22、”，主句用现在完成时态。译文参考亚马孙雨林：自然宝库欢迎来到这片丛林，这是一片绿色的海洋，到处都可以听到动物发出的声音。这是亚马孙雨林。作为世界上最大的热带雨林，它在维持地球生态系统的良好平衡方面发挥着重要作用。亚马孙雨林横跨南美大陆的八个国家，包括巴西、秘鲁以及法国的一个海外地区。亚马孙雨林面积约600万平方公里，相当于中国面积的一半以上。亚马孙雨林得名于亚马孙河。亚马孙河接近6 400千米，比长江还长约100千米。从山区流到海洋，这条河支撑着许多不同的生态系统。它们使这个地区拥有地球上最丰富的生物多样性：世界上已知的物种有十分之一在这里能够被发现。在我们已知的39万种植物中，有4万多种能在
23、亚马孙雨林中找到。高大而古老的巴西坚果树出产我们可以吃的坚果；这些睡莲大得可以让人躺在上面。雨林的不同层次使种类多到难以置信的野生动植物得以生存。在底部，有一个地表下的根系。在那之上是在黑暗的雨林地面上的大量落叶。再往上的一层是长着大叶的较矮的植物。然后是高耸而古老的阔叶树，最后是离地面好几米高的最高树木的树梢。雨林的每一层都形成了自己的小世界，成为各种生物的家园。1 300多种鸟类和400多种哺乳动物藏身于亚马孙雨林的植物中。这只美洲豹就是一个例子。它长着一身带黑色斑点的黄褐色的皮毛。尽管相当多的美洲豹在这里生存，但它们仅是这个雨林食物链的一个要素。它们以包括青蛙在内的至少87种动物为食。相应地，这些青蛙以昆虫为食，而昆虫则吃树叶和水果。当美洲豹死亡时，一小群微生物帮助分解它的尸体，并将营养物质还给大地。亚马孙雨林通过固定碳，并产生超过全球总量的20%的氧气，使得地球生生不息。因此，它经常被称为“地球之肺”。此外，亚马孙雨林还是一个有食用或药用价值的物种宝库。然而，这些不能替代的动植物面临着一个主要的危险：我们人类。在过去的50年里，由于农耕和养牛等人类活动，约17%的雨林已经消失了。随着人类活动的影响不断增加，濒危物种名单越来越长，这就留给我们一个问题：我们能承担得起损伤“地球之肺”的后果吗？
