Everyone"s at it, even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn"t
done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction (网上拍卖).
Buying for Beginners
Sign up on www. eBay. co. uk. Most items (e.g. tables, computers and books) ready for auction will
come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with"Buy It Now" and have a fixed price.
You can buy these right away.
If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids (出价)
for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and
asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days and when they finish, you get an email telling
you whether you have won the item.
How to Pay
Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you
might not want to post a check or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system
that takes the money away from your credit card.
Selling Made Simple
If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I followed my friends" advice and put
up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends
to bid.
The big Things in Life
It"s easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collectively sent by
deliverymen. Check the ways of delivery before you bid.
B. Ways of making delivery online.
C. How to use an online-auction system.
D. Advantages of an online auction system.
B. will get what he wants in ten days
C. should make payment immediately
D. may check its picture and description
B. by sending the money to the seller
C. through an online payment system
D. by paying the deliveryman directly
family members don"t know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers
and sisters to fight with each other and then they go to their friends for some ideas.
It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends. Even when they are not
with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This
communication (交际) is very important in children"s growing up, because friends can talk about something,
and these things are difficult to say to their family members.
However, parents often try to choose friends for their children. Some parents may even stop their children
from meeting their good friends. Have you ever thought of the following questions?
Who choose your friends? Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you? Have you got a good
friend your parents don"t like?
Your answers are welcome.
B. brothers
C. sisters
D. parents
B. fight with their parents
C. talk about it with their friends
D. go to their brothers and sisters for help
B. we"ve got no idea, so your answers are welcome
C. your answers are always right
D. you can give us all the right answers
B. Children should choose everything they like.
C. Parents should understand their children better.
D. Teenagers should only go to their friends for help.
to worry: Life can"t be all working at textbooks-that"s why the "New Year film" was invented. In China as in
the West, December is a time for exciting movie releases (上映) with the world"s top stars.
