18、 从全球范围来看，IT 行业产生的温室气体大约占二氧化碳总排放量的 2，这跟全世界所有航空公司产生温室气体一样多，谁会想到这一点呢? 许多日常的工作对环境造成了人们意想不到的破坏。因搜索正确答案所需搜索次数多少的不同，一次谷歌搜索会产生 02 到 07 克的二氧化碳。为了快速给用户提供搜索结果，谷歌在世界各地建立大型数据中心，这些数据中心挤满了大功率计算机。计算机在排放出大量二氧化碳的同时，会产生大量的热量，因此数据中心又需要良好的空调系统，这甚至会消耗更多的能量。 然而，谷歌和其他大型技术提供商在严密监控其能效并不断进行改进。监控只迈出了减排的第一步，但减排还需要采取更多的措施，仅仅依靠大公

22、力”已经成为了一个流行的词语。但是，对 Ted Ning来说，他对这个词有着自身的体会。在忍受了一段痛苦的、难以承受的生活之后，他清楚地意识到，以承受力导向的生活价值需要通过日常的行动和抉择加以体现。 Ning 回忆了在 20世纪 90年代末他在困惑中度过的一年，那年他从事保险销售工作。经历了网络经济的兴盛和衰败之后，他非常渴望得到一份工作，于是和一家Boulder经销商签了合同。 事情进展并不顺利。Ning 说：“那的确是很糟糕的一种变动，我对那份工作没有热情。”可以想象，他这种工作上的窘境造成销售业绩不佳。他说：“很惨，我非常焦虑，常常会在半夜醒来，盯着天花板。没有钱，我需要这份：工作。每

27、，一些大银行和金融机构中的高级管理人员的补偿金计划受到密切关注。 银行家们过度冒险是导致金融危机至关重要的原因，在历史上也有类似情况。在这种情况下，一般是由低息引起并造成持续的错觉，其实是一种债务泡沫经济。 抵押贷款人很乐意把大量资金借给无力偿还的人，再将贷款分割，并沿这样的链条出售给下一个金融机构，这些做法都在利用高科技证券业，结果，却增加了抵押资产的风险。 金融管理规定必须能应对这种最不负责任的并导致银行损失惨重的做法，以期扭转下一个危机，而这下一个危机很可能包括有各种类型的金融技术和资产。但补偿金计划的根本问题值得审视，这个计划与眼前利益相关，因而导致银行家们不负责任地甘冒风险。)解析：

32、次单一的预测，充其量，你也只能在此单一预测的基础上再做一些敏感性分析。空白表格程序开启了一种更具分析性的规划方法，其原因是空白表格程序中的每一行中的项目都可以被拆分，其中的每一个部分及亚组成部分都可以被拆分和测试。你可以对商业所依赖的关键设想提出“如果会怎么样?”的问题。例如，“如果顾客对价格的敏感度超过了我们的预期怎么办”，只需敲击几下键盘，你就可以看到某个变化对全局的各个方面可能产生怎么样的影响，换句话说，你可以对商业的行为建立模型。在计算机改变了商业规划的本质之前，绝大部分成功的商业规划与其说是精心策划出来的，不如说是运气使然。空白表格程序将公司的市场洞察力与相应的经济结果更为紧密地联系起来，从而使公司在商业运营开始前建立商业模型变为可能。)解析：
