According to
17、the scientists who found its dead body,all that remained of the polar bear was “skin and bones ” An expert who has studied polar bears for many years said that from the position of its dead body3,the bear appeared to have starved and died. Experts claimed that low sea ice levels caused by climate ch

Climate scientists often mention a key climate process called the “greenhouse effect”,which has two common meanings4: the “natural” greenhouse effect and the “man- made” greenhouse effect. The “natural” greenhouse effect refers to the fact that heat from
20、 the sun enters the atmosphere and warms Earths surface as short- wave radiation5The 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 Earths climate warm and habitable 21 . Without this proces
21、s,Earth could not sustain 22 life. However,the “manmade” greenhouse effect has now become a big problem. When people produce huge amounts of extra 23 greenhouse gases by burning fossil 24 fuels,more heat energy is trapped in 25 the atmosphere and causes Earths surface temperature to rise quickly. 4c

It is our responsibility to seize 38 every opportunity to educate everyone about global warming,along with its causes and impacts,beca
26、use this is the most serious issue affecting all of us on this planet. So what will you do to help? 译文参考 气候变化需要全 世界的关注 我们已经知道气候变化几十年了。 毫无疑问, 地球正变得越来越 暖和(如图所示)。海洋和大气的变暖,冰的融化和海平面的上升,为 全球气候的剧烈变化提供了证据。 2013 年,挪威北极斯瓦尔巴特岛发现一只北极熊死亡的新闻照片, 令很多人震惊。据发现其尸体的科学家称,北极熊仅存的只是“皮包骨 头”。一位研究北极熊多年的专家说,从北极熊尸体的位置来看,北极 熊似乎是饿
27、死的。专家称,由于气候变化导致的海洋冰川位置低意味着 这只熊不能像以前那样捕猎海豹, 因此它必须走更远的距离才能找到食 物。这一令人担忧的案例表明,温度的升高是如何影响地球生态的。 那么是什么导致了全球平均地表温度的上升呢?气候学家经常提到一个 关键的过程,叫作“温室效应” ,它有两个共同的含义: “自然”温室效应和 “人为”温室效应。 “自然”温室效应是指太阳产生的热量以短波辐射的形式 进入大气并使地球表面变暖。热量以较长的波长释放回太空。大气层中的温 室气体,如甲烷和二氧化碳,捕获了一些热量,保持了地球气候的温暖和宜 居。没有这个过程,地球就无法维持生命。然而, “人为”的温室效应现在已
28、经成为一个大问题。当人们通过燃烧化石燃料产生大量额外的温室气体时, 更多的热能被困在大气中,导致地球表面温度迅速上升。 有确凿而全面的证据表明, 气温上升导致全球极端天气和自然灾 害增多, 不仅造成严重破坏, 而且造成人员伤亡。 气候科学家警告说, 如果我们不采取适当的行动, 这种变暖趋势可能会继续下去, 并将付 出更高的代价。 事实上, 有关极端暴雨和热浪造成死亡和经济损失的 新闻报道经常播出。 温室气体排放量的持续增加将导致进一步变暖和全球气候的长 期变化。这需要全世界人民的关注。各国政府需要考虑制定政策,采 取适当行动和措施减少温室气体排放。 我们作为个人也可以通过限制 我们生活方式产生的二氧化碳量来减少我们的“碳足迹” 。我们有责 任抓住每一个机会, 教育大家认识全球变暖及其原因和影响, 因为全 球变暖是影响我们地球上所有人的最严重问题。 那么你会做些什么来 帮忙呢
