Do you agree with the following statement? Advertisements have too much influence on what people buy.
你同意或不同意以下說(shuō)法:廣告對(duì)人們購(gòu)買的東西影響太大?
【高分回答】
I agree. Today, many companies are investing heavily in advertising and grabbing the customer's attention. Hence, the effect advertising has on what people buy is undeniable.
One of the primary reasons for this is that advertising provides an atmosphere within which people can become familiar with a new product. It is obvious that no-one ever buys a product they are unaware of. Advertising is the bridge between company and customer. Once aware of a product, the customer thinks about it and consequently feels a need to own/consume it.
Additionally, advertising has the potential to change the public’s perspective and beliefs. Many psychologists have explained that when an audience watches an advertisement over and over, after a while he or she accepts the product. This may happen even when the person did not initially hold the product in high regard. This is the the best evidence of the power of advertising.
我同意。今天,許多公司在廣告方面投入巨資以此吸引顧客的注意力。因此,廣告對(duì)人們購(gòu)買的影響是不可否認(rèn)的。
其中一個(gè)主要原因是廣告給人們提供了一種熟悉新產(chǎn)品的氛圍。很明顯,沒有人買過他們不知道的產(chǎn)品。廣告是公司與顧客之間的橋梁。一旦意識(shí)到一個(gè)產(chǎn)品,顧客就會(huì)考慮它,從而覺得有必要擁有/消耗它。
此外,廣告有可能改變公眾的觀點(diǎn)和信仰。許多心理學(xué)家解釋說(shuō),當(dāng)觀眾一次又一次地觀看廣告時(shí),他或她會(huì)接受產(chǎn)品。即使當(dāng)人們最初不重視產(chǎn)品這還是可能發(fā)生。這是廣告的力量的最好證據(jù)。

這篇托福獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)真題高分回答在最開始就簡(jiǎn)單直白陳述了觀點(diǎn),之后的兩小段分別從營(yíng)造消費(fèi)氛圍和改變公眾觀念這兩個(gè)角度進(jìn)行了理由闡述,中間給出了“沒有人買他們不知道的產(chǎn)品”的反例和心理學(xué)家的解釋進(jìn)行佐證,這些答題思路和亮眼表達(dá)我們都可以借鑒應(yīng)用到自己的托福獨(dú)立口語(yǔ)練習(xí)中,另外大家要注意平時(shí)進(jìn)行托福口語(yǔ)練習(xí)也要模仿實(shí)考時(shí)掐著時(shí)間點(diǎn)并進(jìn)行錄音,在多聽自己錄音反思的過程中收獲托福口語(yǔ)能力的提升。
