Today we live in a society where
advertising increasingly affects us all. It affects us to buy more things,
regardless you like it or not. From my point of view I could say that
advertising decide what we eat, how we look,etc…
Nowadays when we see something on advertise on
television, we go out and buy it thinking that it is exactly as advertisement
said it is. Even if something is good, it is often better on advertising. For
this reason I believe that advertising influenced to us to buy things that we
see on television.
The advertising affect to young people more than we
think. There are advertisement for everything. Many times it’s showing pretty
and thin models representing the product as we look at advertising. When
teenagers buy it, and it is not as creative shows, they feel cheated. On the one hand I agree
with the advertisement because has a positive part due tue the advertising is
that informs us about new products that are on offer, but may still be good.
Something else that is positive with advertising is that it can be used for
some useful stuff too.
On the other hand I think that there may be negative
advertising that often gives us the wrong and misleading information in
relation to what they had imagined. Something that is displayed on the advertisement,
is one form or another, may even be harmful products. In this composition we
had related adverts with young people/teenagers but I am going to talk also
about children because I think that they are specially influenced by
advertising. For example when children see a nice toy car on television, and
think that it was big and nice. They just must have it! So they want the car
for their birthday or Christmas and are disappointed when they see that it is
not as it was shown/seen in the advertisements. Now it is much smaller. The
commercials make things appear larger than in it really is. For this reason the
advertisements related with young people or in this case with children is
negative.
To conclude , I think that adverts have positive and
negative part and in society of nowadays influence a lot to people because
usually we are seeing advertisements on television ,advertising banner or in
storefronts where shops and commercials are always trying to sell a product and
encourage people to buy this using their publicity tricks.
