Text 1
Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of. It serves
directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable price, thereby
establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at
competitive prices. By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise
standards of living. By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need for
labour, and is therefore an effective way to fight unemployment. It lowers the costs
。 - 10 -
of many services: without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four
times as much, the price of your television license would need to be doubled, and
travel by bus or tube would cost 20 per cent more.
And perhaps most important of all, advertising provides a guarantee of
reasonable value in the products and services you buy. Apart from the fact that
twenty-seven acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular
advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his
advertisements. He might fool some people for a little while through misleading
advertising. He will not do so for long, for mercifully the public has the good sense
not to buy the inferior article more than once. If you see an article consistently
advertised, it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it,
and that it represents good value.
Advertising does more for the material benefit of the community than any other
force I can think of.
There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on. Recently I heard a
well-known television personality declare that he was against advertising because it
persuades rather than informs. He was drawing excessively fine distinctions. Of
course advertising seeks to persuade.
If its message were confined merely to information -- and that in itself would be
difficult if not impossible to achieve, for even a detail such as the choice of the
colour of a shirt is subtly persuasive -- advertising would be so boring that no one
would pay any attention. But perhaps that is what the well-known television
personality wants.
51. By the first sentence of the passage the author means that ________.
[A] he is fairly familiar with the cost of advertising
[B] everybody knows well that advertising is money consuming
[C] advertising costs money like everything else
[D] it is worthwhile to spend money on advertising
52. In the passage, which of the following is NOT included in the advantages of
advertising?
[A] Securing greater fame.
[C] Enhancing living standards.
[B] Providing more jobs.
[D] Reducing newspaper cost.
53. The author deems that the well-known TV personality is ________.
[A] very precise in passing his judgment on advertising
[B] interested in nothing but the buyers’ attention
[C] correct in telling the difference between persuasion and information
