面溫度迅速上升。有確鑿而全面的證據(jù)表明,氣溫上升導(dǎo)致全球極端天氣和自然災(zāi)害增多,不僅造成嚴(yán)重破壞,而且造成人員傷亡。氣候科學(xué)家警告說(shuō),如果我們不采取適當(dāng)?shù)男袆?dòng),這種變暖趨勢(shì)可能會(huì)繼續(xù)下去,并將付出更高的代價(jià)。事實(shí)上,有關(guān)極端暴雨和熱浪造成死亡和經(jīng)濟(jì)損失的新聞報(bào)道經(jīng)常播出。溫室氣體排放量的持續(xù)增加將導(dǎo)致進(jìn)一步變暖和全球氣候的長(zhǎng)期變化。這需要全世界人民的關(guān)注。各國(guó)政府需要考慮制定政策,采取適當(dāng)行動(dòng)和措施減少溫室氣體排放。我們作為個(gè)人也可以通過(guò)限制我們生活方式產(chǎn)生的二氧化碳量來(lái)減少我們的“碳足跡”。我們有責(zé)任抓住每一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì),教育大家認(rèn)識(shí)全球變暖及其原因和影響,因?yàn)槿蜃兣怯绊懳覀兊厍蛏纤腥说淖顕?yán)重問(wèn)題。那么你會(huì)做些什么來(lái)幫忙呢?
