句子拆分

We have now identified enough of the long-term patterns shaping the history of the planet, and our species, //to make evidence-based forecasts about the situations //in which our descendants will find themselves.

拆分点参考：标点符号，从属连词

结构解析

（1）本句主干为主谓宾结构：We（主语）have now identified（谓语）enough of the long-term patterns（宾语）；其后的shaping the history of the planet, and our species, 为现在分词做后置定语修饰先行词patterns；之后的to make evidence-based forecasts about the situations为不定式做目的状语；

（2）其中the situations之后又跟了一个“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句in which our descendants will find themselves，修饰先行词the situations。

技巧点拨

目的状语的翻译，通常译为“使得；以便；目的是”。例如to make evidence-based forecasts about the situations…，翻译为了“这使我们能够对…环境做出有根据的预测”。

参考译文

我们现在已经确定了足够多的塑造地球以及人类历史的长期模式，这使我们能够对子孙后代的生存环境做出有根据的预测。
