答案 The Negative Effects of Some Advertisements Advertisements are a powerful tool, through which products and services are imprinted into viewers’ minds. But advertisements are essentially filled with sales gimmicks, the negative effects of which warrant our attention. The first negative effect of advertisements is misleading the audience. More often than not, sales languages in advertisements are equivocal. They invite the audience to imagine their own favourable fantasy, which is seldom true in reality. For example, a Coke advertisement may claim that it is "cheaper than the leading brand but with the same quality". Potential buyers are tricked to think that this Coke is less expensive than Coca Cola and the quality is still guaranteed. Actually, "leading" is a fuzzy description that could hardly be definite. It could mean a "leading" brand in the West or a leading brand in China. The second negative effect of advertisements is encouraging excessive consumption. The provocative language in advertisements paints an attractive picture to lure audiences to purchase a certain product. They declare that by owning this perfume, you will be sexy, and that by having that perfume, you will be elegant. If you want to feel elegantly sexy, buy both of them. Therefore, consumers are consuming the concepts associated with the products, rather than the products themselves. In conclusion, advertisements might mislead us and lead to over spending on some fanaticized images.
