Advertising①: the power of persuasion②
In just one day, a person can see hundreds of marketing messages.
Advertising has become part of modern life. But what is advertising
exactly? In short③, it refers to④ the activity of promoting a product or
service⑤. In other words⑥, it tries to persuade people to buy a product or
service.
The history of advertising has always been closely linked with⑦ that
of the mass media⑧. From the ancient simple advertisements painted on
outdoor signs⑨ to the colourful, interactive ones in smartphone apps⑩,
advertising and the mass media have developed hand in hand .[1]As
media channels have grown in number and type, so have
advertisements.
Because the mass media reaches so many people, it is a perfect
vehicle for advertisers.[2]If an advertisement is placed on a popular
website or on TV at peak times, a huge number of people will know
about the product or service it is advertising.[3]In addition to making
people aware of a product or service, a successful advertisement will
also create a desire to buy, thus boosting business.[4]That is why
when a company wants to promote a product or service, it often launches
a mass media advertising campaign .
[1]句中As引导时间状语从句, 意为“随着……”;“so+助动
词+另一个主语”结构,表示后者的情况和前者的一样。
[2]句中If引导条件状语从句;it is advertising为省略了关系代词
that或which的定语从句,修饰先行词the product or service。
[3]动词-ing短语boosting business作结果状语,表示自然而然的
结果。
[4]That is why ...意为“那就是为什么……”, why引导的表语
从句中含有一个when引导的时间状语从句。

开展大众媒体广告活动
Based on the psychology behind creating a desire to buy,
advertisers have developed ways of persuading people into purchasing
their products or services.[5]A common technique to make an impact is to
create a memorable slogan .[6]Slogans use simple but impressive
language to make us remember the product or service being advertised.
Some of these slogans may also appeal to our emotions.For example, a
slogan may connect a fine china teapot it aims to promote with our pride
in having good taste.[7]You will hear a variety of slogans any time you
watch TV.
Think about your favourite one.What makes it special? And what message
does it try to get across ?A slogan which communicates an idea
effectively can boost sales and even become part of popular culture.That is
the power of memorable slogans.

a variety of各种各样的

Another technique advertisers often employ is to link their company
or product to a “brand ambassador ”—a famous actor, a sports star,
or even a fictional character .Think of a popular fast-food restaurant.Does
it have a brand ambassador? Is the brand ambassador popular among
potential customers?[8]The more we like the brand ambassador, the
more we will be attracted to buy the product.

“越……,就越……”。

a fictional character 一个虚构的人物
Of course, some advertisements are not so obvious: product
placement is typically used in films with huge box-office success and TV
shows with high ratings .[9]Some films are now sponsored by leading
brands, so that only their products appear in the films, like the watches
worn by the title character in the James Bond films.Other types of mass
media use product placement too, including video games.[10]It is not
uncommon for sports video game series to feature different in-game
equipment with real brand names.[11]We absorb these marketing
messages without thinking about them too much, yet they will probably
have an effect on us the next time we go shopping.

In the past, advertising was all about reaching as many people as
possible with the same message.Now, advertising is becoming more
digital and more personalized .Already we may see online advertisements
for products or services we have previously searched for on the Internet,
and we are very likely to receive special discounts and promotions
targeted specifically at us.In the future, advertising will be even more
about understanding individual customers and sending them advertisements
that are tailored to specific needs.[12]Not only will this make them feel
more valued and enable them to see what they are most interested in, but
it will also help companies target their customers more efficiently to have a
positive effect on sales.
[12]本句为“not only ...but also ...”结构, not only置于句首,该分句使用了部分倒装。其中what they are most interested in为宾语从

