Task 6: Today a person meets an advertisement on stands about 10-15 times a day: on the way to school or work, to the shop, returning home, walking and etc. Is advertisement a necessity of the modern world? Express your opinion - 150 words. (18 points)
Now an advertisement affects on people constantly which contributes our way of life (print, TV, radio, the Internet). Even if the world of an advertisement is illusory and it imagines life in a simplified form. Although an advertisement does not solve acute social problems and promote consumer attitude to life (by the way, the last statement is not always true).
But in any case, those who perceive it, it offers some guidances, but an advertisement exists and it also has such right. Thus, an advertisement reflects not only life, but actively intervenes in it, helping her change.
I think that it is need an advertisement only for books.
After all, only books can teach us something.
Each person has his individuality and if we say unequivocally about an advertisement, I can hardly say I need an advertisement or not. Unfortunately or not an advertisement is annoying. I think, an advertisement should not be much. although if you remove the ads completely from your life people will live in ignorance.
