A. Write a summary of the magazine article. Use the following questions to help you. Page 12
•What is advertising?
• What is the relationship between advertising and the mass media?
•What are the functions of advertising?
•How does advertising work?
•What is the future of advertising?
Advertising is the activity of promoting a product or service. It has always been closely linked with the mass media and the two have developed hand in hand. Advertising makes people aware of a product or service, creates a desire to buy and helps boost business. Advertisers persuade people to buy their products or services with techniques like creating memorable slogans and using “brand ambassadors”. There are also less
obvious advertisements, like those placed in films, TV shows or video games. In the future, advertisements will be even more tailored to the needs of individual customers.
B. What is your favourite advertisement? What techniques does it use to promote the product or service?
My favourite advertisement is for a smartphone. It uses trendy music and creative camera angles to show off the smartphone’s features, while flashing the simple but catchy slogan: “Next Generation”.
trendy /ˈtrendi/ 时髦的;赶时髦的
show sb/sth off使显得漂亮;使夺目;衬托;炫耀;卖弄;显示
flash /flæʃ/(使)闪现,映出 ;(快速地)出示,显示;
catchy/ˈkætʃɪ/引人注意的; 容易记住的
It presents images of happy energetic young people using the phone to take photos and make videos, with keywords flashing like “Ready! Action!” This advertisement promises me a bright future and a life of happiness. It makes me feel a part of a confident generation that is full of vitality and will become high achievers in the future.
pres·ent /prɪˈzent/(以某种方式)展现,显示,表现
promise向 (某人) 承诺 (给予他们某物); 向 (某人) 保证 (他们获得某物)
vi·tal·ity /vaɪˈtæləti/ 生命力;活力;热情
achiever /əˈtʃiːvə(r)/ (尤指事业)成功者;(用于形容词之后 ) 取得…成绩的人
a low achiever成绩平庸的人
C. What is your attitude towards advertising tailored to individual customers’ needs? Give reasons for your answer.
Option 1:
I am for advertising tailored to individual customers’ needs. It prevents customers from being disturbed by advertisements they are not interested in and as a result helps them find the products or services they are looking for more easily. Customers will also feel more valued as these advertisements target them on a personal level.
Option 2:
I am against advertising tailored to individual customers’ needs. With personalized advertisements, people can see only a very narrow selection of products or
services, with little chance to learn about other products or services. What’s more, if their needs change or they have to share their device with someone else, these
personalized advertisements may not reflect the things they really want to buy.
