There’s a black market of limited-edition Disney park merch — and Disney is cracking down on it.
迪士尼樂園的限量版商品已經形成了一個黑市，而現在迪士尼要摧毀它。
For die-hard Disney fans, there’s no limit to the amount of money they’re willing to spend on anything mouse-related.
迪士尼的死忠粉們願意在米老鼠周邊上投入的財力是上不封頂的。
Aside from shelling out hundreds of dollars to visit the parks multiple times a year, people will buy anything, from park swag and collectibles to Smellitzer machines that literally pump the aroma of Disney theme parks into your home, to experience the Disney magic.
為了體驗迪士尼的魔力，他們除了每年花大幾百美元去樂園玩，還會買一大堆東西，基本什麼都買，除了園區紀念品和收藏品之外，甚至還有園區氣味的噴霧（讓你的家聞起來像迪士尼樂園）。
Now, however, Disney is starting to crack down on some of these mega-fans for flipping their limited-edition merch.
不過，現在，對於這些骨灰級粉絲中的一些，迪士尼要開始找麻煩了，因為他們倒賣了迪士尼的限量版商品。
According to the local newspaper the Orange County Register, the company has started revoking annual passes for park-goers, which can cost up to $1,149 per person, without warning after finding that they had used their annual pass holder discounts (which range from 10 to 20 percent off) to buy limited-edition merchandise in bulk at the parks and then sold it for a marked-up price on eBay or Etsy.
根據當地的報紙《橘縣紀事報》的報導，現在一旦迪士尼發現有人來園區用年卡的折扣價（8折到9折不等）批發限量版商品並在eBay或Etsy上加價販賣，就會開始撤銷這些人的年卡，這可能會給這些人帶來每人1149美元的損失。
Traditionally, such items have been sold exclusively at the parks and for a limited period of time; as a result, they tend to inspire massive consumer demand, particularly among the Disney fandom, with people waiting in line for hours for a crack at buying them.
此前，這些商品都是僅在園區內銷售，而且是限時的；其結果就是，它們常常會讓消費者的需求高漲，這在迪士尼影迷群中尤其明顯；有些人排隊幾小時就是為了一個買這些商品的機會。
This high demand for limited-edition Disney park merch has spawned a black market of such items on eBay and Etsy, with annual season pass holders buying items in bulk and then selling them online at a marked-up rate.
這種對限量版商品的高需求在eBay和Etsy上催生了一個此類商品的黑市，那些年卡持有人會在園區批發這些東西然後加價賣到網上。
Limited-edition Funko vinyl heads of secondary characters from the Disney attraction the Enchanted Tiki Room, for instance, which were released to commemorate the 55th anniversary of the attraction, are currently available for purchase on eBay for $79.99, or three times the original price.
比如，迪士尼景點「魔幻音樂屋」為了慶祝55周年推出的商品，一個次要角色的限量版Funko黑膠腦袋，如今在eBay上賣到了79.99美元（約合人民幣550元），這基本是原價的3倍。
這個詞作動詞講的時候表示「打破」、「弄破」。
He has cracked a bone in his arm.
他摔裂了手臂裡的一根骨頭。
它也可以表示一個東西自發地「破裂」：
The ice cracked as I stepped onto it.
我一踩冰就裂了。
它作名詞講的時候表示「裂縫」：
Cracks began to appear in the walls.
牆壁上開始出現裂縫了。
另外它作名詞也能表示「噼啪聲」以及「爆裂聲」：
The crack of the chips.
她所做的事造成的影響非常壞。
The crack of the rifle shot.
來復槍開槍時的爆裂聲。
