CLIMATE CHANGE REQUIRES THE WORLD'S ATTENTION
气候变化需要全世界的共同关注
We have known about climate change for decades. There is little doubt that Earth is getting warmer
and warmer (see the graph). A warming ocean and atmosphere along with melting ice and rising sea levels
provide evidence of a dramatic change in the global climate.
我们了解气候变化已经有几十年了。毫无疑问，地球是在变得越来越暖(见表)。海洋和气候变暖
以及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。
In 2013, a lot of people were shocked by a news photo of a dead polar bear that was found on Norway’
s Arctic island of Svalbard. According to 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 body, the bear appeared to have starved and died. Experts claimed that low sea-ice
levels caused by climate change meant that 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.
2013 年，一张关于那威北极岛的斯瓦尔巴群岛上发现一只北极熊死亡的新闻照片，震惊了很多
人。根据发现北极熊尸体的科学家的说法，北极熊只剩下“皮肤和骨头”。一位研究北极熊多年的专
家说，从北极熊尸体的位置看，北极熊似乎饿死了。专家声称，由于气候变化导致海冰面积下降，
这只熊无法像以前那样捕猎海豹，因此它不得不走很远的距离才能找到食物。这个令人震惊的案例
表明，温度升高如何影响地球的生态。
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: 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.
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.
那么，是什么导致全球平均表面温度上升 气候科学家经常提到一个称为“温室效应”的重要气
候过程，它有两个普遍的含义：“自然”温室效应和“人造”温室效应。“自然”温室效应是指太阳
的热量进入大气层，并以短波辐射的形式使地球表面变暖。热量以更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)吸收了部分热量，使地球的气候温暖宜居。没有这个过程，地球将
无法维持生命。然而，“人造”温室效应现在已成为一个大问题。当人们燃烧化石燃料产生大量额外
的温室气体时，更多的热量被困在大气层中，从而引起地球表面温度迅速上升。
There is strong and comprehensive evidence 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. 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。
有充分而全面的证据表明，温度升高导致全世界范围内极端天气和自然灾害增加，不仅造成了
严重的破坏，而且还造成了人员伤亡。气候科学家警告说，如果我们不采取适当的行动，这种变暖
趋势可能会持续下去，并且需要付出更高的代价。事实上，新闻报道经常播出极端暴雨和热浪造成
死亡和经济损失。
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
持续的温室气体排放将导致全球气候进一步变暖和持久变化。这需要全世界人民的关注。政府
需要考虑制定政策，采取适当的行动和措施以少温室气体排放。我们个人也可以通过限制生活方式
产生的二氧化碳量来减少“碳足迹”。抓住每一个机会，对所有人进行全球变暖及其成因和影响的教
育，这是我们的责任，因为这是影响我们地球上所有人最严重的问题。那你会怎么做 语言点

CLIMATE CHANGE REQUIRES THE WORLD'S ATTENTION
气候变化需要全世界的共同关注
We have known about climate change for decades. There is little doubt that Earth is getting warmer
and warmer (see the graph). A warming ocean and atmosphere along with melting ice and rising sea levels
provide evidence of a dramatic change in the global climate.
我们了解气候变化已经有几十年了。毫无疑问，地球是在变得越来越暖(见表)。海洋和气候变暖
以及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。
In 2013, a lot of people were shocked by a news photo of a dead polar bear that was found on Norway’
s Arctic island of Svalbard. According to 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 body, the bear appeared to have starved and died. Experts claimed that low sea-ice
levels caused by climate change meant that 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.
2013 年，一张关于那威北极岛的斯瓦尔巴群岛上发现一只北极熊死亡的新闻照片，震惊了很多
人。根据发现北极熊尸体的科学家的说法，北极熊只剩下“皮肤和骨头”。一位研究北极熊多年的专
家说，从北极熊尸体的位置看，北极熊似乎饿死了。专家声称，由于气候变化导致海冰面积下降，
这只熊无法像以前那样捕猎海豹，因此它不得不走很远的距离才能找到食物。这个令人震惊的案例
表明，温度升高如何影响地球的生态。
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: 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.
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.
那么，是什么导致全球平均表面温度上升 气候科学家经常提到一个称为“温室效应”的重要气
候过程，它有两个普遍的含义：“自然”温室效应和“人造”温室效应。“自然”温室效应是指太阳
的热量进入大气层，并以短波辐射的形式使地球表面变暖。热量以更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)吸收了部分热量，使地球的气候温暖宜居。没有这个过程，地球将
无法维持生命。然而，“人造”温室效应现在已成为一个大问题。当人们燃烧化石燃料产生大量额外
的温室气体时，更多的热量被困在大气层中，从而引起地球表面温度迅速上升。
There is strong and comprehensive evidence 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. 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。
有充分而全面的证据表明，温度升高导致全世界范围内极端天气和自然灾害增加，不仅造成了
严重的破坏，而且还造成了人员伤亡。气候科学家警告说，如果我们不采取适当的行动，这种变暖
趋势可能会持续下去，并且需要付出更高的代价。事实上，新闻报道经常播出极端暴雨和热浪造成
死亡和经济损失。
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
持续的温室气体排放将导致全球气候进一步变暖和持久变化。这需要全世界人民的关注。政府
需要考虑制定政策，采取适当的行动和措施以少温室气体排放。我们个人也可以通过限制生活方式
产生的二氧化碳量来减少“碳足迹”。抓住每一个机会，对所有人进行全球变暖及其成因和影响的教
育，这是我们的责任，因为这是影响我们地球上所有人最严重的问题。那你会怎么做
