1 句式分析] 本句是一个主从复合句。Extinctions are not unusual in our Earth’s history是主句；where entire species are wiped out是where引导的定语从句，where在句中作状语。
[自主翻译] 物种灭绝，即某个物种的完全消失，在地球的历史上并不罕见。
2 句式分析] 本句为复合句。These include the third mass extinction是主句；known as the “Great Dying”是过去分词短语作定语；which killed 90% to 96% of all species是which引导的定语从句，which在句中作主语。
[自主翻译] 这其中包括称为“大灭绝”的第三次灭绝，那期间90%至96%的物种灭亡了。
3 [句式分析] 本句是复合句。 the rate is cause for concern是主句；Although it is not unusual for species to die out naturally是although引导的让步状语从句；at which this is now happening是“介词＋关系代词”引导的定语从句。
[自主翻译] 虽然物种的自然灭绝并不罕见，但现在灭绝的速度让人担忧。
