Nate starts to browse eBay
Nate: OK. I just saw a Versace for thirty dollars. This stuff can't be real!
Gilly: Most of it is. You should sign up.
Nate:I'm not sure I'd want to give these people my credit card number.
Gilly:Didn't you read about PayPal and Bidpay? They are very safe.
Nate:Sure, but it's so complicated. They asked for my credit card authorization number.
Gilly:That's the last three or four numbers on the back of your credit card where your signature is.
Nate:I have trouble understanding all these forms...but I'm sure I'll get it.

PayPal是種網(wǎng)上付貨款很棒的方式。

奈特開始看eBay網(wǎng)頁
奈特:好。我看到一件凡賽斯才三十塊。這東西不可能是真的!
吉莉:大部分都是真的。你該注冊加入的。
奈特:我不確定我是不是要給這些人我的信用卡號碼。
吉莉:你沒看PayPal和Bidpay的介紹嗎?它們都很安全的。
奈特:看了,不過太復(fù)雜了。它們還要我的信用卡授權(quán)碼。
吉莉:那是你信用卡背面號碼的末三或四碼,就在你簽名的地方。
奈特:我看不懂這堆表格……但我想我會弄清楚的。
