21、 as any I know of.It serves directly to bring about a rapid sale of goods at reasonable prices，so setting up a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at good prices.By drawing attention to new ideas it helps greatly to raise standards of living.By helping to increase demand
22、 it causes an increased need for labor，and is therefore a nice way to fight unemployment.It lowers the costs of many services：without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much，the price of your television program would need to be doubled，and travel by bus or subway would cost
23、 more.And perhaps most important of all，advertising provides a promise of reasonable value in the products and services you buy.Besides the fact that twentyseven Acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising，no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of hi

25、ed for it，and that it has good value.Advertising does more for the good of the public than any other force I can think of.There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on.Recently I heard a wellknown television person declare that he was against advertising because it persuades rather than informs
26、.He was telling us the real difference.Of course advertising tries to persuade.If its message were nothing but information，that would be difficult to get more people to buy，for even a detail such as the choice of the color of a shirt is a bit persuasiveadvertising would be so boring that no one woul

30、tated.【解题导语】本文主要论述了对广告的看法。5D推理判断题。第一句句意：钱用于做广告是值得的，如同我所知道的任何好的事情一样。6A细节理解题。从第一段的第三句开始，作者列举了广告的好处，“raise standards of living”与C相符；“it causes an increased need for labor”与B相符；“without advertisements，your daily newspaper would cost four times as much”与D相符。只有A在文中未被提到。7D推理判断题。见文章第四段：一位电视界名人说他反对广告，原因是广告在于劝说而不是传递信息，而作者对此看法不同。作者认为：广告当然在于劝说，在接下来的一段中，又说如果广告只是把自己限制在信息方面，那么它就很难，甚至不可能达到目的，由此可知作者认为那位电视名人关于广告的看法是片面的。8B推理判断题。在文章的开头句及第三段等作者都充分肯定了广告的作用，所以他的态度是肯定的。
