Advertisement— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Your answer has a clear direct response, relevant examples, and a good contrast using “although.” However, “online adversity” is incorrect and appears to be an unfinished or misused expression; say “online advertising” instead. You could also end with a complete concluding sentence explaining why online advertisements are common or influential.

Ví dụ: Yes, quite frequently. Whenever I browse social media, watch YouTube videos, or search for something online, I come across advertisements. Although some of them are informative, I sometimes find them annoying, particularly when they interrupt a video I’m enjoying. Overall, online advertising is almost impossible to avoid nowadays.

Gợi ý: You provide relevant childhood details and explain why the advertisements were memorable. However, the final sentence is grammatically incomplete: “those advertisement” should be “those advertisements were memorable” or “those advertisements influenced me.” Use the plural form “advertisements” consistently, and add a specific example of a toy or snack if possible.

Ví dụ: Yes, I remember advertisements for children’s toys and colourful snacks that I saw on television. They often featured catchy songs, bright colours, and cheerful characters, which made them memorable. I can’t recall a particular brand now, but I still remember how excited I felt whenever those advertisements appeared. They made the products seem fun and appealing.

Gợi ý: Your response answers the question directly and includes a useful local reason and contrast. Correct the grammar in “or sign along busy roads” to “or signs along busy roads,” and change “transport advertisement” to “transport advertisements” or “advertising on public transport.” You could make the comparison clearer by mentioning that buses have more advertisements than trains in your area.

Ví dụ: I occasionally notice advertisements on buses, especially posters displayed inside them and signs along busy roads. Since buses are a common means of transport in Sri Lanka, they provide businesses with an effective way to reach a large audience. However, I don’t see as much advertising on trains, probably because I use buses more often. Bus advertisements are therefore the most noticeable to me.

Gợi ý: The answer has a strong balanced structure and appropriate linking with “however.” Replace “exturgate” with “exaggerate,” and use “repeatedly” instead of “repeatably.” The final sentence is incomplete; finish it with “rather than simply trying to attract attention” or a similar phrase. A brief example would make your opinion more specific.

Ví dụ: It depends on the type of advertisement. I appreciate creative and informative ones that introduce useful products or services. However, I dislike advertisements that exaggerate a product’s benefits or repeatedly interrupt what I’m watching. In my opinion, advertising is useful when it is honest and relevant rather than simply trying to attract attention.

Gợi ý: You express a clear preference and give relevant categories, such as education and environmental protection. However, the second sentence has a grammatical problem: “in advertisements promoting...” should be “advertisements promoting...” or “I often like advertisements promoting....” Capitalization should be consistent, and the final sentence needs a noun, such as “simple, visually attractive advertisements.” Add one concrete example of a message you find memorable.

Ví dụ: I particularly enjoy advertisements that tell a compelling story or deliver a meaningful message. For instance, advertisements promoting education, environmental protection, or family values often appeal to me because they create an emotional connection with the audience. I also appreciate simple, visually attractive advertisements that are easy to understand. A short advertisement encouraging people to protect the environment would probably leave a strong impression on me.

Gợi ý: Your answer is well organized and gives a sensible purchasing process with specific details. Correct “something look appealing” to “something looks appealing.” The final sentence is incomplete; finish it with “influence my decisions, but they do not determine what I buy.” Adding a specific product you tried would make the answer more personal and effective.

Ví dụ: Yes, I have occasionally been persuaded to try a product after seeing an advertisement online. However, I don’t usually make an immediate purchase just because something looks appealing. I prefer to compare prices, read customer reviews, and consider whether I genuinely need the item. For example, I once bought a skin-care product after seeing an advertisement, but only after checking its reviews first. Advertisements can influence my decisions, but they do not determine what I buy.

× I suppose online adversity.

✓ I suppose online advertising can sometimes be annoying.

The original sentence is incomplete because the verb can be is missing after online advertising. A complete sentence needs a subject and a verb. The word advertising is also the appropriate noun for commercial messages.

× Although I can't recall a particular brand now, I remember how those advertisement.

✓ Although I can't recall a particular brand now, I remember how memorable those advertisements were.

Those refers to more than one item, so the plural noun advertisements is required instead of the singular noun advertisement.

× Although I can't recall a particular brand now, I remember how those advertisement.

✓ Although I can't recall a particular brand now, I remember how memorable those advertisements were.

The clause beginning with how is incomplete in the original sentence because it has no main verb. The verb were completes the clause and makes the sentence grammatical.

× Since buses are a common means of transport in Sri Lanka, they provide businesses with an effective way to reach a large audience. However, I don't think I see as many transport advertisement.

✓ Since buses are a common means of transport in Sri Lanka, they provide businesses with an effective way to reach a large audience. However, I don't think I see as many transport advertisements.

The phrase as many refers to countable plural nouns, so advertisements must be plural.

× I occasionally notice advertisements on buses, particularly posters displayed inside them or sign along busy roads.

✓ I occasionally notice advertisements on buses, particularly posters displayed inside them or signs along busy roads.

The sentence refers to more than one sign along busy roads, so the plural form signs is needed.

× However, I dislike advertisements that exturgate a product's benefits or repeatably interrupt what I'm watching.

✓ However, I dislike advertisements that exturgate a product's benefits or repeatedly interrupt what I'm watching.

Repeatedly is the correct adverb for an action that happens again and again. Repeatably generally means capable of being repeated and does not fit this context.

× In my opinion, advertising is useful when it is honest and relevant rather than simply.

✓ In my opinion, advertising is useful when it is honest and relevant rather than simply being disruptive.

The phrase rather than simply is incomplete because it is not followed by a verb or a complete complement. Adding being disruptive completes the comparison and makes the sentence grammatical.

× For instance, in advertisements promoting education, Environmental Protection or family value often appeal to me because they create an emotional connection with the audience.

✓ For instance, advertisements promoting education, environmental protection, or family values often appeal to me because they create an emotional connection with the audience.

Family values is normally used as a plural expression when referring to a set of beliefs. The plural form values is therefore appropriate here.

× I also appreciate simple, visually attractive.

✓ I also appreciate simple, visually attractive advertisements.

The original sentence is incomplete because the adjectives simple and visually attractive do not modify a noun. Adding advertisements gives the sentence a complete object.

× However, I don't usually make an immediate purchase just because something look appealing.

✓ However, I don't usually make an immediate purchase just because something looks appealing.

Something is a third-person singular subject, so the present-tense verb must take the -s form: looks.

× I think advertisements can influence.

✓ I think advertisements can influence my purchasing decisions.

The verb influence normally needs a direct object in this meaning. Adding my purchasing decisions completes the sentence and clearly states what advertisements can influence.
