Advertisement

Advertisement can be seen everywhere in the modern society. Large billboards are built on the roadsides or on the top of the high buildings. Newspapers become thicker and thicker, for pages of the paper are covered with advertisements. TV shows us endless ads day and night. Advertisements force people to notice their products.

It is a good way to promote their new products. When a new product is developed, it is the manufacturer’s or seller’s duty to let the public know what the new p roduct is; what the specialties are and what the manufacturer’s or the seller’s guarantees are to the products. Surely, advertisements are like bridges between customers and manufacturers or sellers.

But false or deceptive advertisements can also be found at the same time. When a person has been cheated once, he can’t believe advertisements once more, or at least he can’t believe ads fully. People have become wiser and learnt to use their brains when facing a beautiful and attractive advertisement.

The World is Getting Smaller and Smaller

In ancient times, people’s only transportation means were their feet. So it was rather difficult for them to travel from one place to another. As a result, the world was too big for them to understand.

With the development of modern science and technology, more and more transportation means appear: bicycle, bus, etc. They carry goods and passengers to and from every corner of the world. And they shorten the distance between people. With the help of these modern facilities, people all over the world can get in constant touch with each other.

So it’s easier for people from different nations to understand each other, to communicate with each other. Thus, this world is getting smaller and smaller, just like one big family.

Use of the Time

A man’s life occupies, at best, but a limited space of time; every bit of time wasted in idleness means a reduction of success and prosperity to the man himself and to the world at large. The magnitude of a man’s success in life depends largely u pon how he makes use of his time. Those who achieve greatness in different channels of success are, as a whole, the most hard-working people. Our famous scholar Yao and Shun wasted not a single minute, while Da Yu, our great emperor, valued even the briefest space of time; their accomplishments stand out in our history in bold relief.

If we wish to do something useful, the sure way to success is to turn every minute that we may have at our disposal(可支配的 .The old hours that we have after our daily work are the best time for reading. There is a great deal of wisdom locked up in books.

Nowhere else can we find such a rich spring of knowledge for quenching(satisfy 止渴 our thirst.

Of course, different people follow different occupations. They do not need the same sort of information. Here they must make their own choice to get the books best suited to their particular needs. The time spent in such reading will add greatly to their stock of knowledge and prepare them for greater work in their respective fields of activity. When the reading habit is once formed, they will enjoy reading far more than they do anything else.
