1．Expertsclaimedthatlowseaicelevelscausedbyclimatechangemeantthebearcouldnothuntsealsasbefore，soithadtotravelgreaterdistancesinordertofindfood.

[句式分析]　该句为复合句。

Expertsclaimed是主句；that引导宾语从句，作claimed的宾语；该宾语从句中的thebearcouldnothuntsealsasbefore也是宾语从句，作meant的宾语；causedbyclimatechange是过去分词作后置定语，修饰lowseaicelevels；so连接的是并列句。

[自主翻译]　专家称，气候变化导致的海冰降低意味着北极熊不能像以前那样猎取海豹了，所以它不得不走更远的距离去寻找食物。

2．Thereisstrongandcomprehensiveevidencethattheriseintemperaturehasledtoanincreaseinextremeweatherandnaturaldisastersworldwide，notonlycausingseriousdamage，butalsocostinghumanlives.

[句式分析]　该句为复合句。

Thereisstrongandcomprehensiveevidence是主句；that引导同位语从句；notonly...butalso...不但……而且……，在此处连接两个现在分词作结果状语。

[自主翻译]　有充分和详尽的证据表明：

气温的上升导致了全球范围内极端天气和自然灾害的增加，不但造成了严重的破坏，而且还损害了很多人的生命。

3．Climatescientistshavewarnedthatifwedonottakeappropriateactions，thiswarmingtrendwillprobablycontinueandtherewillbeahigherpricetopay.

[句式分析]　此句是复合句。

Climatescientistshavewarned是主句；that引导宾语从句；if引导条件状语从句。

[自主翻译]　气候专家警告说，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，并付出更高的代价。

4．Itisourresponsibilitytoseizeeveryopportunitytoeducateeveryoneaboutglobalwarming，alongwithitscausesandimpacts，becausethisisthemostseriousissueaffectingallofusonthisplanet.

[句式分析]　此句是复合句。

because引导原因状语从句；it是形式主语，真正的主语是toseizeeveryopportunity...；affectingallofusonthisplanet是现在分词作后置定语，修饰issue。

[自主翻译]　抓住每个机会来教育大家了解全球变暖及其原因和影响的知识是我们的责任，因为这是影响地球上所有人的最严重的问题。
