示范答案:
When it comes to a website I often use for shopping, the first one that pops into my mind is Xianyu, a popular secondhand platform in China, similar to eBay. Honestly, I used to have strong stereotypes about it: I thought secondhand sites weren’t reliable, worrying I might lose money if sellers didn’t deliver after getting paid, unlike big platforms like Taobao.
My first experience with Xianyu was quite by chance. I needed a book that was out of stock on major sites, so I decided to give it a shot. Luckily, there were plenty of options in different conditions, so I bought one right away. No issues arose, and I’ve been using it regularly ever since.
What I love most is its huge variety,you can find almost anything, from physical items to learning resources. I often buy online courses or electronic materials related to subjects I’m learning, like English speaking or writing. However, there’s one thing I dislike: false information. Some sellers ask you to add their WeChat after purchasing, which means leaving the platform. I always refuse because off-platform transactions are risky, if something goes wrong, I won’t have the platform’s protection.
