Read the passage carefully then do the activities:


Advertising has become a very specialized activity in modern times. In the business world today,
supply is usually greater than demand.
There is a great competition between different manufacturers of the same kind of product to
persuade consumers to buy their favourite brand. They always have to remind the consumer of the
name and the qualities of their products. They do this by advertising.
The manufacturer advertises in the newspapers and on posters. He sometimes pays for songs
about his product in commercial radio programmes.He employs attractive girls to distribute
samples of it. He organises competitions with prices for winners. He has often advertised on the
screen of local cinemas, but more importantly, he has advertisements put on TV programmes that
would accept them.
The advertisement in a newspaper is cheaper than on television. However, many businessmen
think that television is more effective than either a newspaper or commercial radios.
