Advertisement has both Advantage and Disadvantage to Our Daily Life There are more and more different kinds of advertisements in modern life. When we watch the television, we can see lots of advertisements are appearing in the show or during the break time, for example, during the Super Bowl in 2011 there were lots of advertisements, it was so many ads that ads are becoming part of the game. Because ads are in everywhere we lived, ads are already being the one part of our life. While every coin has two sides, ads are the same situation. Advertisements have good and bad influence to people. When people saw the advertisements to learn the new produce, they also have to think about whether the information to produce introduction is true or not. So, in my eyes, advertisements have both advantages and disadvantages in people’s life. Advertisements have good influence for people. People know the product from advertisements whatever in television, magazines or Internet. So, ads really convenient for people, we don't need find the newest products to go to the mall instead of staying in home read the magazines, watch the TV or search in the Internet. So, this is the one thing that advertisements make people's life easier. In addition, charity advertisements can let people pay more attention to other needed people, for example, AIDS advertisement and Helping children advertisement. Those are really good way to teach people how to take care others. Like advertisement of helping children to go to school, they tell people if everyone donate ten or more dollars, children have chance to go to school instead of staying at home. And some words in advertisement are may become popular words in daily life. In this way, advertisements are really convenience to people's life and make our life our varied, and they will learn new produces very quickly. On the other hand, advertisements have a worse effect on people. In Barber's view,

    The original definition of the word “advertising” does not look that bad. It is simply explained as “calling the attention of the public to a product or business.” However, the advertising companies usually abuse the real meaning of advertising and try to sell their product no matter what it takes to do so. It is very hard not to notice advertisement in today’s world. The commercials, the adds, the posters are everywhere; from TV, newspapers magazines and billboards to even a bus that is taking us to work everyday. Advertising companies know exactly how to get into our heads and how to convince us to buy their product instead of thousands of the different ones. No one can argue that advertising is influential, but there are a lot of critics and journalists that try to convince us to believe that it is not only harmless, but influential to us. One of them is John E. Calfee who in his essay “How Advertising Informs to Our Benefit” tries his hardest to prove that advertising has a positive impact on us. In his essay, Calfee gives very strong arguments supported by research and statistics, which unfortunately would probably convince an average American to agree with his ideas.…

    The quote “The bravest of individuals is the one who obeys his conscience” was once said by a man named J.F. Clark. Many situations will be faced by many people, but the bravest ones are the ones who listen to their conscience. It takes real courage to stand up for what’s right and no to support what is wrong. The novel To Kill a Mockingbird, written by Harper Lee, is great example to help prove this point. J.F. Clark’s idea can help be proven true after one examines two things. After reading To Kill a Mockingbird there are many characters that can help support his idea. Atticus and “Boo” Radley are the two characters that best support the quote presented.…

    Society try's to keep people from expressing their own ideas and/or interests. Since society thinks this way, many people feel as if that is the only way to think. In the short story, The sociology of leopard man the author Logan Feys states," society tends to discourage people from expressing their unique ideas and behaving in ways that are different from their peers". In my opinion there's definitely a time to act serious but there is also a time to let loose and get away from society and just be yourself.…

    Niemöller would give the advice to speak up and speak out for what you believe in or to help someone because later on there might be someone left to speak out for you. The speaker would most likely not agree with that perspective, from the first passage it seems to me the speaker is more of a silent learner. But something could happen to him like with Niemöller where he didn't speak up and then there was no one left to speak up for him. Not being silent could help not only you but a lot of people later on. Niemöller learned that if he would have spoke up there could have possibly been someone left to speak up for him. The Speaker should have spoke up because he could have saved a lot of people like the mother being misused by her children and being neglected. The speaker could have spoke up and possibly saved that mother or made her life easier to deal with. To watch cruel things happen and not speak up will come to haunt you in you end. There could be additional consequence to speaking up where your opinion was not necessarily wanted but it could also help.…