【参考译文】
广告:说服的力量
短短一天之内,一个人就能见到数百条促销信息。广告已然成为
现代生活的一部分。但是,广告究竟是什么呢?简单地说,广告指的
是推销一种产品或服务的活动。换言之,它(广告)试图说服人们去
购买一种产品或服务。
广告的历史一直以来都与大众传媒的历史息息相关。从古代画在
户外招牌上的简单的广告到智能手机应用程序里丰富多彩的交互式广
告,广告一直与大众传媒携手发展。随着媒体渠道数量的增加和类型
的丰富,广告也在不断发展。
大众传媒的受众十分广泛,正因如此,广告商视其为广告宣传的
完美工具。如果一则广告被投放在一个热门网站或黄金时段的电视
上,许多人都会知晓它所宣传的产品或服务。除了让人们知晓产品或
服务,一则成功的广告也会激发购买欲,从而促进业务增长。那就是
为什么当一家公司想要推销产品或服务时,往往会在大众传媒上发起
一场广告活动。
基于激发购买欲背后的心理特征,广告商开发了多种说服人们购
买其产品或服务的方式。一种用于影响消费者的常见手段是创作一则
令人难忘的广告语。广告语用简单但令人印象深刻的语言使我们记住
它所宣传的产品或服务。有些广告语还能引起我们的情感共鸣。例
如,一则广告语可能会用其打算推销的一款精美的瓷器茶壶让我们联
想到拥有高雅的品味所带来的自豪感。无论何时打开电视,你都会听
到各种各样的广告语。想想你最喜欢的那则广告。它有什么特别之
处?它试图传达什么样的信息?一则有效传达一种理念的广告语可以
增加销售量,甚至成为流行文化的一部分。这就是令人难忘的广告语
所拥有的力量。
广告商常用的另一种手段是将其公司或产品与一位“品牌大使”
联系起来,例如一位著名演员、体育明星,甚至是一个虚构人物。想
想一家很受欢迎的快餐店。它有品牌大使吗?这位品牌大使是否受到
潜在消费者的喜爱?我们越喜欢这位品牌大使,就越会受其吸引而去
购买相关产品。
当然,有些广告并不那么明显。在超高票房的电影或高收视率的
电视节目中,植入式广告是很典型的。如今一些电影由知名品牌赞
助,因而只有该品牌的产品会出现在电影中,比如“007”系列电影
的主人公詹姆斯·邦德佩戴的手表。其他类型的大众传媒也会采用植入
式广告,包括电子游戏。在体育电子游戏系列中,用真实的品牌名给
不同的游戏装备命名的做法并不罕见。我们没有多加考虑就记住了这
些促销信息,而它们有可能会在我们下次购物时对我们产生影响。
在过去,广告只是要向尽可能多的人传播同样的信息。而现在,
广告则变得更加数字化与个性化。我们或许已经见过针对自己之前在
网上搜索过的产品或服务的在线广告,而且很可能会收到专门为我们
定制的特殊折扣和促销活动。在未来,广告将更注重对个体消费者的
了解,并向他们发送针对其特定需求而特制的广告。这不仅会让消费
者觉得自己更受重视,还能让他们看到自己最感兴趣的内容,此外也
能帮助公司更加有效地锁定目标客户,从而对销售量产生积极影响。

第五步:拓视野,育思维品质
1. What can you find when you look at the first and the last sentences in
Paragraph 2, Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 6? (Logical Thinking 逻辑
性思维)
The first and the last sentences in each of the three paragraphs make
up the main idea of the paragraph, echoing and explaining each
other.
2. Do you find the examples of advertisements in the article
helpful? What other examples can you think of? (Creative
Thinking 创造性思维)
The examples are all helpful if understanding the author’s idea.When
it comes to more examples, I can think of a chocolate advertisement:
“Milk fragrant, silky feel.”It not only reminds us of its silky smooth
taste, but also a peaceful and beautiful life.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Portia Kapraun has always seen unwelcome ads on Twitter, usually
from major brands pitching (竭力推销) her expensive jewelry or
vehicles that she, as a librarian in Indiana, could not afford. Ms
Kapraun was not interested. But she soon saw the ads again. And again.
And again.“These feel like low-end ads,” she said. In a shaky
advertising market in an uncertain economy, ads that few people want to
see suddenly seem to be everywhere.
Advancements in digital advertising technology were meant to
improve users’ experience. People interested in shoes are intended to get
ads for sneakers and boots, not repeated pitches promoting gold
investments. And the technology is supposed to remove misleading or
dangerous pitches. But lately, on several platforms, the opposite seems
to be happening for a variety of reasons, including a slowdown in the
overall digital ad market. As numerous deep-pocketed marketers have
pulled back, and the softer market has led several digital platforms to
lower their ad pricing, opportunities have opened up for less demanding
advertisers.
Advertising experts agree that poor-quality ads appear to be increasing
greatly. They point to a variety of potential causes: internal troubles at
technology companies, weak content moderation (审核), and high-
level advertisers seeking other choices. Then, there’s the economy:A
recent survey of 43 multinational companies representing more than $44
billion in advertising spending found that nearly 30 per cent planned to cut
back on their marketing spending last year.
Other factors are also contributing to lower advertising quality.Social
media advertising, once only practiced by specialists, is now easily
available to anyone.Many of them are avoiding targeted ads — placements
intended to reach specific audiences, usually at a higher cost — in favor
of a cheaper spray-and-pray (广撒网式的) approach online, hoping to
catch the attention of gullible (容易受骗的) or bored shoppers. “Major
social media platforms are now like a mall that used to be good,” Corey
Richardson, vice president at a multicultural ad company, says.“But
now there’s no longer a mall there — it’s just a calendar store and a place
selling beepers (传呼机).”

