问题     Do you have extra stuff on your hands? The Internet can help you turn that extra stuff into cash. Before the Internet, Americans sold stuff from their garages or yards. Online shopping sites now provide a new place for people around the world.
    eBay was the first site where individual sellers could sell goods online. Ten years later, eBay now has over 150 million users in more than 30 countries.
    This trend has spread quickly around the globe. Major companies now see the Asian market as having the most potential. American companies Amazon and Yahoo both recently partnered with large Chinese sites.
    Selling on an Internet auction (拍卖) is actually quite simple. First, users pay a fee to list their goods. Buyers then bid on the item. When the auction closes, the highest bidder wins. The seller is then responsible for shipping it. After the sale, the buyer and seller can post comments about the sale on each other’s profile.
    Don’t want an auction to decide the price for you? Choose a site where you can decide instead. Craigslist has community-based sites worldwide where users can list items for sale with a suggested price.
    Ready to put your used stuff online? First, find a Web site that serves your area. eBay and Yahoo Auctions both have Web sites in many Asian countries. Second, make sure to market your item well. When writing the description, use accurate and specific details. Include a picture; buyers like to see the product before purchasing it.
    You needn’t decide to buy or sell anything today, but go ahead and start browsing. You might find something you could use. Make your money stretch with these "online garage sales."
To sell things online, you should know how to______your items effectively.

选项 A、charge
B、list
C、market
D、price

答案C

解析 本题为细节题。根据倒数第二段第二、三、四句的内容:“First,find a Web site that serves your area.eBay and Yahoo Auctions both have Web sites in many Asian countries.Second,make sure to market your item well.指在网上出售商品,首先找适合你销售范围的网站。其次 要确保能很好地推销你的物品。因此,正确答案应该选C.market销售。其他三个选项:charge意为“要价”;list意为“罗列”;price意为“标价”,都明显不符合原文意思。
