[00:01.34]The top advertisers of today
[00:03.69]believe that using humour as well as new
[00:06.04]and unusual ideas to surprise people
[00:08.98]is important in modern advertisements.
[00:11.68]Their aim is to create something
[00:13.23]that has never been seen before
[00:15.45]and is fascinating for people to look at.
[00:18.02]By doing this, they hope to make people forget
[00:20.73]that someone is trying to sell them something!
[00:23.88]However, not all advertising
[00:25.78]is about selling products and services
[00:28.02]for a profit.
[00:29.52]Some contemporary advertisements
[00:30.94]mainly aim to make contributions to society.
[00:34.33]There are public advertisements
[00:35.67]which encourage citizens to participate
[00:37.93]in improving their neighbourhood,
[00:39.95]protecting the environment,
[00:41.50]and helping other people.
[00:43.05]Over the last dacade,
[00:44.38]the government has worked hard
[00:45.73]at using advertisements to educate the public
[00:48.38]on fighting AIDS, saving water,
[00:50.57]helping the poor, giving up smoking, etc.
[00:53.69]These advertisements have helped
[00:55.33]to increase public knowledge,
[00:56.93]which has made our society a better place
[00:59.03]for everyone.
