THE SIXTH EXTINCTION
Extinctions, where entire species are wiped out①, are not unusual②in our Earth's history.In fact,over 90 percent of all species that ever lived are now extinct.In the last 500 million years,there have been five times when life on Earth has almost ended.These include the third mass extinction, known as the “Great Dying”,which killed 90% to 96% of all species.[画线部分中“known as the‘Great Dying’”为过去分词短语作后置定语,与which引导的非限制性定语从句共同修饰the third mass extinction。]And the fifth event, which occurred 66 million years ago,caused the
原文呈现
death of the dinosaurs.The reasons for extinctions are varied③.According to scientists, they include volcanic eruptions④,asteroids⑤ hitting the Earth from space,[v.ing复合结构作include的宾语,下文中的“forests being destroyed”也是同样的结构。]changes in sea levels,the decrease⑥ of the oxygen content of the sea and global warming. Many scientists say we are now entering the Earth's sixth mass extinction. This time, human activity will be to blame⑦.
原文呈现
Although it is not unusual for species to die out naturally, the rate⑧ at which this is now happening[“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句,修饰the rate。介词at的选用是考虑到与rate搭配。] is cause for concern⑨.A 2015 study by scientists who were based at⑩ Brown University and Duke University in the US, looked at⑪ how quickly species die out due to natural causes, that is, the “background extinction rate”.They found that human activity is causing species to die out 1,000 times faster than normal.There is a long list of reasons why so many species are dying out:[why引导的定语从句,修饰reasons,why在从句中作状语。]air and water pollution, forests being destroyed,factory farming⑫ and overfishing⑬.It is clear that human activity has negatively affected⑭ all other species on Earth, including animals and plants.
原文呈现
If a sixth mass extinction occurs,[If引导的条件状语从句]scientists who have studied the issue[who引导的定语从句,修饰scientists] believe that up to three quarters of all species on Earth could die out.Of course, as we humans depend on so many species for our survival⑮ ,we would also be at risk⑯ of dying out.Our world and our lives depend on the balance in nature between animals and plants.Without forests, we would have no air to breathe, and without clean water we would be unable to survive.[该句为含蓄条件句。介词短语Without forests和without clean water相当于条件,“we would have no air to breathe”和“we would be unable to survive”表现与现在事实相反的假设。]Can a sixth extinction be avoided⑰? Experts say that it is
原文呈现
not yet too late, if we take action⑱ now.This would mean we have to significantly change the way we live.For example, we need to take steps to save endangered⑲ species,including setting up⑳ special areas where plants and animals can be protected. We need to change how we work and travel by using cleaner, more natural sources of energy, such as wind and solareq \o(○,\s\up17(21)) energy.We also need to improve our farming methods to reduce water, air and land pollution.In shorteq \o(○,\s\up17(22)),if we want to survive, we need to stop destroying the planet that we live on and start to protect it.

Case Study
The Black Robin
Black robins are the birds that humans saved from extinction.In 1980, there were only five black robins left in the world.They all lived on a small island off the coast of New Zealand.Only one of those birds, a female called Old Blue, was able to lay eggseq \o(○,\s\up17(23)). Wildlife workers began a programmeeq \o(○,\s\up17(24))for raisingeq \o(○,\s\up17(25)) black robin chicks.They protected Old Blue's eggs, helped them to hatcheq \o(○,\s\up17(26)),and took care of the chicks.Thanks to their efforts, there are now more than 250 black robins, and the population is spreading. To help them survive,people are restoringeq \o(○,\s\up17(27)) their habitatseq \o(○,\s\up17(28)) and removing small animals that hunt them, such as mice and cats from the islands where they live.
参考译文
第六次灭绝
物种灭绝,即整个物种的完全消失,在地球的历史上并不罕见。事实上,曾经存在的物种中90%以上现在都已经灭绝。在过去的五亿年中,地球上出现过五次生物几乎全部灭绝的情况。这其中包括被称为“大灭绝”的第三次灭绝,那期间90%至96%的物种灭亡了。6 600万年前发生的第五次灭绝导致了恐龙的灭亡。灭绝的原因各不相同。科学家认为原因包括火山爆发、小行星从太空撞击地球、海平面变化、海洋含氧量下降和全球变暖。许多科学家认为地球的第六次大灭绝即将来临。这次,人类活动是肇因。
参考译文
虽然物种的自然灭绝并不罕见,但现在灭绝发生的速度让人担忧。2015年美国布朗大学和杜克大学的科学家进行的一项研究,调查了物种因自然原因灭亡的速度,即“背景灭绝率”。他们发现人类活动导致物种灭亡的速度比正常情况快1 000倍。导致这么多物种正在消亡的原因有很多:空气和水污染、森林被毁、工厂化养殖和过度捕捞。显然,人类活动对地球上所有其他物种产生了负面影响,包括动物和植物。
研究该问题的科学家们相信,如果发生第六次大灭绝,地球上多达四分之三的物种有可能灭绝。当然,由于人类的生存依赖很多物种,我们也会有灭绝的危险。我们的世界和我们的生命依赖于动植物之间的自然平衡。没有森林,我们就不能呼吸空气;没有干净的水,我们将无法生存。
参考译文
第六次灭绝可以避免吗?专家说,如果我们现在采取行动还为时不晚。这意味着我们必须极大地改变生活方式。例如,我们要采取措施拯救濒临灭绝的物种,包括建立动植物的特殊保护区。通过使用更清洁、更自然的能源来改变我们的工作和出行方式,例如风能和太阳能。我们还需要改进耕作方式,减少水、空气和土地污染。简言之,我们如果想要生存,就需要停止破坏我们生活的地球并开始保护它。

案例研究
黑知更鸟
黑知更鸟是人类从灭绝危机中拯救出来的鸟类。1980年,世界上只剩下五只黑知更鸟。它们都栖息在新西兰海岸附近的一个小岛上,其中只有一只名叫“老蓝”的雌鸟能够产卵。野生动物工作者开始了一项黑知更鸟繁育计划。他们保护“老蓝”的蛋,帮助孵化,并照顾幼鸟。多亏他们的努力,现在黑知更鸟已超过250只,而且数量还在增加。为了帮助它们生存,人们正在恢复黑知更鸟的栖息地并迁移捕杀它们的小动物,例如它们居住的岛上的老鼠和猫。

(1)“A+be动词/谓语动词+倍数+as+形容词/副词原级+as+B”,表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。
(2)“A+be动词/谓语动词+倍数+形容词/副词比较级+than+B”,表示“A比B大(长、高、宽等)多少倍”。
