一台有缺陷的二手车(“柠檬”)，其缺陷的成因往往难以追溯，比如车主的驾驶行为、维护习惯和事故等。
A defective used car (" lemon ") is generally the result of untraceable actions, like the owners driving style, maintenance habits and accidents.
比如说，他们可能愿意为一辆他们认为有着或是柠檬或是桃子的同等几率的车支付750美元。
They might be willing to pay, say, $750 for a car they perceive as having an even chance of being a lemon or a peach.
柠檬论文甚至不是一篇关于二手车市场的精准描述：很明显，不是每一辆在售二手车都是有瑕疵的车。
The lemons paper was not even an accurate description of the used-car market: clearly not every used car sold is a dud.
