28、 Children experience advertising in many forms — on TV, radio, magazines, newspapers, movies, the Internet, text messages, social media and more. And advertising works on children. For example, the more TV a child watches, the more toys that child is likely to want and ask for. This is why it's important for children to learn that advertisements are trying to make people purchase something. And advertisers always aim to make their products look good, perhaps even better than they really are.
Advertising affects children in different ways. How children think of advertising can depend on several things, including their age, what they know or have experienced.
At 0-2 years, children can't tell the difference between advertising and actual programs.
At 3-6 years, children can recognize advertisements and tell them from programs, but they don't understand that ads are trying to sell something. And they are likely to think of advertisements as being funny.
At 7-11 years, when children go to primary school, they can understand that advertisements are trying to sell them something, remember advertising messages and recognize some advertising techniques (策略) like advertisements overstating (夸大) how good products are. However, they might not always understand that products aren't as good as advertisements say they are, or that advertisers might not be telling them any of the products' bad points.
To limit the effects of advertising on school-age children, the most important thing parents can do is talk about advertisements and encourage their children to think about what they're trying to do.
It's a good idea to focus on the advertisements that a child sees most often. For example, parents can get their children thinking and developing a questioning attitude. In other words, what's the product in this advertisement? What is it for? Who is it for?
They can also ask their children about the techniques that are being used to sell a product. This can help them work out how an advertisement makes its product look good.
【1】What does the underlined word "purchase" in Paragraph I mean?
A.Watch. B.Say.
C.Buy. D.Discuss.
【2】What do children aged 0-2 think of advertisements?
A.They are pretty funny. B.They are trying to sell toys.
C.They are being shown in many ways. D.They are no different from other programs.
【3】At what age can children know advertisements are not telling the truth?
A.2. B.3.
C.5. D.8.
【4】How can parents limit the influence of advertising on their children?
A.By guiding them to see through advertisements.
B.By teaching them how to run advertisements.
C.By buying advertised products and comparing them.
D.By talking about the most successful advertisements.
