原文及翻譯

What sorts of things are sold at yard sales? Just about anything you might find in a house or yard. There are ornaments, china, home decorations, sports equipment, bicycles, games, dolls, toys, tables and chairs, lamps, appliances, books, records, paintings, clothes, record players, and much, much more. 

庭院拍賣會出售哪些東西？幾乎任何你能在房子或院子里找到的東西。有裝飾品、瓷器、家居裝飾品、運動器材、自行車、游戲、娃娃、玩具、桌椅、燈具、電器、書籍、唱片、繪畫、衣服、電唱機等等。

Some items are things that were popular a few years ago but now have gone out of fashion. This might include many toys, books, and games that relate to an old television show that is no longer being shown.

有些物品是幾年前流行但現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)過時的東西。這可能包括許多與不再播放的舊電視節(jié)目相關的玩具、書籍和游戲。

While a lot of older people go to yard sales, so do a lot of students. Students and young people may need cheap furniture for their apartment or a bicycle to get to school or work. They may not be able to pay full price. 

雖然很多老年人去庭院拍賣，但很多學生也去。學生和年輕人可能需要便宜的家具來裝飾他們的公寓，或者需要騎自行車去學校或上班。他們可能無法支付全價。

If you are lucky, you can find almost anything at a yard sale. The trick is to get there early. Most yard sales are advertised to start at 9 a.m., but dealers may arrive as early as 7:30 a.m. By 10 a.m., the busiest part is already over, although most yard sales go on into the afternoon. 

如果你很幸運，你可以在庭院拍賣會上找到幾乎任何東西。訣竅是早點到那里。大多數(shù)庭院拍賣會都宣稱在上午 9 點開始，但經(jīng)銷商可能早在 7:30 就到了。到上午 10 點，最繁忙的部分已經(jīng)結束，盡管大多數(shù)庭院拍賣會持續(xù)到下午。

Yard sales tend to prove the common saying that one person's trash is another person's treasure.

庭院拍賣往往證實了一句俗話：一個人的垃圾是另一個人的寶藏。
