On my arrival in America, the one thing I noticed more than anything else was the tremendous amount of advertising that went on — on the radio, on television, on billboards (广告专栏) and signposts, and in .magazines. In the last three years, I have become accustomed to this fact in American life, for I believe that it is a creative and necessary part of an industrial society. I, too, want to improve my life-style and to buy better products, so I look to advertising to show me how to do it.
Deciding what to believe in advertising, however, isn’t easy. It seems to me that a person must purchase things with a lot of care. As a consumer, I want to get the best for my money, but I really have to understand the techniques of advertising. Otherwise, manufacturers will be able to sell me anything, no matter what its quality may be.
More and more people are becoming conscious, like me, of the ways in which advertising can affect them. The creative aspects of commercials, for instance, often cover up defects or problems in products. I have learned this well, since I have made purchases and lost money because the items were of poor quality.
The future of advertising most likely Will involve a much greater degree of public participation. I intend to become involved in consumer groups that want to protect people from misleading advertising. But ! also want to see Americans keep their high standards of living in the process. In the future, if consumers like me really care about the quality of something as well as the quantity, maybe advertisers will begin to care more about what they are trying to sell.
