林超伦实战口译练习笔记 第29期:干得真漂亮

 We want to sell 800,000 cars a year for the next 5 years. So far this year, we've already sold 560,000, and congratulations to those of you that have contributed to this success. This represents nearly 20% increase over the previous year at a time when the market has declined by nearly 10%. Much of the increased sales have come from the commitment and dedication¹ of our dealers² and our staff. Thank you and well done.

我们今后五年的销售目标是每年年80万辆车。今年到目前为止，我们已经销售了56万辆。祝贺你们为这项成就所作的贡献。这个数字相当于比去年增加了将近20%。而同期市场下跌了将近10%。销售增长中的大部分来自于代销商和我们员工的全心投入和勤奋。感谢大家，干得真漂亮。
