Sarah Beatty: At the Forefront of Green Living
Green living marketplace is one of the fastest growing and most dynamic sectors today.
The eco-friendly or green lifestyle is being embraced by more and more consumers, from personal care products to automobiles to home building and decor and other aspects of living.
Sarah Beatty is one of the women at the forefront of the green living movement. She founded Green Depot in November 2005, the largest supplier of environment-friendly building materials on the east coast.
How did she start her business? In an interview with Good Housekeeping magazine, she related:
A week before I was due to deliver my first child, my husband and I discovered mold contamination in our newly remodelled home and were told our home may not be a safe living environment. I was shocked — and hormonal!
At the time there were not many resources for information or nontoxic products out there.
My husband owns a traditional building supply company and I had just left my job in TV production, so I suggested we start a satellite business, which ultimately became Green Depot.
Since its founding, Sarah’s company Green Depot now has stores in Boston, Brooklyn, Newark, Philadelphia with the Manhattan store soon to be com Dieted.
Her success is an example that great business ideas can come from ordinary problems in our everyday life.
Finding mold pollution inspired Sarah to start her own business.
选项
A、Right
B、Wrong
C、Doesn’t say
答案
A
解析
该题干的改写是对原文信息点的提炼和概括。文中信息点3指出:在Sarah Beatty生第一个孩子前一周的时候,她和丈夫在重新改造的房子里发现了发霉污染的痕迹。并被告知他们的家不是安全的生活环境。正是由于这个原因,SarahBeatty最终决定开办自己的公司给大众提供各种信息资源和无毒产品资源。而题干意为:发现发霉污染给了Sarah Beatty开办自己产业的灵感。这与原文的信息点和后文的叙述相符合,故答案为A。
