145. Some people say that advertising encourages us to buy things we really do not need. Others say that advertisements tell us about new products that may improve our lives. Which viewpoint do you agree with? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
As people begin to spend more time in watching TV as an important way of entertainment, more and more commercial advertisements become flooting over the programmes. Towards those advertisements, some people hold that they eccourages us to buy things we really do not need, while others say that they do provide us with informations of new products. As far as I am concerned, I am in favor of the latter.
Firstly, merchants tend to advertise their latest and best products in order to attract buyers and seize the market. Through their advertising, it is easy for people to get almost instant infrmation of all kinds of new products when relaxing without going out. A housewife may accidentally find a kind of new paper sheet for her baby when she is breeding. Thanks to the advertisement, she is free of going out for search with her baby in arms.
Meanwhile, people can learn more about new products from advertisements. Almost all advertisement of new products contain a vivid introduction and show about the use of the products. People can get more familiar with the usage of masses of porducts when taking TV show as recreation. The vivid presentation shown by advertisements make people know exactly the dos and don’ts about what they want. Additionallly, the advertisement of cigarettes may highlight the harm of smoking to health and advertisement of wine are likely to aware people the side effects of overdrinking. They are doing good to people’s health.
Also diversified advertisement provide people with more chance of comparation. There are kinds of cups advertised on TV. Through all kinds of advertisements of cups, people can compare them with each other, free of the limitaion of time and distance, and then make their decisions to pick the one satisfying them most.
Taking all reasons listed above, although some advertisements encourage people to buy things they do not need, advertising on the whole provide people more information about what can buy, how to use, and which to buy. Once keeping aware, advertisements can really serve to improve people’s life.
