One of the most authoritative (权威的) voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of
the advertisers. This type of voice dominates our lives. It shouts at us from the television screen
and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the
roadside billboards all day and flashes messages to us in coloured lights all night. It has forced
on us a whole new conception of the successful man as a man no less than 20% of whose mall consists
of announcements of giant carpet sales.
Advertising has been among England's biggest growth industries since the war, in terms of the
ratio of money earnings to demonstrable achievement. Why all this huge expenditure?
Perhaps the answer is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the
customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about
without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without
adding customer- appeal(讨好顾客的) to all his other problems of man- hours and machine tolerances
and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to
find eleven ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending
that it attracts love, or signifies manliness. If the advertising agency can do this
authoritatively enough, the manufacturer is in a favorable position.
Other manufacturers find advertising saves them changing their product. And manufacturers hate
change. The ideal product is one which goes on unchanged for ever. If, therefore, for one reason
or another, some changes seems called for how much better to change the image, the packet or the
pitch made by product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.（分数：4.00）
