While travelling to Newcastle in the UK to visit relatives, I arrived in London to find my plane transfer north to Newcastle had been cancelled due to deteriorating weather conditions.
The airline was helpful -- offering me a choice between a night in a hotel or a six-hour bus ride to my destination. With no indication as to whether a flight to Newcastle would happen in the next two days, I chose the bus ride.
I stored all my baggage in the luggage compartment of the bus, thinking I would not need anything on the journey.
The young lady sitting beside me could see how tired I was and asked me if anyone would be meeting me on my arrival.
I realised that I had left my cell phone in my bag and had no way to contact my relatives. They would be waiting for me at the airport about five hours before the bus got to Newcastle, not knowing what had happened. Without hesitation, the young lady offered me the use of her cell phone.
When the bus made a rest stop, she asked me if I was getting out. I replied that I wouldn’t as I still had sandals on, and bare feet weren’t ideal for the cold weather, When she got back on, she’d bought me some tea and a packet of sweets to eat.
When we eventually arrived in Newcastle, the woman checked that someone was there to meet me. I asked her to wait a moment while I got my purse to repay her, but when I looked up she had gone. I was unable to even verbally thank her. 59. We learn from the passage that ______.
A. the author had little money to buy the air ticket from London to Newcastle B. the author probably flew to London from a warm place C. the author’s relatives missed meeting her in London D. the author’s cell phone wasn’t functioning in Britain

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 。
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 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 e-mail 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 cheque 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. bid.
62.What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to make payment online. B. Ways of making delivery online. C. Advantages of an online auction system. D. How to use an online-auction system. A. can’t buy other items any more B. should make payment immediately C. has chances to make higher bids D. must give your credit card to the seller A. make loud noises
B. get the others not 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 collected or sent by deliverymen. Check the ways of delivery before you
63.After bidding for an item, a buyer______.
64.You should if the item is being auctioned.
C. ask the other people’s price D. offer the highest price you are ready to pay A. through an online payment system B. through a local bank system C. by sending the money to the seller
D. by paying the delivery man directly
65.The easiest way of making payment mentioned in the passage is________.