劣质广告为何越来越多。
本文是一篇议论文。文章主要分析了社交媒体平台上的
劣质广告为何越来越多。
1. What message does the author want to deliver in Portia Kapraun’s
story?
A. Repeated ads have a strong power of persuasion.
B. Social media users often encounter unwanted ads.
C. Major brands usually prefer social media advertising.
D. An uncertain economy leads to lower levels of consumption.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第一段中的Portia Kapraun has always ...

到自己不喜欢、不感兴趣的广告。
2. What can be inferred about the “less demanding advertisers”
mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. They are forced to exit the digital ad market.
B. They have benefited from advertising experts.
C. They can now advertise at a more affordable price.
D. They work hard to improve their users’ experience.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知,随着众多财
力雄厚的营销方退出数字广告市场,疲软的市场导致一些数字平
台降低了广告定价,这样一来,要求较低的广告商便获得了登广
告的机会。由此可推知,要求较低的广告商现在能以更实惠的价
格刊登广告。
3. What is Corey Richardson’s attitude to major social media platforms?
A. Favorable. B. Hopeful.
C. Unclear. D. Negative.
解析: 观点态度题。根据最后一段中Corey Richardson的话可

主流社交媒体平台是持负面态度的。
4. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Where Is Social Media Advertising Heading?
B. What Is Shaking Up the Online Advertising Market?
C. Why Are You Seeing So Many Bad Digital Ads Now?

解析: 标题归纳题。文章第一段讲述了一位社交媒体用户经
常看到自己不想看的劣质广告,由此引出本文话题,其余三段主
要分析了这类劣质广告越来越多的几个原因。故C项最适合作本
文标题。
B
When I checked into my hotel in Kaanapali, Maui, I was asked
what brought me to the island. I told the employees at the front desk that I
was writing a story about how to be a respectful tourist in Hawaii. One of
the staff members nodded with a significant smile and said he thought
tourists really have to be responsible.
What exactly does “responsible” mean? The state’s tourism board
has created a program so that it’s easier for tourists to figure it out — and
act accordingly.The Malama Hawaii Program is, on its surface, classic
voluntourism.Visitors spend a day cleaning a beach, say, in exchange
for a free night’s stay at their hotel. But there are a number of experiences
that focus on cultural stewardship (管理), and it’s that kind of
responsibility and respect that Native Hawaiians are increasingly looking
for.
The Lahaina Restoration Foundation offers one of these
experiences.Tourists can volunteer to help the foundation with its archives
(档案).The three-hour experience includes working with staff to
describe historical documents and measuring artifacts (手工艺品),
and a tailored tour of one of the foundation’s sites or museums.
Kalapana Kollars, the foundation’s cultural programs director, says
he is seeing increased interest from tourists in the island’s cultural
history.“That doesn’t mean that there aren’t other people that come here
just to enjoy the weather,” he says.“But when someone comes through
our door to join us here it’s a purposeful search.”
The experience runs just twice a week, which is intentional. Kollars
says:“We haven’t scaled up that much. We like our connection to be
really high grade instead of touching a lot of people very lightly.”
Micah Kamohoali is a cultural ambassador. For the past 10 years he’s
been working with the island’s tourism board to better reflect Native
Hawaiian culture and traditions.
Since, the tourism board has cooperated with Native Hawaiians to
develop the experiences available to visitors and the stories shared.“I
think it completely changed the face of our tourism,”Kamohoali
says.“Now we’re actually proud of it.We can have people learn about our
island in a responsible way.”

