Try this:
Using your data in Cells A1:B9

E1: 6.5
F1: =VLOOKUP(E3,A1:A9,1,1)
That finds the closest match in Col A

F2: =INDEX(A1:A9,MATCH(F1,A1:A9,0)+1)
Looks in A1:A9 for the value in Cell F1 and returns the next item listed
after that.

Is that what you're looking to do? If no...there are other approaches.
