Possible long-term consequences of the “greenhouse effect,” the gradual warming of the Earth’s climate, may include melting the polar ice caps and a rising sea level.

A.      may include melting the polar ice caps and a rising sea level

B.      may include the melting of polar ice caps and the rising sea level

C.      may include polar ice caps that are melting and sea levels that are rising

D.      include melting the polar ice caps and sea levels that are rising

E.       include melting of the polar ice caps and a rise in sea level

Possible和may语意重复，而且mm可以体会一下“北极冰盖的溶化”和“上升的海平面”（还是特指），含义并不平行