5. Why did the author go to Hawaii?
A. To take part in a cultural program.
B. To find inspiration for her writing.
C. To visit her friends.
D. To take a holiday.

front desk that I was writing a story about how to be a respectful tourist
in Hawaii.可知,作者去夏威夷是为了找一些写作灵感。
6. How can tourists get a free hotel stay after joining the Malama Hawaii
Program?
A. By cleaning beaches.
B. By taking photos for artworks.
C. By sorting historical documents.
D. By serving as a cultural ambassador.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Visitors spend a day
cleaning a beach, say, in exchange for a free night’s stay at their
hotel.可知,参加Malama Hawaii Program的游客可以通过清理沙滩获
得免费住宿的机会。
7. What does Kollars expect of the experience offered by the Lahaina
Restoration Foundation?
A. It can be more accessible to tourists.
B. It can attract more tourists to the island.
C. It can offer a wider range of activities to tourists.
D. It can help tourists go deeper into the island’s culture.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知,Kollars期待他们组
织的文化体验能够让游客沉浸式体验当地文化,而不是蜻蜓点水。
8. What does Kamohoali think of the effort made by the island’s tourism
board?
A. It is inspiring. B. It is ambitious.
C. It is successful. D. It is pioneering.
解析: 观点态度题。根据最后一段中的“I think it completely
changed the face of our tourism,”Kamohoali says.“Now we’re
actually proud of it.We can have people learn about our island in a
responsible way.”可知,Kamohoali 认为夏威夷旅游委员会的努力改
变了当地的旅游面貌,这让他感到自豪。由此可知,在Kamohoali
看来,这样的努力是成功的。

Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构
成一篇完整的短文。
Lola and I had been friends since we were little kids. Lola was a
smart, funny friend. But at school, Lola just didn’t fit in.Lola’s hair was
curly and her thick glasses made her look like a fish. Girls in our school
wore trendy, brand-name clothes, but Lola sewed hers. She stood out
like a sore thumb.
Sometimes, it was embarrassing to be around Lola. People said rude
things about her hair, clothes, glasses — even about the fact that she got
really good grades. Lola always seemed to be able to ignore what other
people thought, but I couldn’t. I started to keep my distance from her.
There was a talent show in our school each spring. Students would
sing, dance, play musical instruments, and do everything else to put in
their talent. Being our graduation season in this senior school, this year’s
talent show would be obviously different. It would be a huge night.
Maya, an outgoing girl wanted me to be on her dance team.“We
win the talent show every year, and we need a satisfactory graduation this
year,”Maya said excitedly.“We need a new dancer. But just you, not
her!” Maya pointed to someone behind me.
I didn’t have to turn around — I knew who she meant.“Uh,
sure,” I mumbled (咕哝). Maya was already heading out when I felt
someone tap on my shoulder. It was Lola. When I saw her confused face,
it was like waking up from a dream. Lola asked me if I was going to be in
the talent show. I hesitated without response.“That’s great,
Jane!”Lola said.“I’m going to participate this year, too!” I
couldn’t believe what I had heard.I even pictured Lola in front of a huge
crowd, everybody yelling and teasing. I was starting to worry.
The week passed quickly, and I barely saw Lola. I had to practice
every day with Maya and the team. The other dancers already knew the
steps, and I should keep up.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Finally, the talent show came, and I felt more and more nervous.
I walked off the stage and gave a glimpse of gratitude to Lola,
who was ready to sing.
参考范文:
Finally, the talent show came, and I felt more and more nervous. I
didn’t want to be different from the rest of the group. Lola found me and
gave me a big hug.“You’ll do great, Jane!” Lola comforted
me.“You’re a wonderful dancer. Don’t care too much about what others
think. Just be yourself.” Soon, I was taking my place on the stage. I
remembered every step and every move.When the music was over, the
crowd burst into cheers.
I walked off the stage and gave a glimpse of gratitude to Lola, who
was ready to sing.The crowd became restless. Could Lola ignore? Her
home-made dress was shining in the light, but her eyes were blurred. I
stood up, shouting, “Lola, you’re the best!” When Lola’s singing
drifted out, all the students became fascinated by her unique voice.Some
began singing with her, and then more, their singing echoing around the
hall. I rushed to the stage after her performance, hugging her
exuberantly.That’s enough! A big hug healed everything, and we would
never be estranged.

