Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Advertising can tell you a lot about a country.
Do you believe almost everyone in the world has seen an advertisement before?
Oh, yes, we agree with this. Advertising spans every area in our planet. By using different kinds of media, such as board, TV, internet or special salesgirls, the advertisers transfer a lot of information. Meanwhile, it also tells us a lot about a country, especially economy and education.
From various advertisements, we can judge the economic development of a country. None of countries never sale their own products. More often, the advertisements are a display of domestic products. For example, there must be a lot of advertisements about cars in a developed country like American. However, much less similar advertisements can be seen in poor country like Iraq. What’s more, the level of people’s life is close to the country’s economy. Not to mention a car, the people in some districts even cannot afford to buy a mobile phone. So the advertisements are fewer as well. But in American, a car is a necessary object of the daily life.
Furthermore, the education of a country can be manifested in the advertisement. In China, advertising means “let all know”. In this sense, not only does the advertisement sale products, but it includes the ones of public benefit as well.
I clearly remember an advertisement of public benefit which was watched on TV several years ago. When feeling his mother was very tired after work, a three or four year-old boy automatically took a bowl of warm water and helped wish her mother’s foots. What a shocking scene! It indicates that we should always take care of our parents. Even such a young child will do this, why don’t you? In addition, some advertisements appeal us to love the environment, to help others in great need and so on.
From what I have concerned above, watching advertisements is nearly learning a country, especially its economy and education. Besides, culture, custom, technology and even politics will also be showed through advertising.
You see, the patterns of advertising change hugely in different countries and each has its own feature. |
