问题    "Sustainability" has become a popular word these days, but to Ted Ning, the concept will always have personal meaning. Having endured a painful period of unsustainability in his own life made it clear to him that sustainability-oriented values must be expressed through everyday action and choice.  
   Ning recalled spending a confusing year in the late 1990s selling insurance. He’d been through the dot-corn boom and burst and, desperate for a job, signed on with a Boulder agency.  
   It didn’t go well.  "It was a really bad move because that’s not my passion," says Ning, whose dilemma about the job translated, predictably, into a lack of sales. " I was miserable. I had so much anxiety that I would wake up in the middle of the night and stare at the ceiling. I had no money and needed the job. Everyone said, ’Just wait, you’ll turn the comer, give it some time. ’"

选项

答案 “可持续性”已经成为当前的一个热门词汇,但是对泰德?宁来说,这个词自有另一番意思。在经历了人生一段痛苦的、难以持续的阶段后,他清楚地认识到,可持续性发展导向的价值必须通过日常的每一个行动和选择来实现。 宁回忆起了上个世纪90年代末有一年卖保险的那段混沌经历,在经历了互联网的繁荣和大发展之后,宁迫切的需要一份工作,于是,他同博德的一家中介机构签了合约。 事情的进展很不顺利,宁说:“那真是错误的一步,因为那根本不是我的兴趣所在。”可以想见,在这种困扰的背后则是低迷的销售业绩。他还说:“我当时真是可怜,我如此的焦虑,以至于总是半夜醒来,然后盯着天花板,我没有钱并且需要这份工作,每个人都和我说,再等等,总会有转机的,再多给自己点时间。”