语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。文章主要分析了社交媒体平台上的劣质广告为何越来越多。
1.B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的Portia Kapraun has always ... And again.And again.可知,Portia Kapraun在社交媒体平台上反复看到自己不喜欢、不感兴趣的广告。

4.C 标题归纳题。文章第一段讲述了一位社交媒体用户经常看到自己不想看的劣质广告,由此引出本文话题,其余三段主要分析了这类劣质广告越来越多的几个原因。故C项最适合作本文标题。

参考范文:
Finally, the talent show came, and I felt more and more nervous. I didn’t want to be different from the rest of the group. Lola found me and gave me a big hug.“You’ll do great, Jane!” Lola comforted me.“You’re a wonderful dancer. Don’t care too much about what others think. Just be yourself.” Soon, I was taking my place on the stage. I remembered every step and every move.When the music was over, the crowd burst into cheers.
I walked off the stage and gave a glimpse of gratitude to Lola, who was ready to sing.The crowd became restless. Could Lola ignore? Her home-made dress was shining in the light, but her eyes were blurred. I stood up, shouting, “Lola, you’re the best!” When Lola’s singing drifted out, all the students became fascinated by her unique voice.Some began singing with her, and then more, their singing echoing around the hall. I rushed to the stage after her performance, hugging her exuberantly.That’s enough! A big hug healed everything, and we would never be estranged.

Advertising①: the power of persuasion②
In just one day, a person can see hundreds of marketing messages. Advertising has become part of modern life. But what is advertising exactly? In short③, it refers to④ the activity of promoting a product or service⑤. In other words⑥, it tries to persuade people to buy a product or service.
The history of advertising has always been closely linked with⑦ that of the mass media⑧. From the ancient simple advertisements painted on outdoor signs⑨ to the colourful, interactive ones in smartphone apps⑩, advertising and the mass media have developed hand in hand .[1]As media channels have grown in number and type, so have advertisements.

Because the mass media reaches so many people, it is a perfect vehicle for advertisers.[2]If an advertisement is placed on a popular website or on TV at peak times, a huge number of people will know about the product or service it is advertising.[3]In addition to making people aware of a product or service, a successful advertisement will also create a desire to buy, thus boosting business.[4]That is why when a company wants to promote a product or service, it often launches a mass media advertising campaign .
[1]句中As引导时间状语从句, 意为“随着……”;“so+助动词+另一个主语”结构,表示后者的情况和前者的一样。
[2]句中If引导条件状语从句;it is advertising为省略了关系代词that或which的定语从句,修饰先行词the product or service。
[3]动词-ing短语boosting business作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果。
[4]That is why ...意为“那就是为什么……”, why引导的表语从句中含有一个when引导的时间状语从句。
Based on the psychology behind creating a desire to buy, advertisers have developed ways of persuading people into purchasing their products or services.[5]A common technique to make an impact is to create a memorable slogan .[6]Slogans use simple but impressive language to make us remember the product or service being advertised. Some of these slogans may also appeal to our emotions.For example, a slogan may connect a fine china teapot it aims to promote with our pride in having good taste.[7]You will hear a variety of slogans any time you watch TV.Think about your favourite one.What makes it special? And what message does it try to get across ?A slogan which communicates an idea effectively can boost sales and even become part of popular culture.That is the power of memorable slogans.

[6]动词不定式短语to make us ...作目的状语;动词-ing短语being advertised作后置定语,修饰the product or service。
[7]any time引导时间状语从句,意为“无论何时……”。
Another technique advertisers often employ is to link their company or product to a “brand ambassador ”—a famous actor, a sports star, or even a fictional character .Think of a popular fast-food restaurant.Does it have a brand ambassador? Is the brand ambassador popular among potential customers?[8]The more we like the brand ambassador, the more we will be attracted to buy the product.

Of course, some advertisements are not so obvious: product placement is typically used in films with huge box-office success and TV shows with high ratings .[9]Some films are now sponsored by leading brands, so that only their products appear in the films, like the watches worn by the title character in the James Bond films.Other types of mass media use product placement too, including video games.[10]It is not uncommon for sports video game series to feature different in-game equipment with real brand names.[11]We absorb these marketing messages without thinking about them too much, yet they will probably have an effect on us the next time we go shopping.

