27、填空项 1:_十一、Section B(总题数：1，分数：71.00)A. The enrichment of previously poor countries is the most inspiring development of our time. It is also worrying. The environment is already under strain. What will happen when the global population rises from 7 billion today to 9.3 billion in 2050, as demographe

28、rs(人中统计学家) expect, and a growing proportion of these people can afford goods that were once reserved for the elite? Can the planet support so much economic activity?B. Many policymakers adopt a top-down and Westem-centric approach to such planetary problems. They discuss ambitious regulations in glo

29、bal forums, or look to giant multinationals and well-heeled (富有的) NGOs to set an example. But since most people live in the emerging world, it makes sense to look at what successful companies there are doing to make growth more sustainable.C. A new study by the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the Bos

30、ton Consulting Group (BCG) identifies 16 emerging-market firms that they say are turning eco-consciousness into a source of competitive advantage. These highly profitable companies (which the study calls “the new sustainability champions“) are using greenery to reduce costs, motivate workers and for

31、ge relationships. Their home-grown ideas will probably be easier for their peers to copy than anything cooked up in the West.D. The most outstanding quality of these companies is that they turn limitations (of resources, labor and infrastructure) into opportunities. Thus, Indias Shree Cement, which

32、has 10ng suffered from water shortages, developed the worlds most water-efficient method for making cement, in part by using air-cooling rather than water-cooling. Manila Water, a utility in the Philippines, reduced the amount of water it was losing, through wastage and illegal tapping, from 63% in

33、1997 to 12% in 2010 by making water affordable for the poor. Broad Group, a Chinese maker of air conditioners, taps the waste heat from buildings to power its machines. Zhangzidao Fishery Group, a Chinese aquaculture (水产养殖) company, recycles uneaten fish feed to fertilize crops.E. Setting green goal

34、s is a common practice. Sekem, an Egyptian food producer, set itself the task of reclaiming (开垦) desert land through organic farming. Florida Ice & Farm, a Costa Rican food and drink company, has adopted strict standards for the amount of water it can consume in producing drinks.F. These firms measu

35、re themselves by their greenery, too. Florida Ice & Farm, for example, links 60% of its bosss pay to the triple bottom line of “people, planet and profit“. The sustainability champions also encourage their workers to come up with green ideas. Natura, a Brazilian cosmetics company, gives bonuses to s

36、taff who find ways to reduce the firms impact on the environment. Masisa, a Chilean forestry company, invites employees to “imagine unimaginable businesses“ aimed at poorer consumers. Woolworths, a South African retailer, claims that many of its best green ideas have come from staff, not bosses.G. I

37、n emerging markets it is hard for companies to stick to one specialism, because they have to worry about so many wider problems, from humble infrastructure to unreliable supply chains. So the sustainability champions seek to shape the business environment in which they operate. They lobby (游说) regul

38、ators: Grupo Balbo, a Brazilian organic-sugar producer, is working with the Brazilian government to establish a certification system for organic products. They form partnerships with governments and NGOs. Kenyas Equity Bank has formed an alliance with groups such as The International Fund for Agricu

39、ltural Development to reduce its risks when lending to smallholders. Natura has worked with its suppliers to produce sustainable packaging, including a new “green“ plastic derived from sugar cane.H. The firms also work hard to reach and educate poor consumers, often sacrificing short-term profits to

40、 create future markets. Masisa organizes local carpenters into networks and connects them to low-income furniture buyers. Broad Group has developed a miniature device for measuring air pollution that can fit into mobile phones. Jain Irrigation, an Indian maker of irrigation systems, uses dance and s

41、ong to explain the benefits of drip irrigation to farmers who cant read. Suntech, a Chinese solar-power company, has established a low- carbon museum to celebrate ways of reducing carbon-dioxide emissions. Rich because green, or green because rich?I. One could quibble (争辩) with BCGs analysis. Phil R

42、osenzweig of Switzerlands IMD business school has argued that management writers are prone to “the halo effect“: they treat the temporary success of a company as proof that it has discovered some eternal principle of good management. The fact that some successful companies have embraced greenery doe

43、s not prove that greenery makes a firm successful. Some firms, having prospered, find they can afford to splurge (挥霍) on greenery. Some successful firms pursue greenery for public-relations purposes. And for every sustainable emerging champion, there are surely 100 firms that have prospered by belch

44、ing (喷出) fumes into the air or pumping toxins into rivers.J. Nonetheless, the central message of the WEF-BCG studythat some of the best emerging-world companies are combining profits with greeneryis thought-provoking. Many critics of environmentalism argue that it is a rich-world luxury: that the po

45、or need adequate food before they need super-clean air. Some even see greenery as a rich-world conspiracy (阴谋): the West grew rich by industrializing (and polluting), but now wants to stop the rest of the world from following suit. The WEF-BCG report demonstrates that such fears are overblown. Emerg

46、ing-world companies can be just as green as their Western rivals. Many have found that, when natural resources are scarce and consumers are cash-strapped (资金短缺的), greenery can be a lucrative (利润丰厚的) business strategy.（分数：71.00）(1).An air-conditioner manufacturer uses the waste heat from buildings to
