答案 Should advertisements be restricted? We are no strangers to advertisements. They are literally everywhere: on printed media, screens, your mobile devices, public transportation, and even the occasional placards held by hired people who walk on the street and show them to passersby. We are surrounded by advertisements every day and everywhere, and it can be a bit overwhelming sometimes. All the manufacturers, distributors and service providers are so eager to let their products be seen by potential customers that some of them may resort to some less honest measures. That’s why advertisements should and must be restricted. To get people’s attentions, advertising agencies want their advertisements to be attractive. While being attractive is a good thing, sometimes it can go in a wrong direction. For example, an advertisement showing a model in the shower to advertise a body wash product is OK, but one that shows a naked model eating snacks is totally unnecessary and inappropriate. It’s misleading. It misuses people’s attention, and could be morally wrong. The most harmful side effect of all the bad advertisements is that they get you to buy something you don’t really need or of poor quality. You will regret buying them, and maybe you’ll learn to do better next time. Sometimes, they can actually do harm to you and people around you. I’m talking about the advertisements that give false information: they trick you with sweet words, false promises and exaggerated effects. In a word, they are telling lies. Buying these products is not only a waste of money, but can also damage your health. Just think of the news about exploding kitchenware, counterfeit medicine, and travel agencies that won’t let tourists leave the shop unless you spend a certain amount of money there. For those who grow up in the information age, they are used to the bombardment of advertisements and have somewhat learnt to tell if they are false. But even the best of us could make mistakes since advertisements and the way they are presented are ever changing and evolving. And what about the elder? They can easily fall prey to false advertisements. In conclusion, advertisements must be regulated. Those that do no harm but simply have bad taste may be spared and left to die away, but the harmful advertisements must be stopped. It will take a lot of effort to identify them and take actions, but it’s necessary for the good of customers, and in turn, a healthy market.
