29、persons home. Sadly the car has become a disadvantage as well as a boon. The car pollutes the atmosphere, may be involved in serious accidents, and by its very numbers blocks roads. How can we reduce its use? The car is only desirable if we can use it easily, so we might begin by reducing access to
30、parking spaces in the cities and simultaneously increasing the quality and availability of public transport. Cars could be banned from certain parts of the city, thus forcing people to walk or to use public transport. The expense of buying and running a car can be raised. If the motorist is faced wi

She longed to handle the graceful instrument that made beautiful sounds. Finally, on her third birthday, Midori was handed a package, a tiny violin, about half the normal si

Failure often led to tears, though she never once turned from the instrument Instead, she persisted until the proble

The most important decision that a company has to make regarding advertising is where to advertise. On TV? In magazine
42、s? On the radio? In newspapers? We refer to these means of communication as “the media“. There are three categories of media: print broadcast, and direct Today, we are going to describe each of these categories and discuss their importance and usefulness in advertising. The first category, the print
43、 media, consists of printed information sources: in other words, newspapers and magazines. For the advertisers, each of these has certain advantages and disadvantages. Lets talk first about newspapers, which receive more money from advertisements each year than any other medium. This is because news
44、paper advertising has several outstanding advantages. First of all, nearly everybody reads newspapers. Therefore, newspaper ads reach huge numbers of people. Moreover, newspapers are generally local. This allows small, local businesses to advertise directly to their potential customers. Third, newsp
45、aper advertising is relatively cheap: so the ad can be as long as the advertiser wants, and it can also be repeated. On the other hand, newspaper ads have no color, and they are not very exciting or attractive. Instead, you find these ads in the second type of print medium, magazines. For the advert
46、iser, the greatest advantage of magazines is that they have specialized groups of readers. In other words, the people who read Car and Driver are probably not the same people who read Glamour, which is a womens magazine, or The New Republic, a political magazine. Therefore, advertising in a magazine
47、 allows a business to direct its ads to the people who are most interested in the product. The big disadvantage of magazine advertisement is that it can be very expensive, especially in magazines like Playboy or National Geographic. Lets move along now and talk about the broadcast media, by which we
48、 mean radio and television. These also have both advantages and disadvantages. First, radio. Radio has two of the same advantages as newspapers: Almost everybody listens to it, and its usually local The disadvantages of radio ads are that they must be short and that they are not permanent in the way
49、 printed ads are. Second, television. Of all the media, TV, with sound, movement, and color, is the most dramatic, so the ads are easy to remember. On the other hand, ads on TV are enormously expensive. Last category, direct media. The most common direct media is the mail, and direct mail advertising is a very big business. Even if you have only lived in this country for a short time, you have probably already received advertisements in the mail. The advantage of advertising by mail is that the ad goes directly to the potential customers hands. However,
