单选题{{B}}Passage 1{{/B}}
Advertisement can be thought "as the
means of making known in order to buy or sell goods or services".
Advertisement aims to increase people's awareness and arouse interest. It
tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message.
The press offers a fairly cheap method, and magazines are used to reach special
sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local
market. Television, although more expensive, can be very effective. Public
notices are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other
ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as
well as direct mail advertisement. There can be no doubt that
the growth in advertisement is one of the most striking features of the western
world in this century. Many businesses such as those handling frozen foods,
liquor, tobacco and medicines have been built up largely by
advertisement. We might ask whether the cost of advertisement
is paid by the producer or by the customer. Since advertisement forms part of
the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is
clear that it is the customer who pays for advertisement. However, if large
scale advertisement leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and
the customer pays less. It is difficult to measure exactly the
influence of advertisement on sales. When the market is growing, advertisement
helps to increase demand. When the market is shrinking, advertisement may
prevent a bigger fall in sales than would occur without its support. What is
clear is that businesses would not pay large sums for advertisement if they were
not convinced of its value to them.