[10]句中It作形式主语,动词不定式短语to feature ...作真正的主语。
[11]the next time引导时间状语从句,意为“下次……时”。
In the past, advertising was all about reaching as many people as possible with the same message.Now, advertising is becoming more digital and more personalized .Already we may see online advertisements for products or services we have previously searched for on the Internet, and we are very likely to receive special discounts and promotions targeted specifically at us.In the future, advertising will be even more about understanding individual customers and sending them advertisements that are tailored to specific needs.[12]Not only will this make them feel more valued and enable them to see what they are most interested in, but it will also help companies target their customers more efficiently to have a positive effect on sales.

【参考译文】
广告:说服的力量
短短一天之内,一个人就能见到数百条促销信息。广告已然成为现代生活的一部分。但是,广告究竟是什么呢?简单地说,广告指的是推销一种产品或服务的活动。换言之,它(广告)试图说服人们去购买一种产品或服务。
广告的历史一直以来都与大众传媒的历史息息相关。从古代画在户外招牌上的简单的广告到智能手机应用程序里丰富多彩的交互式广告,广告一直与大众传媒携手发展。随着媒体渠道数量的增加和类型的丰富,广告也在不断发展。
大众传媒的受众十分广泛,正因如此,广告商视其为广告宣传的完美工具。如果一则广告被投放在一个热门网站或黄金时段的电视上,许多人都会知晓它所宣传的产品或服务。除了让人们知晓产品或服务,一则成功的广告也会激发购买欲,从而促进业务增长。那就是为什么当一家公司想要推销产品或服务时,往往会在大众传媒上发起一场广告活动。
基于激发购买欲背后的心理特征,广告商开发了多种说服人们购买其产品或服务的方式。一种用于影响消费者的常见手段是创作一则令人难忘的广告语。广告语用简单但令人印象深刻的语言使我们记住它所宣传的产品或服务。有些广告语还能引起我们的情感共鸣。例如,一则广告语可能会用其打算推销的一款精美的瓷器茶壶让我们联想到拥有高雅的品味所带来的自豪感。无论何时打开电视,你都会听到各种各样的广告语。想想你最喜欢的那则广告。它有什么特别之处?它试图传达什么样的信息?一则有效传达一种理念的广告语可以增加销售量,甚至成为流行文化的一部分。这就是令人难忘的广告语所拥有的力量。
广告商常用的另一种手段是将其公司或产品与一位“品牌大使”联系起来,例如一位著名演员、体育明星,甚至是一个虚构人物。想想一家很受欢迎的快餐店。它有品牌大使吗?这位品牌大使是否受到潜在消费者的喜爱?我们越喜欢这位品牌大使,就越会受其吸引而去购买相关产品。
当然,有些广告并不那么明显。在超高票房的电影或高收视率的电视节目中,植入式广告是很典型的。如今一些电影由知名品牌赞助,因而只有该品牌的产品会出现在电影中,比如“007”系列电影的主人公詹姆斯·邦德佩戴的手表。其他类型的大众传媒也会采用植入式广告,包括电子游戏。在体育电子游戏系列中,用真实的品牌名给不同的游戏装备命名的做法并不罕见。我们没有多加考虑就记住了这些促销信息,而它们有可能会在我们下次购物时对我们产生影响。
在过去,广告只是要向尽可能多的人传播同样的信息。而现在,广告则变得更加数字化与个性化。我们或许已经见过针对自己之前在网上搜索过的产品或服务的在线广告,而且很可能会收到专门为我们定制的特殊折扣和促销活动。在未来,广告将更注重对个体消费者的了解,并向他们发送针对其特定需求而特制的广告。这不仅会让消费者觉得自己更受重视,还能让他们看到自己最感兴趣的内容,此外也能帮助公司更加有效地锁定目标客户,从而对销售量产生积极影响。

1.The first and the last sentences in each of the three paragraphs make up the main idea of the paragraph, echoing and explaining each other.
2.The examples are all helpful if understanding the author’s idea.When it comes to more examples, I can think of a chocolate advertisement:“Milk fragrant, silky feel.”It not only reminds us of its silky smooth taste, but also a peaceful and beautiful life.
