【正确答案】
【答案解析】In the picture above, a lot of journalists and consumers followed a beautiful female star, who was the agent of certain products. At the first glimpse, the picture is so simple that it deserves little explanation, but only a sensible reader can capture its essence.
Beyond doubt, the author highlights a focal point, and that is, many famous public stars made a false advertising for some products, misled consumers; and complained by the consumers. A recent survey shows that at least one fourth people misled by the stars" advertisements to buy certain goods during their lives. In order to get higher income, many movie stars accepted the manufactures" invitation as the image spokesman for their products. However, what they declared the capabilities of the products were far more than the authenticity of them. So it caused the consumers spent much money on the false goods, or wasted more time, even more, lost their lives. In a word, the disadvantages of false advertising overshadow the benefit. Doesn"t such a situation deserve the attention of our governments and society!
What should be done to arrest and reverse this disturbing situation? Firstly, the press is obliged to make good efforts to publicize the importance of truthful advertising. Secondly, the central authority is expected to make strict rules and regulations. Last but not the least, a monitoring and supporting mechanism must be built up without delay. In a sense, as a public star, he/she should give a proper direction for the consumers, not misleading them.
