The Effects of Ad. On People’s Life

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! I’m very glad to stand here and give you a speech. At first, I’ll show you a great advertisement. It’s based on an advertisement of a conditioner. The Swedish childhood cancer foundation used the same technique and made a new version to show the reality we faced everyday. While the train stopped in the station, the hair of the model will be blown up. It’s very creative and attracted publics’ attention successfully. However, the model’s hair was blown away. A child who suffered from cancer appeared on the screen. The first time I watched this advertisement, I was touched deeply. Obviously, this advertisement has received a good result, more and more people started to pay attention to these fortuneless children and helped them. This is the power of public service ads.

Advertisements had become more and more important in our daily life. Although there were some advertisements which are boring and just wasted our time. Every coin has two sides, it’s the same of advertisements. It had influenced us unconsciously. The commercial advertising guided our consumption concept, the public service ads leaded us to care others, just as the advertisement I show you at first. Now, do you think advertisement is essential or needless? I believe you have your own opinion.

That’s all, thank you.
