Integrating skills Fill in the blanks for the revision Advertising is a highly developed industry. It has gone hand in hand with radio, television and other media. People react to ads in different ways. Some think ads are useful and help consumers make informed choices while others accuse companies of using ads to mislead us. Companies can influence customers’ choices by introducing a brand name and by associating products with customers’ needs. There are so many ads for customers that advertisers must try to get their message across by appealing to their emotions. Ads help companies and customers in all kinds of ways. They can help companies increase sales . At the same time , they help customers choose among all the available products. In fact, truthful ads provide good information,and help customers compare feathers, functions and costs. Some governments name a famous person as their spokesman or spokeswoman to make people aware of their social problems and policies. Customers should protect themselves by keeping an eye out for bad ads, telling false information from real facts and making good choices.
