经典 （童年英文版） 值得回味
Days of my past
I recall when I was young
oh I will play and always having fun
with the neighbour next to me
and we'll play until the setting sun
try to be the best among
the others in a game call the "spider battle"
It doesn't matter
who is the best now
Those were the days of my past
few years later when I got to school
and was late for lesson all the time
always day dreaming in the class
till I don't even know the lesson's done
then my teacher always tell me
never ever be lazy again
what can I do now
what can I say now
those were the days of my past
as the days go on and on
I grew up and had my first love
candel light and sandy beach
finally give away my first kiss
mather said I was too young
to fall in love and then I will one day regret
so love was over
but I do miss her
those were the days of my past
just when I left my high school and
got my first job in a sales night
working hard all day and night
no one there to lend a helping hand
dady told me not to worry
and said that l should go on step by step
what can i say now
what can I do now
those were the days of my past
then one day i settled down
with the only one I really love
got a small family with two kids
that is what I'm always hoping for
but i still remenber having
fun with all my friends when I was young
I miss my home town
I miss my old friends
those the days of my past
I miss my home town
I miss my old friends
when will i see them again(共49张PPT)

What is a yard sale
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。
