周日，野火向法国历史名城波尔多的郊区推进，该市位于法国葡萄酒产区的核心地带。法国和西班牙正在与已迫使数十万人撤离的大火搏斗。
主句为 Wildfires advanced towards the outskirts...，其中 at the heart of the country's winelands 是插入的介词短语，补充说明波尔多的地理位置；as 引导时间状语从句 as France and Spain battled blazes，表示与主句动作同时发生；从句中 that have already forced the evacuation of hundreds of thousands of people 是修饰 blazes 的定语从句，使用现在完成时强调火灾已造成的后果。
While wildfires have long been a feature of Spain's summers, Sanchez said their growing scale and intensity, fuelled by increasingly extreme weather, required policies grounded in climate science.
桑切斯说，虽然野火长期以来一直是西班牙夏季的常见现象，但在日益极端的天气推动下，火灾规模和强度不断扩大，需要以气候科学为依据制定政策。
While 引导让步状语从句，表示“虽然、尽管”；主句为 Sanchez said + 宾语从句；宾语从句的主语是 their growing scale and intensity，其后 fuelled by increasingly extreme weather 是过去分词短语作后置定语，说明规模与强度扩大的原因；谓语 required 后接宾语 policies，grounded in climate science 同样是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰 policies，意为“基于气候科学的政策”。
