Consumer Day

The Consumers’ Day, also called International Day for Protecting Consumers’ Rights, is held on 15th March every year. The consumers’ day aims to protect the customers’ right and enhance the customers’ cooperation and communication among nations. The former United States President John Kennedy was the first one to put forward the consumer’s day. He said that the consumers’ have four basic rights, which are the right to have the security of commodity, the right to know the precise detail of commodity, the right to choose goods freely and the right to express personal objection.
消費(fèi)者日又稱之為國際消費(fèi)者權(quán)益日，定在每年的3月15日。消費(fèi)者日是為了保護(hù)消費(fèi)者日而設(shè)立的，目的是為了提升各國消費(fèi)者之間的合作和交流。美國前總統(tǒng)約.翰肯尼迪是首個(gè)提出消費(fèi)者有四項(xiàng)基本權(quán)利的人：這四項(xiàng)基本權(quán)利是有權(quán)獲得商品的安全保障;有權(quán)獲得正確的商品資料;有權(quán)自由決定對商品的選擇;有權(quán)提出消費(fèi)意見。

In China, we usually hold an evening party to let the people know about their rights. On that special night, the CCTV will expose the fake goods in the markets and the special guests will be invited to come to the show to tell about the inside stories of producing fake products. These kinds of programs will cause heated debate in the society. The consumers will pay more attention to their rights. Here are some useful tips for how to protect your rights.
在中國，我們通常會(huì)舉辦3.15晚會(huì)。在這個(gè)特別的晚上，中央電視臺(tái)會(huì)曝光那些市場上的假冒偽劣產(chǎn)品，并邀請?zhí)貏e嘉賓告訴觀眾生產(chǎn)假貨的內(nèi)幕。這類的節(jié)目通常會(huì)在社會(huì)中引起廣泛的討論。消費(fèi)者會(huì)更注重保護(hù)她們的權(quán)益。以下是一些保護(hù)個(gè)人權(quán)益的建議：

Always buy goods from the regular stores, don’t fall for small advantages. Why people buy the fake goods? Generally speaking, the fake one is much cheaper than the real one. Check the commodity before you pay for it. Pay attention to the production date and the storing way. Remember to get the receipt. If something is wrong with the product, you can have your money back with it.
永遠(yuǎn)在正規(guī)的商店買東西，不要貪小便宜。為什么人們會(huì)買到假冒偽劣產(chǎn)品呢？通常來說，假冒偽劣產(chǎn)品會(huì)比真貨便宜很多。在付款之前檢查商品。注意生產(chǎn)日期和儲(chǔ)存方式。記得開發(fā)票。如果日后出了問題，可以用發(fā)票辦理退款。

I think every consumer should know their rights and protect their rights. It’s our responsibilities to make this market become better and healthier.
我認(rèn)為每個(gè)消費(fèi)者都應(yīng)該知道并保護(hù)好自己的權(quán)益。構(gòu)建更好更健康的市場是我們每個(gè)人的責(zé)任。
