＜ 計程車競爭 不漲反降價 ＞
　　　　A long queue of taxis line up outside Sungshan Airport, waiting for passengers. If they're lucky and meet one going for a long-haul ride, their gas money for the day will be covered. Those who wander the city in search of passengers are not so lucky. Some times, even hours on the street would yield no ride. According to the Union's statistics, a total of 100 thousand cabs are in business in Taiwan, with 60 thousand of those in the Taipei Metropolitan area. In order to survive competition, cab services are slashing rates despite the rise in oil prices. Companies such as Taiwan Taxi, Pan-Asia, Sunrise and Blue Angel are all offering 10-20% discounts. To frequent cab riders, it is an alluring promotion. While discounts may increase business for cab services, they will create an impact on independent cab drivers. Drivers have no answer to the frustration and say providing quality service will have to be their edge. To consumers, it is a win-win situation.

　　　　松山機場旅客出口站，一大排的計程車等著載客，運氣好的載到長途旅客，一天油錢就有著落了，不過，在街上四處亂轉的計程車司機，就要碰運氣，有時候跑了好幾個小時，還載不到客人。根據公會統計，現在全台灣至少有十萬輛計程車，其中台北縣市就有六萬多輛，競爭相當激烈。為了生存，無線電業者不顧油價上漲，率先打出降價方案，包括台灣大車隊，泛亞，日昇，還有藍天使，都推出八到九折的優惠別看只是八折九折，對於常搭計程車的民眾來說，還是有很大的吸引力常搭車的人養成固定叫車，確實對於個人車行有很大的影響個人司機說得很無奈，只能打服務牌，反正有競爭就有壓力，對消費者來說，這也是一大福

＜ 搶救關節症 年齡層下滑 ＞
　　　　As temperatures drop, many middle-aged people and senior citizens experience discomfort in their joints. If this is true for you, you might have degenerative arthritis. According to statistics, over half of the above-50 population in Taiwan suffers from arthritis, of which 80% are female. Furthermore, people with O-shaped legs should be extra careful. As an increasing number of people develop arthritis, the number of remedies and pharmaceuticals for the treatment of arthritis on the market are on the rise as well. Due to the probability ofearning big profits in this market, the percentage of fake or illegal drugshave also increased. For example, there is a fake version of the drug 維骨力 being sold. Because the Department of Health is trying to turn 維骨力 into a prescription drug, the drug will no longer be covered by National Health Insurance in the future. The burden of paying will fall to the public, but most importantly, when purchasing medications, be sure to purchase them from a reputable pharmacy to avoid counterfeit drugs.

＜ 最老計程車 車齡已25年 ＞
　　　　Although the engine is a bit loud from the outside, passengers sitting inside the cab don't notice any excess noise or experience any discomfort. This car is 黃木 山's baby, and according to Huang, it is the oldest and most well preserved cab in Taiwan. Huang bought the car in 1979. This model ofcar was that era's Rolls Royce, but after the Ministry of Economic Affairs banned diesel-operated cars under 3.5 tons from being imported, the number of cars like this one dwindled. Luckily, Huang is not only a good driver, but an excellent mechanic as well. Apart from replacing the air conditioning system, the car has not had any major problems. The body of the car still has its original coat of paint on it, and according to Huang, the mileage which the car has accumulated is enough to go around the moon. Because Huang is an excellent driver, he has never been fined. Although future maintenance will be difficult since this car is the only one of its kind in Taiwan, Huang has confidence that his taxicab will continue to take passengers where they need to go, and enjoy a long life.
