Nowadays, advertisements can be found everywhere in big cities. They shout at us from the television screen and radio loudspeakers, wave to us from every page of the newspaper, signal to us from the roadside billboards all day and flash messages to us in colored lights all night.
Faced with a flood of advertisement, some people wonder whether it is necessary to have such huge sums spent on advertising. They often cite in illustration of it the attractive, but false and deceptive advertisements to which many consumers fall victim. Why don't we stop advertising and use the money to reduce the price of goods? It sounds like a good idea, but they fail to notice the contribution advertising makes to our society. Because the production of a better product to compete for customers' money is the goal of advertisers, customers are thus given a chance to compare their products and get the best and cheapest one. Besides, as the advertisement can provide people with a lot of immediate and detailed information as to the availability of a certain product, or a service or a job, it makes life much more convenient. And another thing we mustn't forget: the fact that we pay so little for our daily newspapers and TV programs is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers.
Advertising performs such a useful service to our society that we can't imagine what would happen if there were no advertisements. (198 words
我和陈明是好朋友。一天,我们把在手工小组做的木船拿出来玩,陈明一不小心把我的小木船摔坏了。争执中,陈明又把它踩坏了,我非常生气,一把夺过他的小木船,我向他大吼道:“你赔!你赔!”说着,陈明急了说道:“我不是故意的!”听完这话,我火冒三丈,把他的木船砸了,从此,我们的友谊“破碎”了。
天空显得阴沉沉的,路边的鲜花不再有颜色了,树上的鸟儿叽叽喳喳地乱叫,心情北极一样的温度,此时,我还是非常生气,他凭什么把我的木船摔碎。
每当我到学校时,见到他却像见了陌生人,有时,我还在他面前说风凉话、刁难他。他却对我微笑着,我心想:“笑面虎,真是一个虚伪的人。”
但是有一次,我对他的印象有了改变。那天,我发了高烧。在家休息,但快期末考试了,我心里很焦急,突然我闻见了鸡汤的香味,原来是陈明,他是偷偷来的,手里提着一桶鸡汤。我不耐烦的说:“你来干什么?是看我笑话的?对不起,我没空,你走吧。”他着急向我解释道:“不是的,不是的。那天是我把你的小木船弄坏了,对不起,请原谅我。”他从口袋里拿出了一个精美、小巧玲珑的木船,他还给我舀了一勺鸡汤,给我吹吹,让我喝下。我激动地流下了眼泪,他还从书包里抽出笔记本,把老师讲的内容给我讲一遍,我很感动地说:“陈明,我也有错,不该生你气,还说一些风凉话。”往后,我们的友谊更深厚了,好像天空变得更蓝了,鸟儿也欢快的歌唱,鲜花也很鲜艳了。
我一直珍藏着这只小木船,因为它成为了我和陈明友谊的见证。
