Yard sale 庭院旧货出售这是国外的一种风俗,也是一种独特的售货方式。人们利用周末,将家中搁置不用的物件,放在自家庭院中廉价出售,因而被称作 yard sale ,也可译作“家庭拍卖会”。庭院售卖的物品种类繁多,大到家具,电器,小到玩具,衣物和鞋帽。这些物品虽多数为二手家什,但也有全新的物品,且价格合理公道,甚至还可讨价还价。正是这种低廉,公道的价格及买家淘宝和碰大运的心理,使得 yard sale 广受欢迎,逐渐演变成一种独特的文化现象。toy bear 玩具熊bread maker 面包机scarf n. 围巾复数为: scarvessoft toys 毛绒玩具board games 棋类游戏1a Look at the things at the yard sale.
