People set up tables outside and put out things that they no longer want but are still useful. Other people come along and they can buy them at a very low price. You can find everything from books to cars at garage sales.My wife and I don’t really need anything but we like going to garage sales just to see the things other people are getting rid of. I should know better garage sales can be dangerous.We recently went to a sale and my wife found a new light fixture which she thought would look good in our bathroom. She got this fixture for 70 pounds. I knew as soon as she bought it that I was in trouble. When we got home,we found the base of the new fixture was of different size and shape and the old one would leave a mark on the wall when we took it off. That meant we had to paint the bathroom,so we went out to buy paint, brushes,rollers and special tape to make sure the paint lines between the walls and ceiling were perfectly straight. However,the new paint was a slightly different shade of green than the old paint and my wife decided we should have wood trim (木质边饰)instead of the paper border. We went out to buy wood trim and the nails to put it up with. It took several days to strip everything out of the bathroom,tape the walls and paint them,measure and cut the trim and fix it to the walls and put up the new light fixture. It looks very nice and so far has cost about 150 pounds. Now my wife is saying that in the newly painted bathroom in the slightly different shade of green,new towels would look nice.I know I should avoid going to garage sales in the future but they are interesting. Besides,my wife loves them and there are certain things you do just to keep peace in the household. We will probably keep going and probably keep finding things we never knew we needed. Buying things cheaply,however,can get very expensive.1.We can learn from the passage that the items sold at garage sales are often 　　　.A.valuable B.different C.various D.beautifu。
