课文长难句回顾 Various criteria have been devised for dividing the atmosphere into layers. This division can be based on the nature of the vertical temperature profile, on the gaseous composition of the air at different altitudes, and the effect of the atmosphere on aircraft at different altitudes, etc. 人们设计了各种标准来将大气分层。 这种划分可以根据垂直温度剖面的性质、 不同高度的空 气的气体组成、不同高度的空气对飞机的影响等。 The oceans take up large amounts of CO2, about half the amount released by fossil fuel combustion. It is expected that this fraction will diminish with the passing decades whereas the total mass of CO2 released will increase, at least through the early part of the next century. 海洋吸收了大量的二氧化碳，大约是化石燃料燃烧释放量的一半。预计在过去的几十年里， 二氧化碳的排放量将会减少，而二氧化碳的总量将会增加，至少在下个世纪初期是如此。 Ozone (O3), another important, highly variable gas, occurs mostly at upper altitudes, but it is also found in urban localities having a great deal of industry and automotive traffic and a generous supply of sunshine. 臭氧 (O3) 是另一种重要的高度可变的气体， 主要生成在海拔较高的地方， 但在城市地区也有 大量的工业和汽车交通，以及大量的阳光也经常被发现。 Man is reversing millions of years of natural evolution by putting into the atmosphere carbon that had been sequestered over the ages as fossil fuels. 人类正通过向大气中排放化石能源燃烧产生的碳，从而逆转了数百万年的自然进化。 More of the sun ’radiations is visible light, which passes through the atmosphere largely undeterred. When the radiation strikes the earth, it warms the surface, which then radiates the heat as infrared radiation. However, atmospheric CO2, water vapor, and some other gases absorb the infrared radiation rather than allow it to pass undeterredly through the atmosphere to space. Because the atmosphere traps the heat and warms the earth in a manner somewhat analogous to the glass panels of a greenhouse, this phenomenon is generally known as the “ 大部分的太阳辐射是可见光， 它们穿过大气时几乎没有被阻止。 当辐射
