Most 4 have at least one such worry-free zone. We call them 5 .
But if you’re still 6 , you have difficulties. It’s the way of life. And believe it or not, most of your problems may actually be 7 for you than you think. Let me explain.
Maybe you have seen the Great Barrier Reef, 8 some 1, 800 miles from New Guinea to Australia. Tour guides regularly take visitors to 9 the reef. On one tour, the guide was asked a question. “I notice that the lagoon(浅水湖)side of the reef looks 10 and lifeless, while the ocean side is lively and colorful, ”a traveler observed. “ 11 is this? ”
The guide gave an interesting answer, “The coral(珊瑚)around the lagoon side is in 12 water, with no challenge for its survival. It 13 early. The coral on the ocean side is constantly being 14 by wind, waves, storms—surges of power. It has to fight for 15 every day of its life. As it is challenged and tested it changes and 16 . It grows healthy. It grows strong. And it reproduces. ”Then he added this telling note, “That’s the way it is 17 every living organism. ”

An international business specialist group has announced that the move towards a green economy is becoming more urgent for emerging economies(新兴经济体)，especially South Africa.
On Monday，Innovation Group announced that green economic policies were becoming increasingly important on the global landscape and for emerging economies.
According to Pule Mokoena，from Innovation Group，experts believe the adoption of these green policies will assist with“ailing(不景气的)economies”．“The move to a green economy，such as the adoption of alternative energy solutions，should be adopted by economies and countries.”
Mokoena's comments came as Greenpeace Africa called on the South African government to review its decision to include nuclear energy into the country's energy plan.
In order to avoid all energy crisis in the country，the_energy_mix_had_to_be_diversified，including broadening energy carriers to include gas，nuclear，biomass，renewable(wind，solar and hydro)，as well as the efficient use of the existing resources，such as coal.
For this reason，nuclear energy will account for 23 percent of South Africa's energy needs，followed by coal at 15 percent，hydro at six percent，gas six percent，turbines six percent and renewable energy 42 percent.
However，Pule said there are other options for South Africa's energy needs.
“Too many companies are focusing on the costs of green policies，rather than focusing on the long－term benefits，”explained Mokoena.
Nobel economics winner Joseph Stiglitz and the former World Bank chief economist agree with Mokoena and believe that the need to switch to green technology should be seen as an opportunity and not as a burden.
When in South Africa earlier this year，Stiglitz said a switch to green technology would stimulate demand for a range of goods and services，which would have a beneficial impact on the aftermath of the global recession.
He urged policymakers not to be held back by short－term perspectives.
Innovation Group has already developed a reliable alternate energy solution，which the company believes will change the landscape of this emerging market and other companies will follow suite and offer renewable energy solutions for emerging economies.
“We are quickly becoming an industry leader in this space thanks to our in－house expert knowledge on the various SWH technologies available and the application of our Business Process Outsourcing Solutions，which allow for the mass roll－out of these technologies on a national scale.We are proud to be an active part of the solution to the current energy crisis and plan to become a major force in the drive towards sustainability and good environmental practice，”Pule said.
