Advertising persuades people to buy their products or services with techniques like creating memorable slogans and using “brand ambassadors”.

17、, advertisements will be even more tailored to the needs of individual customers.A1. Look at the first and the last sentences in Paragraph 2, Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 6.

18、raph, echoing and explaining each other.2. Answer the questions in Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5.

25、n2. What is your attitude towards advertising tailored to individual customers needs? Give reasons for your answer.I am for advertising tailored to individual customers needs. It prevents customers from being disturbed by advertisements they are not interested in and as a result helps them find the

26、products or services they are looking for more easily. Customers will also feel more valued as these advertisements address them on a personal level. CAppreciationI am against adverting tailored to individual customers needs. With personalized advertisements, people can see only a very narrow select

27、ion of products or services, without a chance to learn about other products or services. Whats more, if their needs change or they have to share their device with someone else, these personalized advertisements may not reflect the things they really want to buy.
