Source text - English We have been closely following the situation in China following the devastating 7.1 magnitude earthquake which struck Yushu of Qinghai Province on April 14. I was terribly saddened to see images of the destruction to homes and livelihoods, and particularly by the tragic loss of life caused by this disaster.
In response, Goodyear China has committed to donate RMB 400,000 through UNICEF for its ongoing earthquake relief efforts and is working closely with them on how to make the most effective use of this donation.
Immediately following the earthquake, Goodyear dealers in Qinghai Province visited local retail stores in order to provide support by donating money and goods. We thank them sincerely for their efforts.
Goodyear has, and always will be, a strong partner of local communities, and so I encourage you all to continue to apply this global tradition of our company and work together to assist in any we can.

English to Chinese: Pursing Customer-Defined Quality General field: Marketing Detailed field: Marketing / Market Research
Source text - English Lifestyles change, design changes, taste changes, but does the perception of quality change?
Yes, it does. The perception of quality for automotive consumers is continuously changing. Seems just two decades ago quality might have been defined as the ability of your vehicle to transport you and your family from Point A to Point B with only a little maintenance and no breakdowns. Or, you hoped your car would start in adverse weather conditions (especially in -20°C weather), and that you wouldn’t have to resort to the many tricks you devised to get your car started after an indefinite number of cranks. And nowadays? Dare your vehicle if it does not start under any given condition, and no one gives a second thought to driving problem-free from Point A to Point B.
Quality today encompasses a much broader scope of definition than in years past. J.D. Power and Associates data shows that in 2003, 76% of customer-reported vehicle problems were related to defect/malfunctions. By 2009, that had dropped to 52%. Conversely, design- and usability-related problems have grown threefold in that same time frame (Figure 1). Quality perceptions are now far more than just the measurable failure of systems or components, and the scope is increasing every year.
今天的品质所包含的定义范围较以往年代更加广泛。JD Power and Associates的数据显示，在2003年，客户报告的车辆问题中有76%与缺陷/故障有关。到2009年，这一数字已下降至52％。相反，同一时期内与设计及可用性相关的问题增加了三倍（图1）。对品质的感知现已远远超出系统或部件的可测故障，而且其范围正在逐年扩大。

Source text - English Lee Kum Kee, the world’s inventor of oyster sauce, introduces the first mushroom diced vegetarian oyster flavoured sauce in Singapore, Lee Kum Kee Golden Vegetarian Oyster Flavoured Sauce with Mushroom. The new product is expected to appeal to vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike in Singapore. With diced mushrooms, the oyster sauce gives dishes greater texture and consistency with a unique natural mushroom flavour.
A healthy and natural fungus, mushrooms have been used for thousands of years both as food and for medicinal purposes. Mushrooms are becoming increasingly popular amongst food lovers for their natural flavour and health benefits. Riding on this trend, Lee Kum Kee becomes the first sauce manufacturer in Singapore to add diced mushroom in its sauce.
Containing no added monosodium glutamate (‘MSG’) and no added preservatives, Lee Kum Kee Golden Vegetarian Oyster Flavoured Sauce with Mushroom will appeal to health conscious consumers who enjoy the distinctive taste of a vegetarian oyster sauce with diced mushroom.
With its unique golden brown colour, the sauce is an appetising condiment to accompany any vegetarian dish whether stir-fried or used as a dipping sauce.

As a matter of fact, LoĒ³-366 glass is our ultimate in performance and clarity among all of Cardinal's clear coated products. What's more, LoĒ³-366 provides the ultimate in fading protection.

According to the Consumer Federation of America, the average American household spends $1,500 per year on energy costs. But energy-efficient windows can help save a bundle. In fact, you can reduce your energy bills by one-third by simply using low-emissivity glass. But not only does it make financial sense, it's smart to do in view of limited global resources. By using products that reduce energy consumption, one diminishes their environmental footprint, limiting usage of fossil fuels and lowering carbon emissions.

Source text - English DVD Players
DVD players and combination units account for the greatest portion of “standby” electricity consumed in your home— approximately 35%. (Standby power is the electricity used by a device when it is off or in sleep mode.) ENERGY STAR-qualified players use as little as one-fourth of the energy of standard models when they are turned off.
Computers
Fact: By choosing an ENERGY STAR-qualified desktop or laptop computer, you can reduce emissions by approximately 154 pounds of carbon dioxide a year— equivalent to not driving your car for 5 days! Plus you’ll save about $4 a year in energy costs for a laptop, $13 a year for a desktop.
Printers
ENERGY STAR-qualified printers and fax machines automatically enter a low-power mode of 15–45 watts or less after a period of inactivity. A combo printer/fax unit consumes half as much energy while idle as two stand-alone products.
Buying energy-saving surge protectors
The average household spends $60 a year to power electronics while they’re off or in standby mode. (That’s more than $11 billion annually in wasted energy costs.) Energy-saving surge protectors can help by automatically turning off the power to electronics when not in use. It’s a great gift for the person who has almost everything!
